Plethora Unraveled

Chapter 141: Completly At A Loss

Adrienne

Plates are filled with food.

The glasses are still full.

Yet, no one besides Johan and Lovely are eating.

Clearly, we're all flabbergasted.

How can there be other species here? If I didn't see it, I wouldn't believe it

Johan leaves his table and walks up to the podium.

"There's plenty of delicious food here, let's not let it go to waste," he says.

"How do you expect us to eat after seeing that thing?" Ethan yells.

"Right, what is he?" Aiden asks, earning a look from Dylan.

"Why didn't we know about this?" Idora asks.

Johan holds up his hand to stop any other questions from coming his way. He activates armstation.

"It doesn't look like anyone can stomach food so I'll begin. The information that I'm going to share was, is on a need-to-know basis. This information was only shared with those in leadership but since our High Queen has been crowed everyone here is on a need-to-know basis."

He activates a large screen behind them.

"Our Universe," he says and shows an image of the Universe Velebaidluin.

"As you are aware it is filled with many stars or planets but the brightest of the brightest stars are living planets- Salahix, Plethora, Apic, Cordexia, and Eayvein; S.P.A.C.E. as we call them," he says, "Each of them have their independent sun, suns, moon, or moons–"

"What do you mean by living planets?" Ethan asks cutting him off.

"I meant what I have spoken. Life exists on all of the planets," he says.

Gasps, conversations, and questions erupt in the gardens. Johan holds up his hand to silence everyone.

"I know you all may have many questions. Let me explain, I may answer some of them."

He swipes the air with his fingers toward the screen and an up-close image of a planet projects.

"This is Salahix, the largest of all the planets. The Salahixians are immortal beings that are superior in flight. They primarily live in the sky. Unlike us, they all share the same powers- they're strong, able to read someone by looking at them and seduce or destroy with their wings. If you ever encounter one of them, do not touch their wings- they will use them to immobilize you. Their wings can regrow but if they are cut off from the root the Salahixian turns mortal and wither away. Our visitor, Prince Brynn is of Salahix. Try not to worry about him for now, he will be reported to his parents," Johan says.

"Wait," Drew says as he stands up, "You mean to tell us that freaky airfowl man is from another planet? How did he get here?" he asks.

That is a valid question.

"He flew," Drew says, "They can fly at light speeds."

Preston and Liam stand up. Johan holds up his hand again.

"I know you have questions but let me continue," he says and they sit.

Ever sits at the table and stares at Johan as if she is confused and trying to take it in as best as she can.

Lydia, who has now joined them at the main table, is surprisingly quiet.

Johan swipes his fingers again showing us a new planet.

"This is Apic, known as the water planet. Its inhabitants, the Apicians can live in and out of the water, though they prefer to live in the waters. Their kingdom is built underwater. Like us, their powers vary and change as they move from water to land. Unfortunately, they are limited to two powers," he says.
