Satyrs may not be "real" but Satyricon makes our worlds Santacon look like a temperance gathering, these are things Tommary knows.

“Y’know, I used to know a guy with a wooden leg named smith who could read anything ever written in any language. Too bad I couldn’t ever pick that knack up.”
Elyona readily agreed to Toots taking the “gun.” “Sometime when we have nothing better to do, I’d like to examine it more closely, but I think it makes sense for you to be the one to use it.”
Elyona is also amenable to Tommary suggestion about the way forward
"Hmmm, well do we want to mess around with this door, maybe try the brown tab method? Or do we want to see what we can get to if we go back up the corridor?"
