[A woman stands elsewhere in the Gardens, sporting a formal white dress. Or, at least, it is mostly white. Judging by the splatters on her neck, it should be pretty clear that the red is certainly not part of the dress

Looks like you got put through the ringer. You all right?

...where am I?

Ha! You're direct.

You're in a place called the Gardens. Looks like a paradise, but it's more like a prison, if you ask me. It's ruled by a woman called the Queen. The lady's a bit off her rocker, and I'm being charitable saying that much. [She leans in to the Mirror, a bit too close.] So, you get into a fight before you got here, or what?

...

Sounds more like someone's read too many fairy tales, to me.

[She pauses at that last part, and looks up.]

That's one way of putting it, yeah.

( Holy crap. Ellie hasn't seen wounds like that since-- well. It's been a little while, now. She's shocked for a second, but it quickly shuts down. )

I reckon the status report can wait. You want... bandages, or something?

[agentminiskirt]

Thanks, but I'll be fine.

[Stubborn as always.]

( Arched eyebrow, go. ) All right.

Welcome to the Garden, then. Animals talk. It's weird.

[Admittedly, some painkillers would be nice. Maybe a drink or two. But she should regenerate soon.]

I've noticed, but I don't quite understand it...

[heretolookhot]

Oh my God! What the hell are you walking around for?

[agentminiskirt]

Well, seeing as I've got two legs and I'm in an unfamiliar location, I'd think it'd be apparent as to why...

[heteropennae]

A-ah!! Are you alright?! Do you need any help?!

[agentminiskirt]

I'm fine, yeah. It's not nearly as bad as it looks. I just need to find some clean clothes.

[heteropennae]

Not as bad... But it looks...

Um. I think I may be able to treat your wounds.

[agentminiskirt]

Thanks... I appreciate the offer, I really do. But my body just needed a few minutes to heal on its own. Too bad it doesn't take care of blood stains and bullet holes just as well.

[ Bullet wounds is something Emilia became quite familiar with when she was in Bosnia during the war. So her concern is quite evident in her voice. ]

You're at the Queen's Gardens, but I think you should prioritize your worries. You're bleeding. You should-- You should go get that checked. I'm sure there's a medic here.

[agentminiskirt]

Someone mentioned something about snakes, but I think I'll pass on that kind of medical checkup. But I'm okay, really. It's just blood.

[Clearly someone's being very dismissive.]
