Asgardian Gethsemene, Part 1.
When the Exiles materialize in their next location, they have a lot of new company in the middle of a rock-strewn, windy field. In the distance, there is a building with a slanted, thatched roof. It is the only building in the immediate vicinity, though those with sharp eyes may see various small structures even further in the distance.

They will soon find that they are indeed near the intersection point of the immediate territory surrounding the city of Asgard proper, the mountain kingdom of the dwarves, and the enchanted forest of the Wolves.

Several about are willing to talk to them, particularly of the dwarves and wolves, since their respective sovereigns sort of asked them to watch out for the guests.

There's a lot of wild country about, and thick cover that could be delved into. As she, Jubilee, and Jason separate off, Meggan squint. "I've got a funny feeling about ...that. over east.."

	Jubilee pulls back the sleeve on her jacket, getting a feel for the sunlight and frowning. "No, sorry. Got a trick for that, but not reliable in this much daylight, not even having fed on Logan before I left. I'll need help." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Meggan shrugs. "We can carry you; I just might've had trouble with two." And up they go, checking out the terrain. Most things look normal. Until, eventually... there's something that looks like an incredibly tiny, partially underground fortress. Or like it was. There's also a lot of charred ground. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Meggan's thoughtful for a moment. Without thinking about it, she gets taller, a bit furrier, her teeth growing sharper. "Something was ..." A red flickering in her eyes. "some things were... determined." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Meggan sniffs. "Nope. Nothing here but dead fire and ... traces of ... wolf, I think, and ..." she sifts through the rubble and holds up a very, very thin chain. "Think this is magic." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The glider dissolved as Jason jumped to the ground. He walked over to the pair, examining the chain. "It's different than what I'm used to, but it's definitely magic," he agreed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jubilee sniffs the chain and nods. "Definitely wolf." She circles a bit, getting the lay of the area. "I think it went that way." She points into the distance. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That you are," Dory says, cracking his neck and giving Nate his best no, officer, we're not up to anything at all smile. "Try not to push it, and let's go play tourist somewhere with a reasonably-sized crowd." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Dory and Nate exiles_misc 2013-06-06 02:54 am UTC (link)
	And a reasonably sized crowd they will find, mostly of Aesir and Dwarves, most of those standing somewhat apart from each other, though not hostilely, and talking. Nate will find taht the general background surface thoughts will tend to match the general conversation quite well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Might find something faster if we can get in on a conversation," Dory answers, surveying the crowd and shifting his ears ever-so-slightly to try and catch a conversation on a topic he can slip in on -- maybe something about the weather (which can be turned to finding out more about Storm, and maybe Thor), or if anyone's talking about the strange new guests (them).

"You just keep eavesdropping, I'll see what I can do about talking."

	And indeed, there will be a conversation in re the fact that The Girl Who Is Not Irene Fandralsdottir carried Mjolnir, and how nice it would be if Thor returned, and that Lady Ororo would likely be relieved. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Dory and Nate force_of_will 2013-06-09 01:52 am UTC (link)
	"Got it," Nate says letting him do the talking for now while he kept a mental ear on the crowd just in case. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Dory drifts the pair of them toward the conversation that sounds most like gossip. Gossipers are generally more than happy to fill in the blanks for new people, if you approach them right.

"No, it's absolutely a Mjolnir from another universe," he chimes in, and shrugs a little when it draws attention to him -- as if that wasn't his goal in the first place. "I was surprised when I saw it too, but it's definitely Mjolnir, and she's definitely not from where I'm from." He pours on the charm and sketches an appropriate little bow. "Dorian Valentine, reality- and conversation-jumper, I'm afraid."

And they will happily introduce themselves with hard-to-pronounce Aesir names that Dory will likely pronounce correctly anyway, and mention that nevertheless, Lady Ororo will probably appreciate any help she can get. Balder really ought to help more, but his wife keeps him away, apparently claiming that he'll have enough ruling to do after Ragnarok and can stay in Nornheim now. "...and who knows how soon he'll be needed," one of the dwarves remarks ominously from the corner.

Nate will sense feelings of doubt and suspicion spiking between the people involved, even though no one feels like they're lying.

"Is that what you're expecting is coming, sir?" Dory asks, turning to include the dwarf who'd spoken in the conversation, though he makes sure not to actually turn his back on his previous conversation partners. They might have more information to share -- or their responses to the dwarf's comment or his answer to Dory's question might point him in the direction of more questions to ask.

	"King Eitri's father oft talked of being prepared, and prepared to help the Aesir, at that. The young king does the same, especially after his father's murder -- aye, murder. But..." "But we needed more information," says the familiar-looking young woman coming through the doors of the meadhall, apparently finishing the sentence. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Dory and Nate notallhunkydory 2013-07-01 07:10 am UTC (link)
	Dory doesn't quite do a double-take at the new arrival, but he does jab a (relatively) gentle elbow into Nate's ribs as he bows his greeting to her. It's a curious resemblance, to be sure. He lets some of the surprise leak into his facial expression. "On which matters?" he asks politely. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Dory and Nate force_of_will 2013-07-01 02:13 pm UTC (link)
	Nate was focusing his attentions on the odd feels of doubt and suspicion come up around the topic of Nornheim and trying to figure out why when Dory jabbed him in the ribs. That was definitely strange to see. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
