00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:37,000
Alright, alright, what is it? We here?
Schildkrote replies

2
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Well, I could have another five minutes then
Schildkrote snorts

3
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Alright, alright!

4
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Here, you awake? If she won't let me sleep, I'm not letting you sleep.

5
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Swamp democracy, see?

6
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Apparently the Amber City shall be coming into view soon.

7
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,000
You're on a grand tour, remember? Don't know why -

8
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Maybe Meraki has plans for ya.

9
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
I'm your guide. Nix Gobbo at your service.

10
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Swamp Goblin and Wild Magic Tinkerer to boot.

11
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
So, what should I be telling ya?

12
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Well, the Amber City is the capital city of the Bao

13
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000
The Bao are a funny bunch.

14
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Ayelfs with beautiful skin as amber as their towers,

15
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,000
but they cover it up in magic and fancy powder paint.

16
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,000
In days gone by they used to live throughout the whole of Ikiga.

17
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
And beyond.

18
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,000
So much learning and riches.

19
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,000
Made them a bit hoity-toity by all accounts.

20
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,000
And tricky neighbours to boot.

21
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Goblin Elder Jon-Boi still remembers the Bao's great retreat.

22
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,000
He's putting down roots now, is Elder Jon-Boi.

23
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,000
But when he was a Gobling, just getting into his trade,

24
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:05,000
he saw that strange and sudden migration of the Bao back across Ikiga to that capital city.

25
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Just upped-sticks and went, they did.

26
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000
Don't know why they did it.

27
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,000
They just shut themselves tight away.

28
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Poof! Gone.

29
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,000
I heard it said that when the Gobbly-Parleyman paid a visit to sound 'em out,

30
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000
they made him take a bath before they'd even let him in!

31
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,000
He stayed for tea and kooka sandwiches and then he had to leave.

32
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,000
None the wiser.

33
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,000
He was only trying to help.

34
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
What's that?

35
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Yeah, look there.

36
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
The towers of the Amber City are coming into view.

37
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Those amber towers, they're taller than you think.

38
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,000
It was the Bao's ancestors built them.

39
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,000
They had minds for magic and engineering, let me tell you.

40
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,000
But those towers are looking a bit rickety now, wouldn't you say?

41
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Very odd malarkey if you ask me.

42
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Hang about! Schildkrote! Evasive action!

43
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:08,000
There are Bao soldiers down there and they're cranking round their trebuchets.

44
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000
Look at them!

45
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Oh, wait a minute.

46
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:17,000
That's ceremonial armour they're wearing, not field armour.

47
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,000
See how heavy it is?

48
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,000
They can hardly walk straight.

49
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,000
They must be in the middle of some ceremony.

50
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Phew!

51
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,000
For a minute there, I thought they were going to shoot us.
