Welcome to Gaia! ::

Iori nodded, "Yeah, the kid shows promise all right. And he earns what he gets. Unlike the one you hate married to Zane, Corrigan doesn't brag and I don't often brag about others, but I guess the kid earned some praise. Now, before I end up going all mushy, we better finish eating so we can get this chair activated. The sooner we get to Azeroth the better. I want to see what Hyoga was so nervous about and that guy doesn't scare easily."

Meanwhile in Azeroth, Trunks Truesdale was busy doing what he does best and that was collecting materials and defeating the alliance. He had with him his trusty pet Dranzer dragon hawk who was enjoying burning everything in sight.

Truesdale was an engineer in Azeroth and he had heard how his father and Andy were working at building a unique castle. It was supposed to be one that was better than his mom's and Iori's castle. He laughed thinking at how in the galaxy that Andy was going to beat Iori's castle. That castle was the best in terms of its authentic spookiness and its unique design.

After getting a bunch of parts and some design ideas, he headed towards the mists of Pandaria where he was going to take a Kite taxi to the Great wall of Pandaria that led to Orochi way. He had to get close to the dread wastes in order to find the proper staircase, an area he did not like, but it was going to be worth it.

He had to wonder if he was going to end up seeing Iori in passing through because there was a rumor that he was coming to Azeroth. Some sort of conspiracy the dwarves were speaking about who passed the rumor to the gnomes who passed the rumor to the goblins. As well, he had heard that Ice Yagami was coming to live in Dun Morogh, which meant, if Ice wound up transforming into a dwarf, Trunks was allowed to kill him. He only hoped that Ice turned into a troll instead. Not likely, but possible.

Finding his way, he reached the dread wastes's secret staircase, but not before running into a swarm of mantid. Mantid were disgusting bugs that resembled locusts. "Ugh," Trunks complained, "I hate these things and I am always doing this solo."

Dranzer growled hearing what Trunks said, then Trunks corrected himself and said, "Save for Dranzer that is."

Iori smirked at the question then said, "Hold on tight because I was never one for doing things slow. This chair is about to go into overdrive."

As if to sound purposefully commercial, he slammed his fist on the red button in the center of the table and with that, the chair did its thing by first slowly moving to the center of the hallway where guard rails appeared on either side of them. Then 10 seconds later, as fast as a bullet train, the chair sped down Orochi way, by passed Hyrule and, hovering over Pandaria's great wall, literally dumped Iori and Saya out of the chair.

Iori began laughing as there was a free-fall moment then, as if this was all part of the ride, but wasn't, two gigantic plains hawks caught them. "I hope you know how to steer one of these things, Saya because if you don't, its gonna let you finish your fall to your doom."

Iori's bird had no such luxuries as a leather seat and he only hoped that Saya wouldn't regret stealing the one she was on. But, in answer to Saya's question, Iori replied, "I do. We are to head to the Shrine of Seven stars. Once there, we can take a portal directly to Ironforge. By the way, that bird you are on, it must belong to someone who was on that wall. Birds that come equipped with harnesses and saddles are level 60 and above mounts. I did my research on what the difference is. My bird is wild and harder to tame, but this bird is mine now."

Just as Iori had said that, an orc from on the wall began shouting curses before dashing over to one of the harpoon launchers that the pandas use and aimed the projectile weapons at Saya!

Noticing this, Iori commanded his bird to shove saya's bird to dump Saya out so to save Saya's life. As Saya began falling, Iori was swift with his bird and caught her so no damage was done to her.

"That was a close one. Now you get to ride with me. Damned orcs though. They always seem to want to start trouble. Not willing to say please or thank you."

"That is true," Iori chuckled, "Though a wise panda once said never to get an orc angry. You weren't here last Christmas, but we had quite a few residents of this planet come for Dee's annual Christmas Party. One of them was a pretty interestingly looking Panda."

Meanwhile, back on Planet Hamster, Dee decided to help Mr. Meyer with cleaning up the Pao Pao cafe from the wintery disaster. She asked him a bunch of questions. One of them being, "So, like, other than that time when Terry met Lily here, were there any other interesting situations that Terry had been into, Richard?"

" What was so interesting about this panda?" Saya asked.

" Sounds like a very rich panda" Saya replied as she looked at the various mountains.
