She nodded grimly, simply glad that he hadn't laughed in her face and told her that she had lost her mind. She couldn't have blamed him for it, though maybe being magically whisked away into another world made you more willing to believe in the unbelievable in general.
"Yes, it happened to me," she confirmed. She did appreciate the smile, even if she didn't quite smile back but her body language relaxed at his open acceptance. "I come from the city of Nevernight in Qishan, though I was in Yiling when I was taken. This town you're in is called Gazin, by the way, in the province of Farsennia. It is bordered by the countries of Suthlan and Verimas... none of these are familiar to me, but maybe this information is more use to you than me."
Which isn't the most unsettling part, though, Farsennia could simply be some faraway part of the world that hasn't been explored yet. It's only her well-practiced self-control that keeps her from pacing as she gets to the part that makes returning home seem so terribly out of reach. "There are several people from home here, but we were all taken at different points in time. The others are years ahead of me... decades, even, in some cases."
