[Elena had listened to the explanation provided by the maid and even watched the...well, informative seemed kind, but she watched the video provided on the bracelet in her room once she was left alone. She doesn't know the girl she's sharing a bathroom with and doesn't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.]

[Either way, there's only so much pacing in her room that she can do.]

[At first when she sets out, she's a little more directed about where she's trying to go even though she really has no idea. But as she wanders outside of Freya's district and into the others, she's more and more aimless. This place seems endless.]

[It occurs to her to head back to her room, but she has too much on her mind right now - not just about this place, but about home, too - and so she keeps walking. She might get lost, but it might not hurt to get lost for a little while anyway.]

[He frowned, not exactly portraying the most open of faces. Then again, that was normal for Gendry. He was thinking, and when he did that, his face contorted. He gave a kick at the ground, before letting his eyes shift suspiciously around.

When he had first arrived, that little gem in that fancy little wristband hadn't any colour. Yet now it seemed like he was meant to stay. Thor, he had been told, a house based on strength.

For some God.

It wasn't as if Gendry had any desire to be of help. What bothered him most was the fact that people simply couldn't leave him be. One thing or another. He had been on his way to Lady Stoneheart with that female knight.

And then he had been here.

Was it that much to ask to just leave him alone to work at his forge? He'd had enough of lords, enough of war, and enough of Gods. But here he was, apparently stuck in the middle of it again.]

[ In the end, Laurent gets ushered out of the castle with more questions than he originally started with. He's somewhat far from the calm state he's usually in, eyebrows knit together with worry lines appearing along his forehead. At the moment, it sounds as though there's no way to get back; he has enough faith in his comrades to know (or at least, hope) they'll be able to defeat Grima. But...

He frowns deeply, stopping just at the side of the street to re-read the letter. Another world that requires saving - but he has no emotional attachments to this one. He could also really care less about a god who hardly acted like one.

The letter slips into a pocket in his robe, to be studied along with the bracelet when he finds his room. That is, if he can find the Welcome Hall, which he can't get to unless he knows where he is.

So he definitely has more questions than before, without a proper source of answer (he had ran the poor maid dry with all the questions he asked - fire magic, really?). The frown's still etched on his face, alternating between glancing up at the streets, then back down at the map. Though if you ask him, he's not lost, thank-you-very-much.

... Okay, maybe he is. ]

[The bracelet he'd been given upon arrival had changed. It took Inigo a while to notice, and a while longer to figure out what that meant, but - he was staying here? Probably?

He wasn't sure whether he liked that idea or not. It was kind of like a vacation, and there were a lot of pretty girls there, but at the same time he wanted to know how things would be at home. Would they succeed? Would the future be changed?

It seemed that he wasn't allowed to know that yet. It hung over him, but true to his nature, Inigo shook it off and managed a carefree smile. He needed to find where he'd be staying!

With a wink at the nearest pretty girl, Inigo strode through the streets, searching for his new temporary home.]

[River's arrival is nothing but confusion. It felt like something she couldn't possibly imagine to be real. Gods and monsters are the things of fairy tales, right?

But her mind is quiet and as she walks through the city, she finds herself accepting it with each step.

She peers around streets and corners, studies the city and learns the feeling of it under her feet. She's not sure what to make of anything but she tries to see it as an adventure, as something to be explored and learned about. It's not frightening, although she feels that she already misses her crew, even though she's only been away from them for a few hours.

And every time she thinks she's done marveling at what's happened, she feels the emptiness in her head, feels the thoughts that are not running

[Most people would probably look very confused right about now, having been suddenly transported somewhere. But this one's reaction is rather... lacking. Her expression is eerily blank, and all she does is look around. She's pretty intimidating to look at, too, so that doesn't help any.

She stands outside the Hel house for a good while to get her bearings, but then she starts walking.]

((OOC: just so you know, she'll try to attack anyone who approaches her if they are humanoid! But she'll stop once she realizes she's lost her canon abilities, so don't worry, no harm done. c: ))

[... Oh dear. The gem on the bracelet that Ninian had been given upon her arrival had suddenly changed, and few later she was told to search for House Sigyn or for people coming from there. The idea that her enchanted rings wouldn't work in Asgard made her nervous at first, but learning that in exchange she'd be able to heal those who needed it put her slightly at peace... At least she would be able to help those who need her aid in this particular world.

But what about her world? The one she had returned to with Nils, and that now she and Lord Eliwood's group were trying to save from a potential war? Lord Athos had given them some time to gather their strengths and discuss their plans in Pherae, but she had been taken in here right before these extra hours started. Would everyone be all right? What about Nils, Lady Lyndis, Lord Hector Lord Eliwood himself...?

And so she strides around the Asgard streets, trying not to bump on anyone in her way to the place where she's supposed to go. Anyone is free to speak to her, however!]

[Sharon's been here a few days now, since the accident that led to her becoming a more permanent resident. The maids had helped her find her room, and she'd finally figured out a bit more about what was going on. Not much, but enough to not be freaking out. The first day or two she spends in her room, trying to unwind and reviewing the data she had over and over like any good Cylon.

But that gets old, and she's getting restless. So. Out the door she goes! People in and around Freya's areas will definitely catch a glimpse of a young woman in a military uniform and an expression of curiosity on her face. Sharon wants to know where she's living and what she's in store for. She's got a friendly smile for anyone who approaches too!

After a day or two she starts to wander the city at large, straying further and further from Freya's district. She might even get a little turned around and could probably use some help.]

[Tony Stark had half-expected to be whisked back away to the "real world" after the booths had been packed away and the others had vanished into thin air, presumably back to where they came from. And yet, day after day, he woke in the room that had been assigned to him in Baldr's welcome hall and spent his day wandering the town or attempting to repair his suit in the forge he shared with Leo, though it was getting clearer and clearer that was futile.

Today finds Tony in the forge, stripped down to a tanktop and jeans, arc reactor glowing through the thin material as he pounds away at a strip of glowing metal. He's not even sure what he's making now, just needing something to do with his hands to distract him from remembering that not only was his suit in disrepair, but Pepper had disappeared with the rest of the visitors as well. A small boombox blares AC/DC, the mp3 one of the few things salvageable from the suit's memory without JARVIS.]

[With the festival over, Rose has collected herself to inspect her surrounds. Some might claim she's positively become a recluse. She thinks otherwise, she's regrouping, planning, plotting, she may have eaten an amount of festival food to keep up her endurance for a hostile new environment but for the most part she's remained an impartial observer to the horrifying goings on.

She has yet to find any actual hostility from it but lives in hope.

Right now, she's sitting on a bench, taking in the surrounds and attempting to project innocence and an endearing, naive aura. While she's come to terms with her lack of skill in the area it's never failed to gather attention to her in the past. Mostly because this is the first time she's tried it.]
