h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*walks around the trees but sees nothing*
Where?

WATCH WHERE YOU STEP!!!!!! Careful, now, look down. See that - there. That's a village called Habgin-bok, a small village of 500 or so Sundertanians. Shall we stop in for something to eat?

*speechless*

*puzzled by her silence*
So is that a yes or what? They make the most wonderful senses......

*shakes her head to get her ability of speech back*

Yes! Definitely yes - I've always wanted to visit a tiny little village...

I'll just make a slight adjustment on the teleporter and......here we go!

*the world goes blurry and then sharp again, but instead of an empty space behing some trees they find themselves in a little town full of people hurrying to greet the visitors*

Hrafgondul! Vermantil e somuni espectil a franden-burkjul, led e "Alien", a gondulfondu lempectil si "Anglusi".
*To Alien*
I've asked them all to speak English, just to make things easier. I'll introduce you to some of them - The one with the flowing Purple beard is the chieftain of the town, you may call her Singali. To her right is her good friend Limpiltoli, who is the chief sense maker of the village. We are going now to a small, very good restaurant called 'Defingalitil', which roughly translates to 'Makers of fine Senses'. Feel free to speak to anyone; we are honoured guests in their village.

*follows Cthulhu and the sundertanians to the restaurant, looking around the village with curiosity trying to spot everything that's happening*

*Notices Aliens look of wonder and smiles, recollecting the first time he encountered Sundertanians*
Didn't I tell you how wonderful it all was?

No you didn't... But it's never too late...

The thing about Sundertand is that it's only just a little bit (other than in size ) different from our ordinary world, but it's just that little bit of difference that makes Sundertand such a wonderful place. It's not one of those smarmy 'fantasy' lands where there is never any pain - for how can you know pleasure without knowing pain? - but there is a serenity about the way that things happen here that suggests that another name for it could well be serendipity

*daydreaming*

I love Sundertand already...

And just think...this is only one small village....

Is there a capital somewhere?

Not really as such, but there is one town that is the largest, which is called Flamdrin-tog.

I see... Is this the restaurant?

I believe so....I think we'll just eat out on the footpath cafe section.....soak up some more of the atmosphere....Singali? Thank you for the welcome.

Yeah, thank you so much!

*Pulls a seat out for her to sit on*
Here. Limpiltoli will be back shortly to take our order personally.
