[A small, dark-haired woman in a long, dark blue velvet cloak appears on the Plane. She is pale, with blood red lipstick and dark makeup around her eyes--eyes that look strikingly unnatural even at first glance. They are a pale, vivid blue, with a kind of radial starburst pattern in the color.]

[She stops, quite suddenly, and looks around before taking another tentative step forward.]

What is this place? I don't remember—

That shop, what was it? Those children...are they the cause of this?

[Another step, and she reaches up to drop the hood of her cloak]

Are my eyes deceiving me? But why would I see the stars? Not darkness, but beauty...is this a dream? No bodies, no surgeons....

A wonderful dream, then.

[It's a tragic curse. :|]

Where I'm from, the Sorceresses look like you. [By which she means "beautiful, graceful, ageless and slightly imposing". Not that she'd say as much, because that... requires words.]

But I can't tell if you're a Good one or a Bad one, so I figured I ought to ask, because I have to protect this place, and if you're a Bad Witch I ought to know about it. It's nothing personal, y'understand!

[She's silent for a moment, then smiles slightly.]

Where I come from, witches and sorceresses only exist in fairy stories. I am known as Blind Mag; I'm a singer.

Well, I suppose I am a fairy story, or so I've been told. I don't mean to make assumptions, Miss.

[She gives a little curtsy, which is kind of funny since she's got blue jeans on, but whatever. Politeness!]

My name's Dorothy. I'm a... well, I'm a lot of things, really. What sort of singer are you? If y'don't mind me askin'.

[Her smile widens a bit, and she curtsies back gracefully.]

It's a pleasure to meet you Dorothy. I'm an opera singer...have you never heard of the Genetic Opera?

[her lips press together in a straight line, in thought]

No, Miss, I can't say as I have. But that's nothing special-- I'm a farmgirl, y'see, and I'm not very well cultured in that sort of thing.

[That's ignoring the fact of her being a princess in another world, there. But this lady is new, and... y'know, baby steps.]

[Mag smiles kindly]

Dorothy, would you be able to tell me what this place is?

[galeforcehero.livejournal.com]

Oh! Well, I'll do my best. It's called The Plane, it's some kind of enormous machine where people from all kinds of different universes come together. Some people are magic, some are aliens, some people have really advanced technological stuff, and some have time machines! Everybody's really interesting, and most people are nice, but some are kind of dangerous so you should be kind of careful.

Oh! And there are a couple people who all have the same face, but they're all different, so you have to remember which one is which.
