Ryn’too:
Ryn’too is the Template; the very first guardianal. Guardianals, developed to be tireless, unswerving and single minded custodians of all the things the Eight deemed worthy of guarding, required that they have someone to contain within himself all of the curiosity, precociousness and eccentricities that were left out of the rest of his “little” brothers. Since Imani, his creator, was only just getting started when he created him Ryn’too is also the smallest Guardianal in all of Atm&Eden. Today we see Imani checking in on his diminuativer little guardianal atop the volcano that Ryn’too was tasked with guarding (to make sure it smokes and the lava doesn’t get stolen and stuff). It seems the smallest guardianal has some concerns which he’s bringing up with his “Father”. Let’s eavesdrop…
Ryn’too: I’m tellin’ you dad, he does it on purpose. This is the third time this week!
Imani: Come on Ryn’too, I am sure Inao didn’t mean to kick you into your volcano. It’s not like it hurts you, you’re as fireproof and durable as any of your kind. More in fact.
Ryn’too: Three times!!
Imani: I’ll talk to him.
Ryn’too: Seriously, I was a good half hour climbing out of there and my spear was burnt all up. I think someone stole some of my lava too while I was down there. This is completely unacceptable!
Imani: … I’m sure no one has stolen any of your lava. There’s no one here to steal your lava.
Ryn’too: No? What about the monkeys? I’ve been watching some very suspicious monkeys lately.
Imani (gently): Son, monkeys can’t steal your lava. It’s hot, it’d burn their hands. Monkeys can’t carry lava.
Ryn’too: Ah yes I thought that too, but then I saw the coconuts! These are more than ordinary monkeys Dad!
Imani (confused): Coconuts?
Ryn’too: Yes! Coconuts, to use as lava buckets. The fiends!
Imani: *sigh*
