Yes and then some

After taking some time to close his blinds and double checked that his front door was locked, Angelo pulled out his Hearthstone from his inventory. Upon pulling it out of his inventory, he could see one of the Dwarven runes was emanating a pale blue light, this was the one he had set previously to the oasis in front of Slyka's village. He smiled, thinking of Slyka's lovely face, and well, the time he had spent with her previously. It had only been a day for him, but for her, it had almost been a week. It was after all a 6 to 1 ratio to his own. His thumb ran gently over the rune, a new green light began to fill its carving, starting from its center, spreading out further the longer he held his thumb there. After the light filled the entire rune, the world around him became distorted, warping around him before vanishing in the blink of an eye. A moment later, the world around him began to normalize, filling in his view with what looked like a desert, but once it fully came into focus, he found he had been transported back in front of the oasis, near Slyka's village, a notification popped up.

You have successfully used your Hearthstone to teleport back to your waypoint at Slyka's Village.

Note: This area has been renamed, Master Angelo's Haven by Slyka Silverlock.

His cheeks reddened while reading that, taking a moment before shaking his head. 'Slyka, you are giving me too much praise.', he thought while looking at the oasis. He smiled, taking comfort in the fact that it looked exactly as he remembered. He opened his inventory, taking a second to put his Hearthstone inside before closing it.

He would soon find out that this, was the only thing that looked the same. When he turned around, his eyes were met by several, three story tall observation towers, a horn began to bellow from two of them at once. Two rather large stones rolled forward. They stopped at the edge of the town, allowing for a smaller stone to come flying up from the top. He could barely make out the two eye sockets that were looking his direction. 'Hmm, it was obvious to him these were earth elementals, but what were they doing in front of Slyka's town?', he began to wondered. He decided to use Observe on the elementals.

He smiled. 'It looks like Slyka is doing well for herself.', he thought, but right as he completed this thought, those elemental's bodies began to shake slightly. He could start to make out cracks being made along their hard round stone bodies. No, wait, not cracks, but crevices. These elementals were uncompressing themselves. It wasn't long before the extra rock was released and reconfigured, their bodies stood slightly taller now, roughly 8'. Except for the head's of these golems he wouldn't have recognized them as the same creature, they reminded him of... No, he couldn't believe it, their bodies looked just like his. The only part they lacked was a dick and balls, but it was his body otherwise. He decided to use Observe yet again on them.

He looked slightly to the side while thinking, 'They even lost some weight during their transformation.'. Another loud bellowing of horns were heard as several wolf riders came rushing out. Upon closer observation, he could see their weapons weren't drawn. 'Perhaps this was a welcoming party?', he thought as they came to a stop several feet from him. The more well decorated goblin smiled and said. "Master Angelo, correct? We have been expecting you. Our Chieftain has been anxiously awaiting your arrival." He nodded slightly and said. "Has she now? Well, my apologies for making her wait." The male goblin chuckled before nodding while saying. "I heard you were humble, Master Angelo. Please, follow me." He said, snapping his fingers while turning around, his wolf riders taking point around Angelo as a proper protective escort would before they began heading back to the town. He could see the buildings had improved considerably, it looked closer to what he would expect of a human city in a lot of ways in the 1800's, though set up to house only a hundred people or so. While walking closer to the town, he noticed the rather high wall that had been erected along the outside of the town, this was likely to protect it from invaders and the very possible threat of sandstorms. He was quite impressed with how much Slyka had improved the town in such a short period of time.
