The branch head nodded,
"Yes, Toto" he said.
"Oh, and is that like a family name?" Hal asked.
"No, it's mine. I never really had a family. I was raised and mentored by the previous branch head" Toto said more than a little confused by Hal's reactions.
'Is it weird that when I hear that name, I immediately think of yellow brick roads, talking scarecrows, a cowardly lion, a girl with pigtails and Ruby slippers?' Hal thought with a hint of jest.
'It is. It very much is' Grimoire said and did not bother hiding that it was mocking him.
'Good to know' Hal told it and returned his attention to Branch head Toto to begin the tale of his kidnapping which contrary to what he had said was not actually that long.
Or at least, what he planned to tell them was not that long.
