As others dispersed, the Kings bowed to each, Mintaka being the sort to be respectful enough to do so but did not need words to send them off.

It was then a bobcat approached, and while Alnitak had some choice words within Mintaka's mind, the neutral brother pushed its more bully-prone brother aside and smiled down toward the feline. "Hello Felina," Mintaka greeted. "We are the Three Kings of Orion," they introduced themselves, though now they were only one being, so Mintaka gestured with a wing to his side as if someone were standing beside him. "My name is Mintaka, and my brothers are Alnilam and Alnitak. You just missed them, however; we can be three separate beings, or fuse together as one." As he explained this, he did his best to point with their wing to the three stones orbiting each other within their chest.

"My stone is the ice-blue colored stone, Alnilam's is the golden one, and Alnitak's is the red one." He returned the wing to their back, and crouched so they may be lower, resting their head gently on the ground. Their large eye could engulf the tiny bobcat, but with Mintaka at the Kings' helm, nothing so terrible would happen.

"Together, we are just 'the Kings,' and when we fuse, only one of us becomes the lead personality. The gembounds just helped us decide who that would be, and they chose Mintaka, who is mostly a neutral being. Alnilam is quite friendly. Alnitak is... ambitious, maybe unfriendly." "Hey!" "I think it's better to say he will do anything to achieve his goals," Mintaka corrected, leaving that quite vague.
