As golden streams of light began to twist inside him, an ancient voice suddenly rang out in the Slime Boundary,
"Baline Baline Baline Baline!"
The strange whistle carried far and wide, and from the stone path behind the square, several huge, multicolored Slime creatures emerged, still bleary-eyed. Then, the space within the caves began to distort, and groups of pale golden figures continuously traversed through midair from all corners of the world.
As the ethereal whistle kept echoing into the distance, the square, originally occupied by just the three of them, became increasingly bustling. Figures emerged onto the spacious square dressed in skins, human guises, or the forms of other demi-humans—wearing pajamas, duty uniforms, heavy robes, pirate attire, officer uniforms, priestly garments.
