"QU-!"

Ahiru threw her hands over her mouth, her eyes darting from side to side nervously. This didn't look like any place she had been to before. But hadn't Drosslemeyer just said that she was in the story? Why was it so different all of a sudden? How did she end up soaking wet? And what had happened to Fakir?

...Yeah, she was officially way too confused. "Um, Fakir?" She looked around the Plaza in confusion, from her current angle only seeing strangers wandering the area and a lot of unfamiliar buildings.

"Wh-Where am I...?"

[heroistic]

[As a member of the welcoming committee, Renton's always on the lookout for newcomers around this time of month—and hey, wet person spotted!

Basket in hand, he approaches her.]

Excuse me...! You just arrived, didn't you?

[whatthequack]

I-I guess? But all I really know about it is that I'm here...

[heroistic]

[A light laugh]

Yeah, you're new. I'm Renton—I help welcome people to this place.

[He holds out the basket.]

So, uh... welcome to Vatheon!

[whatthequack]

[She takes the basket and peers and its contents.]

Thank you very much! My name's Ahiru!

Umm, what is Vatheon? Or... Why...?

[She sighs. There was WAY TOO MUCH to ask right now.]

[heroistic]

[Inside the basket is the Vatheon brochure, among other things.]

Well, this is going to sound crazy, but... the simplest way to put it would be that in you're kind of in a different world.

[whatthequack]

[She'll definitely check it out later, she can't really read and talk at the same time...]

Different? What kind of world is it?

[Though "not a story" was different enough for her.]

[heroistic]

W-What kind of world...? Underwater?
