Zvala : Eeeeeeeeeeeeee! I’m so excited – I’m starting my Very Own Blog. On Earth! Soooo glad you dropped by to see me! I know I’m pretty famous and all, but that’s in my universe – Mithya. It’s very very exciting when your fame spreads to a completely different world and mithyakins from that world…What are mithyakins? Oh, like… young ones? Mmmm… I knew that word… children! So, like I was saying, it’s brilliant when earth children also become your fans, don’t you agree?
You will meet all three Taranauts – me, Zarpa, and Tufan – here. Zarpa will write her own stuff – she’s the Responsible One, so I’m sure she will post new stuff every single octoll… oh, there I go again… our octoll is similar to your… week, I think. And Tufan will write his, when he isn’t headbanging to that ear-shattering music he listens to all the time…it’s called blast metal, and it’s awful.

Tufan : All right, all right, time for me to step in here! Mithyakins of earth, blast metal is the coolest music ever – it totally rocks. And guess who are the nayakos of blast metal on Mithya… Nayakos? Means heroes, superheroes. Yeah, so the nayakos of blast metal are the Lustr Blasters, and they’re from my world, Lustr.
You do know there are eight worlds in Mithya, don’t you? Zvala is from Shyn, where they don’t speak Taratongue at all, like sensible mithyakos should. They speak four completely different languages and drive each other nuts. That explains why Zvala’s brains are a little scrambled – so don’t listen to anything she says, particularly about blast metal. Ow! Zvala, stop that!

Zarpa : You guys! You’re impossible! Can you not behave, at least when all these earth mithyakins are listening in?
Hey, earthkins, sorry about that. Let’s start again. Properly.
Hello! We are the Taranauts, and we come from a universe called Mithya. You can find out more about us and Mithya by clicking on the About button at the top of this page.
The ruler of Mithya, Emperaza Shoon Ya, has chosen us for a very very important mission. The 32 stars of our supersun Tara have been captured by an evil, powerful mithyakos called Shaap Azur, and we have to bring them back. It’s going to be very difficult, very challenging, very exhausting, and Very Dangerous, but we are the Taranauts, and we’re going to do it!
We will keep in touch with all of you here, and we hope you will write in and keep in touch as well, and give us your support. We really need it!
Zvala will post stuff like riddles and puzzles and brainteasers for you to try – she acts and sounds like a giddy starlet, but don’t be fooled – she is the brainiac of this team. Tufan is the gizmo freak, so he will show you some very cool mithyamajigs. I am a BIG sports fan, and I will tell you about fun mithsports and games – maybe you can learn to play some!
And of course, we will be introducing you to creatures from Mithya, interviewing interesting mithyakins and earthkins, sharing recipes for our favourite Mithya food, creating contests and quizzes for you all – with exciting prizes! – and letting you know when a new book about our adventures comes out. Yes, it’s going to be a LOT of fun!
Uh-oh, my dingdial tells me we have to run now – we have all these training sessions lined up at Zumskar, and Ms Shuk Tee hates it if we are late.
Tufan : Is it time already? I’ll be there in a few dinglings, guys – will just jump into a quick shower…
Zvala : Grooaaaan. That means he’s going to spray on tons and tons of his stinky deo! Tufan – go easy on that headachy stuff – or I’ll bop you again!
Zarpa : Sigh.
