I'll admit, you've got one interesting place here.

[The voice belongs to a young woman, and sounds to be in her early to mid-twenties. A bit tired perhaps, but whatever stress she feels is being carefully restrained as she begins her plea for information - with an introduction naturally.] As practiced as that orientation is at the Welcome Center, I take it everyone is rather used to newcomers. So, hi. Name's Abigail, and I'm from a city called San Fransokyo.

[There's a pause that follows, but the hesitation is shaken off as she proceeds to her point.]

Just walking into the city in the first place showed me a lot. And keeping an open mind, the whole Great Turtle is begging a lot of questions, but I have one thing I would like to confirm.

For lack of a better way to say it, did time really stop back where we came from? Has anyone been able to verify it somehow? I ask because I transitioned here at a really...inopportune moment.

[Excuse. Her city is awesome.]

The one regarding the reported lack of disruption to our own timeline, yes.

As for the others, I've thought of so many that I'm starting to lose track of them all. [Something that she is not happy about one bit.]

I expect that to be a recurring ailment.

[He has more than a few questions, himself.

But, since she wasn't more forthcoming, he's going to assume someone more knowledgeable has the situation handled.]

If you will excuse me, then, I'm sure I can find something else to do with my time.

[If she were less tired, less hungry, and less cold the situation would be very different. The questions would not stop.]

Thanks for checking. [It was nice of him, whoever he is, to at least try to answer her biggest worry.]
