Outside 18 Apocalypse Avenue, Sunday Evening

[doubleohblonde]

Back from his explorations of the island, Asriel was sitting outside the house he was supposedly renting rooms at, and writing down notes about this place and the people on it. Hopefully he'd not only be able to figure out how he got here, but how to manage to travel between worlds of his own volition. Occasionally his hand would drift down to stroke Stelmaria's head.

[For one person in particular, but open!]

After leaving the boy on the beach and his fire, Serafina had set out to find Asriel, now that she knew he was here.

It didn't take her long, and soon she and Kaisa were both descending before him.

At a soft rumbling from Stelmaria, Asriel looked up, quickly getting to his feet when he saw the witch.

"Greetings," he called out, momentarily cursing his lack to a weapon to place by his feet to show he meant no harm.

Serafina set down her own bough, bow and quiver by her feet as she landed. "Evening. Lord Asriel?"

[doubleohblonde]

"Yes," Asriel nodded. "And who might you be?"

"Serafina Pekkala," she replied with something akin to a smile.

[doubleohblonde]

Asriel bowed slightly. "It's an absolute pleasure to meet you."

Serafina inclined her head. "And you. Do you know where we are?"

[doubleohblonde]

"An island called Fandom," Asriel replied. "This country is where New Denmark would be in our world." That last was said with no small amount of pleasure.

Serafina didn't shock easily, so she just nodded. "And how did we get here?"

[doubleohblonde]

"That...I'm not so sure of," Asriel admitted. "But the important thing is that there is no Magisterium here, no Authority."

"The people don't have daemons," she said, with some concern.

[doubleohblonde]

"I noticed that too," Asriel nodded. "Although the woman who owns this house here seems to believe they have something like invisible ones."

Stelmaria, meanwhile, was delicately sniffing at Kaisa.

"The boy I met suggested that they're reincarnated as animals and it's a similar concept," Serafina replied dryly, as Kaisa quietly observed Stelmaria.

"I suppose it's to be expected that different worlds are, well, different," Asriel remarked.

[notqueenyet.livejournal.com]

"Of all things."

[doubleohblonde]

"Which just makes finding out how exactly to traverse the worlds even more important."
