Transcript
Two top-knotted owl people, Scholar-Pioneers, have emerged from a stony portal. Taller of them is holding a stack of papers in their hands, looking confusedly around them. Smaller one is holding a large roll of paper on their shoulder.
The Scholar-Pioneers start walking to the middle of the room. Taller one looks at the large crowd that is all around them. One guard breaks the silence.
Guard: Top-knots!
The Aviatar looks serious, having heard the bad news previously. Guards and Sharpie the detective are dumbfounded by the elusive Scholar-Pioneers suddenly in front of their eyes. Some guards are excited though.
Guard: Scholar-Pioneers!
Guard: Is that a new invention in their hands!?

Stygian Lord says:
I don’t really have friends in high places.
My friends prefer to lay low.
