[shadowqueen]

Everyone's waking up at once, covered in bits of rubble, temporarily without abilities and with a lurking headache. The castle looms around them, irrepressibly gray, huge and silent. The only noises are the people, rustling as they extract themselves from their sarcophagi and look for exits along the arching walkways.

Better take a look around, and see if anyone else knows what's going on.

Apparently not that big. So, what, are we talking rival of Russia or ... what?

[sagacity]

I have no idea what Russia is, either. But the Republic is in control of half the world.

... [ Her expression deflates into something deadpan. This wasn't even a drugs or crazy level of deluded, this was a he's completely serious and even more seriously displaced kind of deluded. ]

Oh boy.

[sagacity]

[ He seems to perk back up at that, straightening and regaining a casual look. This was never about him or his country, after all. ]

What's wrong?

[slay]

Alternate realities. That's what. Either you're from a very non-Earth planet in a galaxy extremely far away, or we're talking dimensional hijinks abound.

[sagacity]

Dimensional hijinks, huh. I don't know about you, but this is pretty different from the last dimensional trip I took. [ A beat. ] So you're not from Fulheim?

[slay]

Serge, I wouldn't even know what a Full-helm was if you hadn't just said so. [ A beat. ] Waiiiit a minute. Did you just say last dimensional trip? As in trans-dimensional?

[sagacity]

Something like that. [ No harm in telling her a thing or two, right? ] It was more full of monsters than anything else. There isn't a lot to say about it.

[slay]

So, not all that different then. Good to know.

[sagacity]

What's that supposed to mean?

[slay]

Oh, not -- Not here. I just meant. You know, back where I come from. Big on the monsters.

[sagacity]

They're just everywhere, aren't they? So, you think this place has got a few to boast?

[slay]

Survey says yes. In the definish sense. Haven't seen one so far, but I know waaaay better than to assume that means they're not lurking.

[sagacity]

You're right about that. For all we know, a sarcophagus could come to life and start eating people.
