Gregor hefted his lance and shield.

: "Let's get this done. Jorinn and I should probably go first; we've got the armor for it if we run into an ambush."

Gregor stepped though the portal, feeling the same disorientation as everyone else and equally affected...except that in the chaos of up and down changing directions his monocle slipped off.

: "Whoa!"

Luckily it remained securely on its chain and the young man was able to restore it to its proper place. While initially embarrassed, Gregor was caught up in the knowledge that he had just stepped into a new world. Or maybe it wasn't new?

: "A sorceress who summons servants...I don't know why, but that sounds familiar. Anyway, according to Friedhelm she's either dead or been captured, so this place probably hasn't seen living people in some time."

: "I'm ready for just about anything!"

1010
: "You are quite welcome, and it was no trouble at all. Just let me know if anything is not satisfactory, ma'am." With another bow, 42-1 took his leave and returned to the kitchen to clean up...only to find it spotless.

: "Huh." He could have sworn that he had only been gone for a few minutes. The sheer speed of the cleaning bespoke a great passion for the art of making things spotless...or a great and terrible rage towards dirt and grime and possibly those who had created it.

Well, it was one less assignment on his shoulders. 42-1 used the stove to brew up a fresh batch of tea and went back outside so he'd be available for more conversations if wanted in case anyone wanted refreshment.

1011
Trouble? What trouble could she mean?

: "Bon appétit. Can I get you anything else?"

1012
Remembering that his master enjoyed condiments with his fish and chips, 42-1 found some small bowls and filled one each with tartar sauce and malt vinegar. Placing them all on a serving tray along with napkins and silverware (well, woodware; the tavern apparently didn't bother with metal utensils, probably in case they got stolen), the homunculus carried the tray in one hand in the approved butler fashion, intent on returning outside.

1013
: "I am not unacquainted with the preparation of food, ma'am."

42-1 might not have known how to make sushi (it was apparently a Revivian dish, and his old master had disdained anything Revivian), but he could manage well enough with these familiar ingredients. Deciding to stick with the impromptu fishy theme, he got to work. Fillet and debone the fish, cut the potatoes into wedges, prep a batter using some of the beer. Using the small amount of oil Yliss insisted on, he pan-fried the battered fish and wedges. Not exactly a deep-fry, but needs must.

Once the fish and chips were on a plate, the homunculus garnished them with some herbs and the seaweed. Add a couple of lemon wedge and presto! A meal fit for a master.

1014
: "Thank you, sir. We will not be long."

42-1 moves into the kitchen and looks around. What is available?

1015
: "Miss Serena, this is Miss Milly, a merchant who has agreed to join us with her wagon. Miss Milly, Miss Serena. Please excuse us."

The homunculus led the way into the tavern and sought out the operator.

: "My sincere apologies but we need to use your kitchen. It's an emergency."

1016
Under his calm face, 42-1 was panicking. He had failed! He got distracted by talking and forgotten to perform his duties! Oh, if his old master hadn't exploded and could see this. He didn't deserve a new master!

He bowed extra-low anyway, figuring that if he was going to have any second chance at all he'd have to go for broke.

: "Miss Milly, my most sincere apologies. I will prepare some food for you straight away. That said, I do not know how to make sushi, so someone else will have to assist if such is desired. Miss Yliss, perhaps?"

Is that the episode where the alien is pretty clearly a guy hiding under a rug? My knowledge of the original Trek is pretty limited.

1018
42-1 looked between Serena and Yliss, then turned to Milly.

: "What is sushi?"

Let me know when they have smelly cheese golem.

: "No offense taken, ma'am. As you say, there are many things I am unaware of."
