There he was - today's client. An enormous serpent feared by many, and known by one name: Jörmungandr.
One thought came across Lia's mind: this guy reeks of fish.
After all, when you've spent the last millennia rotting in the great ocean, terrifying the dark deep, and wreaking chaos upon lonesome sailors, you're bound to be fishier than any fish.
Lia looked at the gaming laptop placed gently upon the dock, with the serpent's car-sized eyes peering into the screen.
"Thine... God of War, how doth you participate?"
"Yeah, no worries, I'll guide you through basic gameplay. The most important thing is setting up your laptop, seeing as it's your first time."
"This book of which you calle a 'laptop'... It has a tayle."
"T-that's a charger, not a tail. It's connected to that outlet there, since these things eat up a lot of power."
The giant serpent's eyes narrowed.
"Power? It consumes power? Of what kind?"
"Uh, around three hundred watts per hour."
"Threigh houndredth of what? Power? How doth you define power?"
Lia sighed. "I know the concept of electricity is confusing, but have you heard of Zeus?"
The sea serpent snarled. "It consumes the power of Zeus himself...! And you are allouwed to wield such a maighty book?"
"It's not a book, more like a... device? Anyway, we need to set up a username. What username do you want?"
"Define 'username'."
"Okay, so you know when you go online, you shouldn't really use your real name, because it could be dangerous..."
"There is none on this... 'line' that you speak of which can harm me - I find no equal, other than my brougther Fenrir, or my faether Loki."
Lia stared at the giant... water thing. "Yeah, okay, I get you, big guy. But 'Jormungandr' is a taken username already."
"Hmmph! This puny booklet that leeches off the power of Zeus, also leeches off my nayme? There is none other than I, Jörmungandr, and my nayme is mine aloune."
"Nothing I can do about it. How about... JormungandrTheGiantSerpent...? It's not taken yet, and describes you well."
"I am not a mere serpent. I am the middle chylde of Loki, ruler of the World Sea, and there art none like me!" he bellowed. The screech stank of blood.
"Okay, sheesh, take a mint! We're gonna use JormunStinkyBreath then."
"What does that mean?"
"It describes you. Now, we're gonna need a date of birth."
"I am not simply born on a date. I am a descendant of the GODS themselves. I am Jörmungandr!"
Lia sighed. This was gonna be a long one.
