There is a young lady in the square. It may not have been obvious when she appeared; she's just a normal woman - taller than average - in a brown trenchcoat. But she's there now, looking about her with a sense of curiosity that seems to want to take in everything and store it away forever. She's staring, possibly staring at you and reading you like a book. And apparently you're one of those really good books - the kind with more questions than answers, the kind that keeps you turning the pages long after you should have gone to bed - because her dark eyes glimmer with interest at each new aspect she notices and there's just the hint of a smile on her lips.

"Amazing," she murmurs to no one in particular, "no two of them are alike."

Lin thought she had heard the name before from one of their fellow "guests," but she had no real point of reference for it either.

"Iroh and I are from the same world," Lin mentioned, somehow succeeding at making conversation. "The world of the Four Nations."

"Northeastern United States..." Iroh stroked his beard. That did sound very familiar. "I think there are a few people here from there. It's been awhile since I've seen them." He wondered if Tommy and Merton had managed to make it back to their home.

"Your world has many nations, I think?"
