The world looks normal to the people who live in it. When I went to one of the other reflections, it was so... strange. The geography was kind of similar to a place I knew, but the plants were a weird color, and the people and buildings were entirely different. It's like the difference between going to a city you're familiar with, and visiting the version someone made up in a fairy tale. Familiar and yet not familiar at all.

Right. I don't think it bears any connection to our homes at all, which begs the question of... how? I think that answer will be key to finding our way back.

Unfortunately, I'm not much of an expert when it comes to weird magical stuff. It'll take greater minds than mine to unravel this particular mystery. In the meantime, I'm just helping out where I can.
