Luckily, she gets to have at least one sweet dream. Then, we see what conception looks like for Foundlings, Undersiders, and… well… humans. Though they are living very different lives, they aren’t so different from each other.

As such, we’re joined by special guests lordgreyvii, viceVersailes and Sage – some of the admins and mods of “Occult Magic Online”, the Otherverse roleplaying server!
