[UPBEAT INTRO MUSIC] Hey guys, what’s up? LDShadowLady here and welcome back to Empires. Where I have been trying to solve the mystery behind all the strange happenings here in the Ocean Empire lately. First, this weird endalotl showed up, writing me cryptic messages. Then the axolotl started talking to me and then I find out, Jimmy can commune with fish as well. And I am determined to figure out what is behind all this. So to start my research, I figured if the endalotl was leaving me messages in books, Maybe there was some useful information in some other books somewhere out there. So I scoured the entire world, from the church of the Blood Sheep, to the Overgrown, from Rivendell, to the Lost Empire, where I accidentally found something I shouldn’t have. What is this? What in Xornorths beard is this? I don’t want to know anymore. I’m backing up. I wish I never looked in there. Eventually, I collected every single book and I read through all of them. Most of them were really boring, but I did find some useful information. Here is the book of prophecies past and future. Kindred Spirits, Dark possession, destruction of property. Bla. Bla. Bla. Blue axolotl heir. Aha, two ancient sea dwellers ruled the oceans long before human empires ever stood, each able to communicate with creatures of the sea. But should they ever leave the ocean behind, they are doomed to forget their true selves and their past. Could that be me and Jimmy the ancient sea dwelling creatures? It would explain a lot about our connection to the ocean and why we don’t remember each other, but I don’t know why we would ever leave the ocean in the first place and it doesn’t explain where we came from until I found, This book, ocean folklore. Thousands of years ago, a monstrous creature dominated the oceans. The creature had the head of a codfish and a body, like a salamander, four small webbed feet, and a long tail. After centuries of loneliness, the creature called upon the ocean gods And laid a clutch of eggs on a rocky island. Soon after the creature began to wither away and die, leaving the eggs unprotected. In time, all but two of the were destroyed, leaving one large pristine egg and one smaller damaged egg. From the large egg, hatched a four-legged amphibious being with gills and colourful fins. The amphibious being seized the remaining damaged egg and disappeared into the murky depths of the cold ocean. Never to be seen again. Now, I could be wildly wrong here. But this amphibious being with gills and colourful fins. Well, that sounds a lot like me these days. So I think think I hatched from an egg, and this little damaged egg, that must have been Jimmy. I have to let him know what I found. Jimmy: Lizzie! Jimmy. Jimmy: Oh my gosh, have I got some news for you! Wait, I’ve got news for you too. Jimmy: Wait who wants to go first? I’ll go first, quickly into the embassy. Jimmy: Okay. This might not work. It’s a little cramped in here. Jimmy: Two ancient sea dwellers ruled the oceans long before human empires ever stood? Jimmy: Wait, that sounds like us! Were we the eggs? I think we were the eggs. Jimmy: Are you saying of a small damaged egg? I think you came from a small damaged egg, it would explain a lot. Jimmy: True. Jimmy: But that kind of explains the book I’ve got. Read this one. What is this? Jimmy: This is from you. Jimmy my beloved brother, For hundreds of years I protected your egg, waiting patiently for you to emerge. The day you hatched, I vowed I would always protect you but since the salmon invaded, our ocean, you just haven’t been the same. I am venturing onto land to discover the source of the salmon, so we can end this blight. Oceans blessings always, Lizzie. I wrote that? When? Where did you find this? Jimmy: I just found it. I was just over at my base in the cod said, Jimmy: “oh you might have forgotten something”, and there it was that book. Jimmy: So I must have had it for for ages, You’re telling me that the secret to our identity has been sitting in one of your chests this whole time? Jimmy: Maybe. Maybe so, yes, probably. You definitely came from the small damaged egg. Jimmy: I’m… I am the small damaged egg, yes. Jimmy: This explains so much though. Does this mean that we’re seablings? I think we are. Jimmy: Oh my gosh. I must have left onto the land and that’s why we forgot each other. Jimmy: Yeah I’m sorry I left. Jimmy: No, no, don’t be sorry. I turned out fine, right? Sure. Yes. Maybe we should kill more salmon. That’ll make us feel better. Jimmy: Yeah Together: Kill the salmon, kill the salmon. Goodbye, brother. Jimmy: Goodbye! So I’m ancient sea creature and I have a little brother now. Katherine: Hello. Hello Katherine, welcome. Katherine: Congratulations on finding your family. Oh, thank you. Katherine: This is for you. Is Jimmy around? Ah no, he’s not online right now. Can I take a message? Katherine: Okay. Well, those are for him. I will pass them on. That’s what sisters are for, right? Actually, while you’re here, there’s a favor I’d like to ask you, would you follow me? Katherine: Sure. Okay, down here. You can swim right? Katherine: Yes. Okay. Good. Welcome to The Grotto. Katherine: Whoa, this is so pretty. Katherine: You got some boots, oh a stick. Katherine: I like the stick, thats fun. But there’s one thing I’m looking for and I just can’t find it. Have you seen anything like this? Katherine: What is that? I don’t know. Katherine: I have never seen that before in my life. Okay. Well, if you ever see anything that looks like this, please tell me. Katherine: If I find it, I’ll let you know. The message bell rings. You know what this means, we have received a message from my ally in the south. “Ocean Queen I think Scott has the item you’re looking for, House Blossom.” Oh my goodness. Scott has the artifact. I need to make a deal with him. There must be something in here, he’s willing to trade for. It’s all a bunch of junk. But maybe I can polish it up and make it seem valuable? Scott: Oh! Hello Ocean Queen. Hello Scott. Scott: I hear you have quite the collection down here. Scott: Would you be willing to make a trade? Why yes I would. Let me show you around.
