As the fanfare and the lights subsided, she found herself in a bizarre place, unlike any she had ever seen. The trees of her home world were replaced by gargantuan grey columns that stretched toward the sky, dull and grey unlike the brilliant blue she was accustomed to. Hundreds of people both like and unlike her swarmed the streets, all without magic, their lights dim. More than wonder, she felt fear of the place. She could not read the land here as she could at home. This land was dead, and yet—it was so alive.

Why she was chosen for this task above her sisters, she was unsure. They were larger, stronger, fit to be queens, and here she was, small and weak, hardly beautiful, holding the tome the gods had given her and standing in a strange and mysterious place. Checking the name on the inscription one last time, she tucked the scrolls away into her bag and continued down the wide street, weaving in and out of the myriad people. Her large eyes peered up at them from beneath her hood, but none even glanced her way. It was if she were invisible. She had to find this "Zephyr" and soon… hopefully, he held the answers.
Short little vague entry for Odyssey!
