A Tale of Grendel Love
There
was once an Albia without a Grendel Mother Tree. So, obviously there were
two Grendels, a male and a female.
The two grendels spent much of their time taunting one another, and playing practical jokes to annoy each other. They would tip-toe up behind one another, and WHACK!
Targ would run laughing from the furious Ms. Oogle.
But one day they began to feel differently toward one another...

Targ, trying to express his newfound feelings, offers Oogle a flower.
She accepts the flower, then hits him. Targ flees from her anger, crying "Targ hurt!" Broken-hearted, the male grendel wanders away to nurse his wounds. And to take his anger out on an unsuspecting norn or two.

Alone, Oogle carries the flower with her for over half an hour.
Oogle
catches up to Targ and the two have a few drinks. They slap one another
a great deal (grendels aren't particularly gentle creatures) and even kiss
one another a few times. They kiss-POP several times.
Oogle lays an egg. She seems very pleased. The egg grows (just like a norn's egg) until it is large enough to go into the incubator.
The
egg hatches. Out pops the new-born, full sized grendel. It's a boy! They
decide to name him Gobo.
He rides up the lift and joins his parents. Together, the family goes out to explore an Albia with three Grendels.
Look out, Norns!
