"Greetings!" I called up, "May I be the first to welcome you to -"
I paused, noting the look of surprise on her face, as she looked about, the surroundings obviously alien to her. Ah, a newcomer, I thought. Should have expected such, with the position of the stars and all. Humans rarely made the Crossing, and usually when they did, it was accidental.
"This can't be real! I must be dreaming! I can tell you're thinking! Well, maybe it is, maybe it is'nt! Maybe you are and maybe you're not! One persons dream is another persons reality, and we all have to live somewhere, hmm?" I said, smiling. "Who- ? Where- ? I see I've startled you some! My apologies, fair maiden!"
"To the who, the answer is Pelf!" I continued, "and to the where, is down here, at your left hip!" I said, reaching a hand up and tapping a finger against the bare skin of her midriff above the strange dark blue pants she wore, and she blinked and looked down to me. "What am I? A pocket elf! Whats a pocket elf? I am one, for one, but lets get back to where you came in, shall we? Hmm, where was I... ah yes, the greetings! May I be the first to welcome you to -"
"Welcome to Pornitopia," Loop said, with a curt nod towards her.
"Trolls dangleybits! That was going to be my line, you know!" I said, throwing a despairing glance at him, where he hovered nearby on the back of his mount. Loop was an old friend, but quite impatient. Patience wasn't a virtue many of the faerie knights possessed, of course, or any faerie, come to think of it. He rode on the back of a large horsefly, and carried a lance twice my own height in length from which his pennant fluttered.
Loop replied, lifting his silver visor, "you were taking your time, Pelf."
"Well then," I said, looking back up to the newcomer, "may I be the second to welcome you to the magical realm of Pornotopia, fair maiden!"
I smiled brightly, doffing my mousefur cap to her. "Pelf... guide, linguist, and pocket bodyguard... humbly at your service!"
