*Jacob had no idea what to think when he woke up in a strange room, but the first thing on his mind wasn't to check the book on his nightstand. He barely even noticed it as he wandered out the door. The place looked like a castle, and that was doing a good job of confusing and exciting him. So far he didn't seem to be in any danger, so there

[And Zeke is just derping around like his derpy old self when he remembers the orchard. Because the orchard has apples, and apples means apple pie. And apple sauce. And baked apples. And apple crisp.

So, basically, delicious things.

But as he enters the orchard, he sees some random dude with giant black wings, and now he's distracted.]

Nice wings y'got there.

[icnfly]

Hm?

*By now, Jacob has finally decided to try EATING one of the apples. He's seated by his little pile, and looks up to Zeke without removing the apple from his mouth at first. He grins and removes it.*

Heh, thanks, I'm quite fond if them myself. Is this place yours?

[thenotmagician]

Nah, I'm just a guest, which I'm assumin' you are, too. I'm Zeke. Ezekiel Lerish.

[icnfly]

A guest, yeah, I guess that'd be one way to put it. Not really sure how I got to be one, though, and not planning on staying around long.

I'm Jacob. Nice to meet you.

[thenotmagician]

Welp, none of us really gotta choice. The Lord of this place dragged us here from our homeworlds t'save us or somethin', and we're kinda stuck here.

[icnfly]

...homeworlds?

*He has a lot to say about that, but that one word has sort of derailed him for a bit.*

[thenotmagician]

Yeup! We're who-knows-where in some other universe.

[Welcome to the world where shit no longer makes sense!]

[icnfly]

*Jacob puts his apple down and stares at Zeke carefully. This guy is probably just crazy, but is he dangerous crazy or not?*

...Right. And how did we get here?

[thenotmagician]

No idea.

[icnfly]

*...*

What makes you think this is another universe, anyway?

[thenotmagician]

Welp, for one thing, there isn't anythin' like this where I'm from. And for another thing, I was somewhere else that was a different world before I was brought here.

[icnfly]

Its just a castle, man, they're all over. Well not so much in America, but there are some around. Its probably some guy who really wants to recreate the old days or some weird theme park. That doesn't mean its another world.

[thenotmagician]

[He has no idea what Jacob is talking about but hey, the denial monster sure is rearing its head.]

It's possible, but I doubt it.

[icnfly]

*Its not so much denial as not having been informed of the change. If Ezra told him he didn't believe him anyway.*

So you're guess is that we're in an alternate universe. That's...not really the first conclusion most people would come to.

[thenotmagician]

I've had previous experience. And your note explains it for th'most part. And I'm guessin' you didn't read it.

[icnfly]

*He shakes his head.*

No, nobody gave me a note.
