Morgan doesn't strictly need to sleep. Even if she didn't want to put up with the annoyance of constantly having a caffeine buzz and having to ask for coffee on almost every summon, there are naps. Naps can keep a daeva going for quite a long time.
But there's something unutterably pleasant about curling up in a proper bed in pajamas and just sleeping. And then waking up and getting breakfast in those pajamas. So she does that, because immortality's a long unpleasant time if you don't enjoy the little things every now and then. Like adorable bunny slippers and soft pajamas and sleeping in.
She's midway through a fruity salad thing that counts as the standard fairy breakfast when she feels the summon. Showing up to a summon in pajamas? Eh. If they're proper summoners she bets they've seen worse, and she doesn't particularly care if they think she's unprofessional.
She puts her spoon down and accepts the summon.

The tall humanoid thing seems to be almost expecting it and doges it easily, then uses its own version of moving things to bring the lizard thing closer to itself.
And it starts moving back toward the Earth.

Aaaaaa!
Aaaaaaaa!
Nope nope nope nope run, just run, she bets she can outrun that mind-raping monstrosity-!

She can! She can outrun that mind-raping monstrosity! ...outfly. Outfly the mind-raping monstrosity.
In fact, the monstrosity seems to be taking its sweet time, not in much of a hurry. The lizard thing... isn't doing much of anything.

Well maybe she managed to kill it just from trying very hard for an extended period of time. But she doubts it.
Ugh ugh ugh she flies until she can't hear the thing in her head and then she keeps flying to Earth. Augh.
Where is that island, she can recognize it from the sky now, it was somewhere to the - well, right of Canada, maybe someone there can explain what the fuck.
Island: found. Now to find those people in the funny costumes and ask them what the fuck.

The people in the funny costumes are busy helping people on the island. Some look clearly poised for the fight to resume, though the rain and sea aren't acting in unnatural ways anymore.
...also it is clearly the past. That. That is a thing Morgan might notice now that she has stopped to look.
There are some people in funny costumes who seem to be issuing orders. One of them is a dude in a blue skintight bodysuit with white lightning on it and a blue mask covering the upper half of his face.

It's sort of hard to tell it's the past, she lives in Fairyland, she's not a dead summoner, she just started and then accepted some summons and got to see bits and pieces of the world, but she does notice.
...
That's bizarre. She doesn't know what to do with that. Or if she can do anything with that.
Well.
She flies up to the person in the blue and white skintight bodysuit.
"Hey, um," she says, "I have a lot of questions and am very confused and kind of terrified."
...

She flies up to the person in the blue and white skintight bodysuit.
"Hey, um," she says, "I have a lot of questions and am very confused and kind of terrified."
The person looks at her sympathetically, but then takes in the wings and the fact that it seems like she, well, like she just entered the atmosphere at high speed, and looks—confused. "Did you just get your powers?" he asks, trying to sound gentle.
notinoz
"I've, had some time with them, but - okay, I was the one that picked up the water, lizard thing, and took it to space? And then something else showed up that was doing, something to my head and what was that did it fuck with me do you know."
He blinks many times very rapidly then touches an earpiece and says, "Alexandria, Eidolon, I think you will want to come here."
To Morgan: "Was the something else humanoid, with lots of wings and feathers, possibly carrying junk with it?"
notinoz
"Yes. I tried to hit it with the lizard and it dodged it like it knew I was going to do it. And then I ran, because I know when I am outmatched and I was very very outmatched." Pause. "Had a good try at killing the lizard, though, I think I was making progress."
The man takes a few seconds to get his bearings. "The fact that you managed to send it away—thank you for that, by the way, you've saved countless lives and probably this whole island. Its name is Leviathan, and its friend is the Simurgh, and I am very curious about how you speak English and don't know those names." Alexandria arrives. "Do you know how long you spent with the Simurgh's song in your head?"
"The Simurgh?" Alexandria arrives, then looks at Morgan. "Did you have anything to do with that?"
"Apparently this young lady moved Leviathan somewhere and the reason the Simurgh disappeared was to go after and rescue him."
notinoz
She smiles a little, at hearing that she helped.
"... Couldn't have been over five minutes?" she estimates honestly. "I left pretty quickly when I realized it was in my head."
What, no, she didn't notice that comment about how she speaks English and didn't know those names.
"Space," she clarifies, "I moved him to space. Pretty far out, but still in the solar system, though I can't really give specifics because space is enormous and I had exactly zero calculators with me to figure out where I was relative to anything else. I would have tried dumping him in a sun or a black hole or something if I hadn't been worried about losing Earth and getting lost, or ruining the resident sun with his water generation abilities."

Alexandria looks at the guy who has neglected to introduce himself. "The Simurgh was probably predicting something like this was going to happen."
"How fast can you fly and move things?" not-introduced-guy asks.
New person, in a hooded cloak with a flat metal mask illuminated in green—presumably Eidolon—arrives as well, and Alexandria catches him up.
notinoz
"I can't break lightspeed," she says. "Aside from that? Uh." She smiles a bit. "Do you have other monster problems that might be solved by a field trip to space?"
"Yes," the three of them say simultaneously, differing in tone. Eidolon's voice echoes eerily.
"Are you from another Earth?" asks Alexandria.
"Well, if you don't know about the Endbringers you're probably not from Bet nor Aleph, but we didn't know there were any more portals anywhere around."
"...I'm Legend, by the way," Legend introduces himself, realizing the probably doesn't know who he is if she doesn't know about Endbringers either. "How did you arrive here?"

To tell the truth or to lie like a rug...
...
They seem to be heroic people that are trying to save the world. Let's tell most of the truth. Which means telling it somewhere that is not in front of everyone here.
"Um, can I explain this in a less public place? I mean, I will explain it, but."

"Um, can I explain this in a less public place? I mean, I will explain it, but."
They are very familiar with talking about things in less public places.
Legend looks around. "I will oversee the remaining disaster relief efforts here, if you have damaged Leviathan enough that the Simurgh saw fit to go rescue him he's not likely to return."
"We can find a private place to talk about it and Legend will join us later," Alexandria says.
notinoz
"... I mean, I can also help with disaster relief efforts," she points out, "because I can move arbitrary matter that I can see with my mind. Explaining things can wait, if you don't mind?"
"How likely is it that other people like you will come here, or that people from here will go to where you're from?" Alexandria asks after both Legend and Eidolon look at her for a second.
notinoz
"I don't think it's at all possible that people from here can get to where I came from." Pause. "... But it might be possible that other people like me can get here, or, um. Be brought here."
Alexandria thinks about this, then looks at Legend, who says, "We will be very glad to have your help."
notinoz
"Okay. I don't know what your systems are like, so - I'm fine with playing minion. Tell me what to do."
Both Alexandria and Eidolon go off to do things, and Legend says, "Come with me, I'll get you a comm device and we'll be able to direct you places where you'll be useful."
