The bronze drone, following Drip's command, sloshes over to the door, a handful of toads trundling after it. It slips its fluid hands between the double doors and pulls them wide open, stepping out into the room beyond and doing its best wall impression. Everyone peeks around it, looking for the source of the noise. Immediately, the source is upon them, fast marching straight up to the drone. It resembles a flamingo, though its size is more akin to a particularly large ostrich. It appears to be made of colored glass, its giant wings and cape-like tail made of a collection of different colored diamond sections like mobile stained glass windows. Atop its puffed chest is a poofy feathered collar, and sprouting from that are four distinct heads on long noodle necks. Each one is a different color: red, yellow, pink, and green. Each has a different kind of head as well, the red is a flamingo, the yellow a toucan, the pink a dodo, and the green a pelican.
The strange hydra bird stamps its feet and shoves its medal and ribbon bedecked chest against the drone.
"WHO ARE YOU? BY WHAT RIGHT ARE YOU ON MY DECK?!""What is your business here?"Returned to the scene of the crime have you? Engarde!Around here...somewhere...The colors of its right wing shift, all the glass of it becoming pink, and it draws a saber from a belt around its puffy belly. The saber is shaped like a feather, but looks quite sharp regardless. The left wing turns green and holds the right wing back.
Past the hydra bird is a long hall, curving slightly towards the left as it progresses. It too is made of iron and cactus wood, but with a large open window running down its length and letting in sunlight. Along it are running smaller beings: cacti and succulents in human form, each wearing what looks like a bright white naval uniform, often with thorns poking through. Most are carrying what look like old flintlock rifles, others are carrying glass orbs filled with miniature storm clouds. Many are sticking their "heads" out of the window, rifles scanning around rapidly.
Wait for Drip's drone to do it's thing. Attempt to communicate with the little frogs. Are they extensions of Big Frog?
I have a feeling we're going to end up with a very sad frogtress before this is over.

Genesis looks at the toads. They seem like ordinary toads, other than their metallic nature. They aren't afraid or bothered by the people but they don't seem particularly cognizant or motivated either. Still...the way they seem to be following along doesn't seem like the actions of a normal animal.
