[Charles is wheeling around the dorm floor to get back to his dorm and sees the young woman. He finds her appearance quite strange, yet beautiful. Exotic might be the better word. She was an elf. After some of the people and beings he'd met here the shock wasn't as great, but it was still amazing to realize it either way.

She looked disoriented, confused. She must be new.]

Is there anything I can help you with? You look lost.

[direbunnies]

[She's a bit startled when she hears his voice, but-- at least whoever it is seems helpful!]

Oh-- well... I suppose I am a bit lost. I woke up not too long ago.

[groovy_mutation]

[He'll try his best to be helpful. Don't mind his wheelchair, it won't eat you, promise.]

Then I can assume you read the note? [It never hurts to make sure.]

There are many of us here, varied in race and worlds. Or that's what I've gathered so far. I've not been here long myself.

[He'll offer his hand to her.]

Charles Xavier, and I'm sorry to meet like this, but it is nice to meet you regardless.

[direbunnies]

[She nods, and-- shakes his hand? That's what humans do, right? Oooh, you'd think she'd be sure about this sort of stuff after living in Kirkwall after all those years.]

I read the note, but it was sort of hard to believe. I don't think Hawke would have let Thedas be destroyed like that. [She was worried about Hawke. They had been together when they left Kirkwall.] It's good to know that I'm not alone, at least. I wouldn't want to be alone in a place like this-- as long as the people here were nice. ... I'm rambling, sorry.

My name is Merrill, and it is nice to meet you, too.

[groovy_mutation]

[He'll give her a sympathetic smile. Her rambling was understandable in this situation.]

Don't worry about talking too much, you've just woken up to find out things are not what you knew before. I think it can be excused, Merrill.

Though you mentioned a Thedas... is that your world? I must admit I've never heard of it before.

[direbunnies]

Yes, that's the name of my world. It's nothing like this, really. [She sighs. This place is so... odd, compared to what she's used to. Everything is so much more advanced.] It doesn't seem so bad, at least.

[groovy_mutation]

Would I be asking to make to wonder how your Thedas is? [Is, not was.]

The people here are for the most part very helpful and in the same situation as you, so there is little to worry on that point. It's the Tower itself, where we are, that you will have to be careful. Some of the floors here are quite odd or potentially dangerous, so do go with caution until you familiarize yourself.

I will say that if you're hungry you need to head to the first floor, luckily there is an elevator for that.

[direbunnies]

I'll keep that in mind, thank you. And-- Thedas is beautiful. I'm sure it's fine.

[She tilts her head at the next comment, though.] What is an elevator?

sorry for the lateness, and lordy how did I mangle that first sentence so bad fff

[groovy_mutation]

We can only hope.

[And here he'd never thought of this. That people wouldn't know the same things as him. But it made sense. Being from a world not his own.]

It's something you stand on and it can move you up or down floors in a building. Basically a floor that moves you to another of your choosing.

IT'S OKAY, it happens! I THINK I GOT THE GIST OF IT?

[direbunnies]

That sounds sort of like the lift we had to use to get to Darktown. It was useful for getting around to those kind of places.

[She looks like she's sort of lost in thought-- thinking about these new things and all of that stuff. There's so much going on and it's somewhat difficult to process right away.]

\o/ I think you did too, thankfully XD

[groovy_mutation]

It certainly is. Especially when you cannot traverse stairs so easily anymore.

[And he notes her bout of spaciness. But honestly he can't blame her.]

Do you need any help figuring things out? I can try my best to explain anything if you don't know what it is.

awesome |D

[direbunnies]

[The spaciness is pretty common. This is the first of many bouts of that.]

I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask what else is in this tower. Is there anything important that I should know?

[groovy_mutation]

Mostly as I mentioned before, be careful as you move to the different floors here. Some could be dangerous, others are just... strange, but not harmful.

There are many different types of people here as well. And many versions as well. Like I myself am human, yet I can only assume there are humans on Thedas as well as you didn't seem alarmed by my appearance compared to your own. There is a large yellow fellow who while he might be frightening in looks is actually very pleasant to speak with.

So be cautious, but I suppose don't judge everyone here too quickly if you can allow it. We're all here together, for better or worse, until we figure out what is going on.

[direbunnies]

Yes-- we have a lot of humans on Thedas. Some of my best friends are human... and one's a dwarf, but I will keep what you said in mind. I'm not really one to judge others by appearance unless they're trying to kill me.

Hopefully we can figure out what is going on soon.

[groovy_mutation]

That is a fair enough way to go about things. [But even then he was still a bit wary about things.]

One can hope. The people who have been here for some time seem to know little more than we do, which is a bit unsettling.

[direbunnies]

That does seem unsettling. I don't really like this tower at all. It's not very pleasant feeling.
