*Well, there's a door here. Seems similar to the ones that have been appearing lately. It looks oddly fancy in an inexplicable way... There's a strange dial on the door that can't be adjusted, which is currently blank. There's a note on the door.

The note reads "This Door Connects With Any Of The Various Timelines I Have Connected To My Garden. Right Now, It Is Set To Pull Through Whoever Is Closest When It Opens. I Have Added A Dial To The Door To Indicate If A Person Is Their Timelines Equivalent Of Myself Or Kishar - Indicated By Cyan - Utur, - Indicated By Yellow - Alam - Indicated By Magenta - Or If They Are Someone Specific To Their Timeline - Indicated By Green. Caution; Not Everyone Is Friendly. Should You Wish To Remove Someone Back To Their Original Timeline, Just Call My Name. Try Not To Cause Too Much Trouble. - Persephone."

The note is written in a slightly-glowing cyan ink on black paper. It smells oddly of roses.*

[@helpfulbusdriver runs right into Persephone with an alarmed shout.]

*Persephone seems surprisingly unphased by this, and steadies themself quickly. They appear to be carrying groceries of some sort*

Ah - Are You Quite Alright? I Did Not See You There

@helpfulbusdriver

[thedarkgardens]

That baby...

[Gary looks at them a little closer]

Ah, another from an alternate timeline...

@stardust-requiem

*The baby chirps at Gary, reaching out to it slightly with a little tendril*

Indeed, An Alternate Universe Version Of Kishar. You Seem... Emotional. Something You Wish To Share With The Class?

@stardust-requiem

[thedarkgardens]

Who's that baby you're holding?

Ah, This Is Little Flower - An Alternate Version Of Kishar. I Believe They Are Barely A Day Old...

*Little Flower chirps at Jackie, looking at her with wide, glowing eyes*

[Someone is watching Persephone.] @lavenderandmystery (void)

*They look up, and smile, politely*

I Can Feel You Are Here. Hello There, I Am Persephone. May I Know Your Name?

*They see no reason not to be friendly and polite*

[Jackie walks by, carrying her slightly burnt starship]

Oh hey, Dama! How're you?

Ah, I Am Afraid I Am Not Your Dama, My Dear. Not Quite.

*They do look very similar to Kishar... save for the fact they're very feminine presenting, with short hair*

I Believe Myself To Be An Alternate Version Of Them, Actually - I Go By Persephone. May I Know Your Name, Child?

[thedarkgardens]

[It seems Jackie circled back around, having lost the parking lot. She still has the starship in her hands.]

Oh, hey Persephone! I've been wondering what I'm like in your timeline?

Oh, Hello Dear. Well, I Personally Think She Is Very Smart And Kind, Though Perhaps I Am Biased As I Did Adopt Her. Well, My Version Of Merlyn Did, And My Sunshine And I Came Along For The Ride, But I Am Glad Of It. Though I Do Not Know You Well Enough To Know Where You Two Differ Yet...

[thedarkgardens]

Oh... Hello, you seem familiar, but I don't think we've met before! My name's Merlyn, what's yours?

Ah, I Go By Persephone - I Am From An Alternate Timeline To The One We Are Currently In. Things Are... Fluid, Here, Shall We Say, So It Drew My Attention. I Have A Counterpart Native To This Timeline, Kishar, I Believe You Know Them? Apologies, I Am Uncertain If I Know Your Counterpart Or Not, Though I Believe I Do.
