"Welcome To Althanas, Baron."
The old man's voice still echoed through Baron's head.
"No, this isn't right. Where's the cars, the buses, the cities, the houses?" Baron cried, looking around. All there was were small shops, bars, hotels, and what he prayed were huts.
"Maybe he drugged me. Maybe this is just some terrible dream." the boy sighed, plopping onto his ass cross legged and pulling Envy out of his pocket, examining the naked female carved into the handle. "At least I have something to amuse myself with..." he sighed again. He rummaged through his pockets finding nothing but his cards and a note.
"Hope you find a way to help yourself with these. You'll find my money quite useless here.
San"
"San? Who the hell names their kid San?" Baron mused, crumpling the note and tossing it to the ground. He found the old mans fifty still tucked into the one deck of cards he thought he'd thrown away before he came to this 'Althanas'. "Hm..." Baron thought, pulling out the four aces and two jokers and tucking them into his sleeve, just in case he needed them.
"I need to get out of here and get back home. I wonder if they have space ships here?" Baron realized, and he jumped to his feet, strolling through the town with his hands in his pocket.

Seele walks into the town near the forest. He looks around and sees that the town isn’t all that different from some of the smaller villages he was told about when he was a kid. Random citizens wonder about here and there as he started to walk down the street. He noticed that despite the town being similar to the ones of his world all the people looked strange and alien. He thought about that for a second and realized that it’s actually more the other way around. It’s gonna take some time to get used to this, he thought out loud. It did however surprise him that no one seemed the slightest bit bothered at his appearance. Which means that maybe he isn’t the only one here? This gave Seele some hope. Maybe his fellow Krieger were near by. Having is mind focused else where he didn’t notice the fellow walking his way with his hands in his pocket and odd goggles on his forehead.

The demon watched the alien-looking being walk into the town and stare around in wonder. Obviously, this creature was a new-comer to the land, and although he carried what Ifrit recognized to be a steel katana he realized that the creature was not from any land that Ifrit remembered.
From the rooftop of the inn Ifrit stood and jumped, his red cloak floating behind him like a scarf of blood. As he landed beside the alien being he bent his knees to soften his impact, as his large body was bulky and stocky, and it was a good thing he did for the creature unsheathed it's sword and, faster than the eye could blink, slashed behind it right where Ifrit had been a second ago.
Ifrit dodged and rolled to his feet, extending one palm to the creature to show that he was unarmed and had no ill favor to it. Maybe the thing was a fellow demon, and could tell Ifrit about his father. If not, well, it was nice for Ifrit to know that there were monsters other than he about.

As Amon was walking down the street, he noticed the slightly out of place purple individual.
I have never seen anyone like him before, I must speak with him.
Amon began to slowly approach the purple individual only to see another figure jump from a rooftop and land beside him. The man was nimble and avoided a blow by the man with purple skin.
Very interesting. I have never seen anyone with skin like that, yet this other man seems to not be bothered in the least bit. I must speak with both of them, though I must say they do seem to be rather irratiable, I will have to tread cautiously.
Amon began to close in on the 2 men, greeting them as he did.
"Hail there gents, the name is Amon, might I ask yours?"

As all of this was happening around the alien, a girl was out on the street walking her dog.
She held tightly to the leather strap on his harness, and her cane reached out in front of her to probe the street to make sure she wasn't going to run into anyone or trip over anything. The dog was a great help, but no system was perfect...best to have both cane and dog.
They both stopped, hearing the commotion come from some distance behind them. The dog was a big black lab with chestnut markings, and holding onto his harness was a girl that was pale enough that under extremely dim light she seemed to glow faintly. Silvery gold hair fell down her shoulders in silky curls, restrained by a simple clip, and she was in a pastel green linen dress. She knew it was green only because it was the linen one, and she'd been told it was green. She knew that her hair was a very pale blonde because someone else had commented on how very pale it was indeed. All she knew was the feel of the textures against her skin.
Over her eyes was a soft cloth bandage for the aesthetic comfort of the rest of the city. The girl saw nothing...but she could hear the voices and the footsteps, smell the different scents dying in the light wind...perhaps others thought she was lacking a sense, but with her dog at her side, she felt capable enough.
Not hearing anything of any particular interest to her, she pulled gently on her lab's harness. "Come on, Maurz. Let's go."
As she probed gently forth with her cane again, she gently tapped someone. The dog looked at the man she'd tapped...an odd looking fellow, slumped over and looking completely out of place in the city...who wore shirts with buttons, and that style of pants wasn't what he saw walking the streets every day.
He vocalized something to Sara as she pulled her cane back in and turned to apologize to the person she'd just poked.
"I'm terribly sorry about that, and I hope I didn't hurt you."
