[When the Heroes step through the portal, they find themselves in a welcoming setting. Unlike the calm of Order's Sanctuary, the sprawling, dense junglesand forests of Ales' home are vivid and filled with gentle sounds. Small yellow orbs of light float above the branches, radiating magic. The denizens of the glade are a variety of fantastic creatures, ranging from faeries to frog-like men to...anything weird you can come up with. There are Teensies just like Ales, though they wear pastels and have spiral markings on their noses instead of stripes like his.
The Heroes wake up in the middle of the forest, but in the distance, they will see a large glowing orb among the foliage. This is the Heart of the World, and the Teensie race are the guardians of this source of life energy. They're a party-loving people, and would love to waste time with the Heroes. If they learn of their heroic deeds, the Heroes might get a chance to meet with the Teensie king, the Grand Minimus. Or rather, kings. The crown is passed among the four of them during the day since that's the best compromise they could come up with.
Most residents the Heroes will come are resting in their homes and wave at the newcomers with smiles. Life is good here, and there is no need for them to worry for their safety. Perhaps they want to sit a while and eat some brightly colored fruit? Explore the intertwining branches that they use as walkways?
Ales, however, will not waste any time. No matter how much he detests his lazy neighbors, they are not going to be friendly with him. The instant he realizes where they are, he ducks into the bushes and crawls away from any settlement. He was planning on returning to the Glade, but he has no killer robots to conquer it with. Terrible timing.
That's not all. A flying ship has shown up on the horizon, captained by the feared robot pirate Razorbeard and his crew. The Heroes can ignore the threat and let the locals deal with the problem, or they can board the ship, beat the pirates through fighting or trickery, and jump through the portal that appeared by their ship...]
