Icon of Lem:
Prepare for Today’s extract from the Book of Lem is taken from Sector 314, Latitude 4.2, Node 6. “And so it did come to pass that Lemuel, son of Lemuel, did become the very first giant to lay down his world-sized tools and close his brobdingnagian eyelids, and slip from the greyness of the real world, and start to roam mindfullingly through the world the giants created had...”
“...And roam he did until he knew every corner better than anyone imagining, imagined or imaginable - giant, critter, bureaucrat, spirit or world-liver. And thus did Lem become the Giant of knowledge, of directions, and of advice.”
Thus endeth the extract. Time to leave. Beep. Beep. Beeeep. -

Icon of Zille
2... 2...1. The Committee for the Illumination of the Populace presents Giant Fact no. 4: Zille, giant overseer of all mountains, grew up in a travelling circus, eons before the time of the Great Imagining, and is to this day as well known for her ability to juggle continents as she was for being two-faced.
Even though having a face on either side of one’s head is not usual, even for giants.

Icon of Spriggan
All rise. ALL RISE, for the daily recitation of the Pledge to Spriggan.
We, earnest tree-huggers and loyal supplicants to Spriggan, pledge allegiance to the All-Powerful Giant of Trees.
We swear to pet, not poison, water, not weedkill, and never to go against the grain, when we know the grain is good.
We will cherish our wood, and love our logs, and never take a hatchet to a dying friend, for every tree is our friend.
... nd above all, deny our loyalty to any giant but Spriggan.
In this, the age of Spriggan.
Now and ever more. This is our special pledge. Our lives are made shiny by it. We wooden’ lie.

Icon of Mab
Hello?
Hello? I’m sorry, the line is very bad. Is this thing on? This is Mab’s direct message line. Anything you say may be recorded. I’m not sure we’ve set this thing up correctly. What’s this button? Is it plugged in? What’s a plug? Does it have one?
... have a message, please leave it after the beep. If you have, however, found the very important artifact that Mab has been seeking for so long, known as Mab “Guffin”, please read the secret word printed on the underside of the object for a direct line to wake Mab and speak directly to her.

Click... click... transmission begins. Press button to continue.
...Fzzzzzz ... transmission. Giant facts, no.1623: Humbaba, giant overseer of all that walks or crawls or hops upon the land, is as capable as any giant of walking on two legs. Out of respect for her charges, she walks on four.

...And occasionally she hops.

Your request has been accepted, and will be passed along to Alph.
Please note, due to overwhelming volume of devotion, there may be some delay in fulfilling your request.

And as soon as Alph has imagined the correct combination, his loyal followers will be the first to... Thank you for ... *click*. -
Got a different one from the icon of Humbaba, after getting the one noted above first.
Click. Clickclick... Transmission beeeeeeeee...
... smission begins. Giant fact no.815: Before the time of the great imagining, Humbaba had dominion over only one animal: the great grey grunting, waddling fartybeast of her home swamp.
It is for this reason that, in the time of the great imagining, Humbaba carefully mind-crafted every animal to be special and different and unique. Both the species already hatched, and the species waiting in the future-worlds, waiting to hatch.

Icon of Friendly
Par-parrrrrrrp. Silence and alertity, Little Child of Friendly, for your daily proverb from the Epic of Friendly.
“Proverb 4,8: 15 - When two friends meet together, at night, in the shadow of the rook, the one bearing the greatest booze-concoction shall triumph...”
“...The other will be called “He who smells of very stinky cheese” by all who meet him.”
“Also: never trust Zillots.”
Friendly has spoken.
End of proverb. Parrr-parrrrrrrp. -
Icon of Zille, the second time she spoke:
...Click. Transmission...
...Begins. The Committee for the Illumination of the Populace presents Giant Fact no. 42: Zille was the last giant to close her eyes to the universes the giants used to inhabit, and give herself over to the world of the Great Imagining.
This is why, it has been suggested, Zille is the most level-headed of the giants, but the hardest to please. The rumour that she has a heart of stone, however, is not true.
It is made of giant-flesh. And space-matter. And gravel.
