Andrea's eyes immediately go to the man. She barely registers the room, and though she's terrified that she's been transported to somewhere strange - and by herself - she won't show it. She sticks her chin out defiantly.
"Who are you?"

[carriero_npc]

He shuts his book and looks up at her. "My name is Egil. Please have a seat, young lady."

[rea_norton]

[She takes the seat furthest away from him. She's not getting within hitting range of the chap if she can help it]

"What are you reading?" [There's hope - a real book?]

[carriero_npc]

"A collection of Andersen's greatest works." He holds up a book that says exactly that on the cover albeit in Norwegian. "You can borrow it when I'm done, if you so desire."

[rea_norton]

She smiles a little bit, but her guard isn't relaxed. "I'd like that...oh." She flops a little in disappointment. "It's not in English."

She narrows her eyes then. Time to get things back on track. "Why did you ask for us to come. Where are Prussia and Gokudera?"

[carriero_npc]

"They are talking to the other two." His English is flawless, albeit a bit... odd. Like someone who learned the language a few decades ago and never updated his vocabulary. "As in, Maryse and Sergey. We didn't really want anyone to talk to Joe." It's not that Joe isn't successful with what he does. It is more that... well. You do not trust Joe with people that don't know him, at least not alone in a room.

[rea_norton]

"Why? Is Joe a liability? Give too many of your secrets away? You better start talking and fast. Why are you here? How did you get in?"

[carriero_npc]

"Rather the other way around." He shakes his head. "You would not enjoy his company for very long if he got one of his ...moments. Either way, we got in the way you usually get into a place that does not want to let you in. Joe and Sergey had a lot of fun with that, I assure you."

[rea_norton]

"That's not an answer. Answer properly. Tell me HOW."

[carriero_npc]

"Force." He looks at her sharply. "You should mind your tone, young lady."

[rea_norton]

"Being nice gets you nowhere." She scowls. "So what now? Why did you bring me here?" She looks round. "Where is here? And where are Gokudera and Prussia?"

[carriero_npc]

"They talk to Maryse and Sergey.

I take that you have been here for at least a month since you volunteered to come up here. Have you ever interacted with those that ran this place?"

[rea_norton]

"Linda?" She scowls. "Yes. The dumb fairy locked me in a room for ages and ages."

[carriero_npc]

"Did she tell you anything about herself or her group?"

[rea_norton]

"No. She said I was a danger, like everyone else in here. And then when I refused to talk, she locked me in until I HAD to talk."

[carriero_npc]

He frowns at the news and sighs. "Alright then. Let me only ask you three questions. Are you from Earth, and if yes, from what part of it, and what is the current status of your homeland?"
