You pointed this out - you brought it to the front of the stage.

They were talking like normal people and you pointed out how much bigger they are than Zed

Why? What was your goal?
They are showing Zed the truth knowing it cannot hurt him. At the start of the day Tommie (at least) puts on his robe like anyone else. They are normal people and they do normal people things. Everyone one of them started mortal.

Your damage regarding power and control is showing. Let it go. This is the Inn, God Almighty is no better than anyone else.

Do you think Godzilla showing in your bathroom wouldn't hurt you?

Garry, you have a thing here, too.

I would like you to look at it.

We all know how I feel

Why do we keep finding ourselves here? What's YOUR side of this dance?

Is it something? Something good? Something bad?

We've been dancing this dance for 30 years - and I don't why YOU'RE there for it?

Do you want your characters to feel seen? Do you get off on parading gods in front ants?

Why? What's Garry's thing here?

This is the INN. Everyone is equal. My people are people I want them seen that way. Kirt was there to start with. He asked Tommie to "get Zed's address". Coran has a used ship he wants to unload. Everyone has a reason to be there. They see Zed as an upright guy with doubts about himself.

Kirt is amused by the droid. He has never seen one.

It would do my house damage. Godzilla at the Inn would be shrunk and peaceful.

Kirt gets up taking change if his shield and axe, rigging them over his back. "Well gents, I need to get home. Zed, you and you little tin friend try and have a good life. I might see you again."

He leaves, ducking out the way short door.

As per our discussion, Zed just stares at them, drinking in the experience. "Wow."

Zed: "I'd say 'May the Force be with you', but it would be redundant."

Coran: "We are not the universe Zed to any greater decree than you are. More aware? Yes, it's not a blessing. The ship is the Senator Zantos. I will get her ready."

He would rise and depart. The room gets bigger.

Tommie sit hands steepled on the table. He has a slight smile on his lips. "I am familiar with space travel. I'm a patron of people like you. While I have heard much of your particular variation I have never traveled there. My people rather insist I am present to do my job."

Tommie: "Patriarch, something between king and father councilor. It mainly involves settling disputes."
