Proteus is a subterranean city in the underground caves of Amphibia. It is the place where all the amphibian olms reside.
Overview[]
Proteus is an isolationist city due to the olms' dislike of outsiders and tendency to keep for themselves. The city is targeted by Andrias' Frobots because it was built under a rich iron deposit, which he plans to use to build up his military force.
Background[]
Using the information they gathered on Earth, Anne, Sasha, and the Plantars go looking for the Mother of Olms and find Lysil and Angwin, demanding that they take them to her. Later the team finds out the two olms got banned from Proteus for their arguments when both were patrol guards, who are in denial of the tremors being from Andrias' drilling machine and get kicked out. The team manages to take down the drill, but when Parisia, Guardian of Proteus, refuses to acknowledge this, Sasha snaps back at her.
Impressed with her determination, Parisia allows Lysil and Angwin into the city again, though under constant watch, and gives them access to meet the Mother of Olms.
Trivia[]
- "Proteus" is derived from the genus name for olms, as well as a sea god with that name in Ancient Greek mythology.
