Exotica's face turns beet read but at the last second she sees the look on Astra's face and chokes down her rage. "We are not some adventuring party, where everyone plays a role," she says with a measure of decorum, "we are simply trying to get back home. I have never even heard of this kingdom before." Laendra's purple pinpricks of light flash brilliantly in amusement. "You stink of a different reality," she says matter-of-factly. "Your kingdom is not here. How did you get here? That is something I am extremely curious about." She then turns her cowl to the side and speaks. "Fetch Arturius." She then gestures towards the food. "Eat, and contemplate what will happen to you if you do not provide me solid answers when next we speak. I will return shortly." "Now wait just a minute," interjects Josh, who has found himself finally snapping out of the shock of arriving wherever they are. Laendra pauses on her way out of the room and looks at him expectantly. "I demand some answers myself, because.. ow!" for Astra had kicked him in the shin. The Nira silently leaves the room, and all of the doors leading out of the room close themselves, with a slam and the sound of bars and locks. Astra, Exotica, Belboz, and Josh take a look around the room. Besides the table prepared with fruits and breads and other foodstuffs [37] (all of which smell delicious), the room is large and lavishly appointed. There are windows covered with thick deep purple drapes, couches with midnight blue pillows, the giant door they came in through, and four other sets of doors in the other three walls. There is also a dias upon which there stands a pedestal. On the pedestal rests a crystal figurine in the shape of a person with two arms, two legs, and many tentacles where the head should be. Even glancing at this figurine makes Astra feel nauseous. What does our group decide to do?
