[Euri isn't entirely sure what happened. One moment she was out in the forest, gathering some herbs for another batch of potions for her mother. She had managed to climb up one of the smaller giant mushrooms in other to gather some rare hanging dragon's breath, when everything suddenly changed. That mushroom changed into a metal street light, and all the trees had become huge, ugly brick buildings. From green to... greys and browns.

With a squeak of surprise she lets go of the street light, landing very unceremoniously onto the sidewalk and the contents of her basket ending up scattered all over. The only not completely terrible thing about her change in situations is that it's late evening and the street looks empty, so it seems no one saw any of that.

Several choice swears later Euri is pushing herself to her feet, glancing about thoroughly confused. What the fuck? She stays a deer in headlights for several minutes before she decides to do the first thing that comes to mind, and that is awkwardly moving to gather up her basket and its spilled contents.]

Because how do they fly if they don't use magic??

[cachinnate]

They do, dear, but it's not difficult magic. [For those capable anyway lsdkfj]

[occulthymns]

That sounds dumb and weird.

[cachinnate]

Rude, dear, they're an important part of human commerce these days.

[occulthymns]

I don't care. They're still strange!

[cachinnate]

I suppose if you're not used to them...

[occulthymns]

I don't see how anyone could get used to them.

[cachinnate]

You get used to a lot of things when you see them everyday, my dear.

[occulthymns]

[She sticks her tongue out at him.]

I could never get used to this city.

[cachinnate]

That's what I said, darling.

[Sticks his tongue out... back alsdfj maturity]

[occulthymns]

[A++]

No, it wouldn't matter how many times I see the stuff in it, I'd still never get used to it!

[cachinnate]

[LKJDFKLJ little sigh, shrugging slightly]

As you please, my dear.

[occulthymns]

[She huffs a little, resting both her elbows on the table.]

I wouldn't.

[cachinnate]

[Leans over, setting a hand on her shoulder and squeezing it a little]

I think you'd be surprised how quickly you adapted...

[occulthymns]

[She shakes her head stubbornly.]

I won't. I refuse to.

[cachinnate]

[ffff fond little chuckle goes here]

Stubborn...

[occulthymns]

[She shoots him a small glare.]

Am not.

[cachinnate]

[SNERKS???? LSKDJFLSJDF EURI]

As you please, darling.

[occulthymns]

Stop saying that!

[cachinnate]

[KSJDKLASF]

What should I say instead, my dear.

[occulthymns]

I don't know, not that.

[cachinnate]

[Hmmmm... little sigh ffff Poor girl. Another shoulder squeeze, moving to put his arm around her again...]

You'll be alright, my dear. Maybe not in the city, but you will be.

[occulthymns]

[She glances up at him.]

What do you mean?

[cachinnate]

Assuming... and I am only assuming at this point. [Because they still gotta go find a researcher or something see what they have to say] But assuming that you can't get back, you hardly have to stay in this city. There are rural communities. You could travel. If you are capable, you could likely manage to live in the woods if you wanted.

This [Little gesture out the window] is not all there is for you, darling.

[occulthymns]

[She hadn't really given any thought to what was outside this city... but what he was saying made sense. She at least wouldn't have to stay in this city.]

... What about you?
