Who: Annie Leonhardt stohess and........ YOU.
What: A newcomer explores the castle. What is going on? What is happen? What is this place evena all about? Why are there no walls? you know. Big ones.
When: The morning of September 6.
Where: Cair Paradisa.
Rating: ???

So this was a new world.

As impossible as it was, it was a relief. From what she initially discovered about Paradisa, it knew nothing of the taint of the titans... and humans, although still small in number, were thriving and free. It was leagues better than back home, where certain repercussions awaited her. Not that she was one to stray from reaping what she sowed, she couldn't help but refuse to accept punishment for something in which she couldn't remember her reasoning.

It was annoying, to say the least. But really, what did it matter? She was stuck here now, and here she would stay.

And so, she'd explore. She would get a feel for this so-called kingless castle, something completely separate from the fucked up political and miltaristic system she had seemingly left behind.

Not that this place was much less a prison...

"I get what you mean. Living off rations all my life, you'd think I'd totally take advantage of this place and order whatever kind of food I want..." Oh sure, she's ordered things she's never tried before, and Joel and Tess have both introduced her to a few great pre-apocalypse foods... but even so. "But now... I dunno. Having whatever I want be just a wish away seems a lot stranger than all this magic shit."

"It's all strange to me. Everything about this place is impossible." She keeps her head down and her back against the wall, empathizing with the other... but of course, her expression would hide such a thing.

"So much for thinking that wishes mean nothing."

"Tell me about it. I thought the same thing, when I first woke up here..." Easy access to food, hot running water, clean clothes and beds... it was like an impossible dream.

"It's even weirder when you run into people who have no idea what kind of shit your world has gone through. Stuff you've been dealing with all your life... suddenly, most people have no clue what the hell you're talking about."

Annie nodded, maybe even allowed the corner of her lip to curl in the very slightest. "I don't think many people would enjoy the world I'm from," She bit her lip, wondering whether or not she should extrapolate before the person before her asked. "No one does to begin with."

"... What was it like?"

The way this girl talked, the brief mentions of her own home, her body language... it had all piqued Ellie's curiosity, and she can't help but try to prod when things start to take that turn.

"My world was total shit too. I bet I could understand."
