>You find yourself teleported into the middle of a busy city street. You can't read any of the signs. They're in...Chinese? Tanis frowns
>"Odd. The traveling talismans should have taken us right to Sibella. But this doesn't look like her place at all.
>The ground rumbles. Softly at first, and then louder and louder. The surrounding crowd shrieks in terror and runs away in a fright. Tanis sighs.

>In the middle of her sentence, a great scaled beast comes over the horizon, smoke rising from its nose and atomic breath roaring from its open mouth.
>In the middle of its rampage, it spots the two of you, and bends down to get a better look.
>"Tanis? Tanis from Grimwood? Heyy, how are you doing, gurl?" To your surprise, the grumbly-voiced monster has a valley girl accent

>Tanis's face is a mask of annoyance as she prepares the talisman for another teleport. "Fucking Godiva. Always trying to act nice when she's in the middle of destroying civilization. You don't see me or the swamp girl bringing cities to their knees, do you? That's because we have fucking taste"
