You decide to visit Fikos. His path is short, and you can see its destination from where you stand -- a pile of grey stones surrounding a deep pond. You jog the distance in a minute or less, and arrive at the grey rocks to find no sign of Fikos. However, as you search, you suddenly are sprayed with a large amount of water. A second later, you're staring into the eyes of a rather large, bright blue snake.
The snake stays still inspecting you for a moment, before slithering up to coil on a grey rock close to you. "Hello, ssstranger," the snake says, its tongue flickering in and out of its mouth while it's not speaking. "What bringsss you here to the home of Fikosss?"
"Hi, Fikos," you reply nervously, prepared to run if the snake strikes. "I'm exploring Dracogrex, and I thought I'd like to meet you."
"Welcome," the snake says. You notice a rather sly tone to its voice, which makes you nervous. "I am the one and only Fikosss, and I mussst sssay that I am glad to have sssuch unexpected company...." Fikos smirks, his tongue flickering in and out like a whip.
"Er...good," you say quickly, shifting your feet. "So...how'd you get here?"
Fikos smiles lazily. "A ssstory I love to tell," he says, resting his head on the rock. "Amaryllisss came by Zykiox to adopt, and ssshe wasss one of the firssst onesss. Ssshe got firssst pick on any egg ssshe wissshed. Of courssse, ssshe had jussst begun to populate the Ocean Realm, and ssshe chossse a water-type egg. It hatched into me." Fikos twisted his serpentine body, flexing his mucsles in a casual stretch. "I ssspeak for her: Oopssss." He then laughs an evil, hissing laugh, slithering down from his rock and into the pool again. "Enjoy the ressst of your tour. Ssso long...."
And you run out of there as quickly as is humanly possible.
