Their mission had brought them to Sorceror's World, which led to their first lead -- a strange artifact that, if completed, would allow them to find how the Spectre had been imprisoned the first time. After the golden device had been activated and revealed this, they all suddenly found themselves teleported in teams of two to new locations.

Strange, weird, and magical new locations.

It may actually be a good thing that the magic ran out so abruptly, because Pidge doesn't get a chance to look at her surroundings before she loses her balance and ends up with a face-full of salty sand.

It didn't hurt, but she just ate total shit in front of someone and it's embarrassing. So it takes her a few moments to spit it all out before she can actually take a moment to look around.

Miku manages to catch herself before she can do the same, landing a short distance behind Pidge, "Paladin, are you alright?" She hurries over to make sure the other Legionnaire but hangs back to avoid hovering.

The smell of salt was too much, and while Pidge cleared her mouth of it, Miku looked around, "...What a sad place."

"Fine, fine, just...give me a second." As she's bent over, she notices an odd piece of metal on the ground. It's curved, and it could have been from a boat at one time, but it's no metal that Pidge recognizes and it looks like it's been rotting here forever.

"It looks...ancient. But not ancient ancient, ancient from the future." She fishes the metal out of the sand, getting lost in her speculation. "I mean if we were from the future, this place would be ancient. Everything kind of looks dead here, but there's no way to be sure there's no life..."

She's going off on a bit of a ramble now.

Miku turns her head and frowns, "Paladin? We're not the only ones on this beach..." They look horrifying, but she doesn't run. Not yet.

They... might be friendly?


Maybe?

Pidge looks up and then starts, immediately bringing the piece of metal up to protect her vital parts and moving in front of Miku to protect hers too.

"Zombies? They look a lot like zombies."

But of course, she can't really make that judgement call as long as there are aliens about. But she's also not a damn fool, so she adjusts her grip on the metal and moves her hand to her bayard.

"Hello?"

Longago? Long Ago? Miku cast a look at Pidge, "In a manner of speaking, yes." She nodded slightly. The creature really was unsettling; Pidge's assessment of a Zombie wasn't far off from what Miku had been thinking. "Who are you?"

"We're here peacefully!" Always an important thing to clear up. "And...accidentally. Where is this place?"

Miku's brow furrowed. It would be a little silly to say this sort of thing had shocked her, after everything else in the last few weeks. And as little offence to the human-not-humans before her, they were bound to join in the vestigial nightmares left behind by her previous mission. "There are lots of people, yes... though I can't say much on things like food production, that's beyond me. Ah, but... but getting back to the subject at hand; we're rambling..."

She glances at Pidge and smooths a hand over her skirt. She has no desire to see a sea spider. Or any spider, for that matter.

"Do you think you could show us the way the man went, coming from the end?"

"Millions of us. Feeding everyone was...complicated."

Pidge still isn't sure what to make of these people, and she's not totally trusting of them. They seem as curious about the world that came before them as Pidge is about the world that will come after her. Has come after her?

But they have no idea what ground they're treading on. OK, they do, it's a beach of the future. But they don't know what these people are like or anything about their culture. She can follow Miku's lead on this one.

"That's right. We need important information from him."

Flippers? Miku's brow furrowed some, and a little part of her hoped that they wouldn't suffer the same fate.

It was very had to do any kind of good cleaning with flippers.


"We shall we, don't you worry." Miku smiled at the zombie human(?) as best as she could. "I have the highest confidence that we'll get back home."

Pidge tries very hard to hide her nervous gulp. She doesn't do it very well. Do they mean that time...resets and they have to evolve into humans again if they mess this up? What a horrible thought, one that she's not going to share with Miku before they're alone.

"Thanks for the tip. We'll try to avoid the...flippers." She finally lets go of the metal, letting it fall from her hands and onto the sand below. Part of her wants to take it back to study but...it's just too big. A dream deferred.

That... doesn't look very safe. Still, she bows respectfully and straightens up. "Thank you, very much, for you advice and direction. We'll be going now."

She glances in the direction of the shimmering, shooting star void and nods to herself. "We should go, Paladin..."

Pidge nods at Miku, turns back to give a quick wave to the people who helped them, and then starts off in that direction.

It's difficult to tell what exactly they're walking into, but Pidge finds herself enthralled by the way the space warps and glimmers in a way that dark matter usually does not.

"It's really beautiful out here. I mean, for being so desolate."
