Mountain, meet Endbringer | Glowfic Constellation

She leads Mountain to a room where green-suit and laser-guy are. "This is Celtana. She claims she is not a parahuman, but something called a Vela. I am inclined to believe her, since apparently her world consists of an infinite plane of uniform terrain squares floating above an empty void."

"...are you certain she didn't lie to you?" asks laser guy.

"I am certain she believes everything she said."

"I could make a square. Though there is the problem of where to put it."

Alexandria translates this.

"How large are these squares, exactly?" green-suit asks.

"About fifty to a hundred of this temple would fit. But it would be a mountain square, possibly with forest or plains in a couple of slots. And mismatched terrain types create... Problems. I'm not sure at all what it would do here."

"I don't think we should do this anywhere inhabited," laser-guy says.

"We could do it on somewhere uninhabited and large like Antarctica," green-suit proposes.

Alexandria shakes her head. "That might cause seismic or weather problems anyway." She pauses to translate all of this, explaining what Antarctica is as best she can, and naming the other two Legend and Eidolon when referring to them.

She nods at the names. "I can avoid it. I probably should learn more about this... Sphere, but I'm going to need to sleep for a couple days soon, to get back to full power."

"Alexandria probably can explain better than any of us, she's more likely to remember details of physics that you'd find relevant," Legend says.

"And you are all powerful. That means busy. I was imagining learning to read more and hovering in a library."

"If you need book detail, then yes that might be better," Alexandria says. "But now I am the only person who can speak a little of your language. We are looking for someone that can help, but that might take time."

"I want book detail eventually... I am lost. Not forever, probably, but I am lost. Now, nothing is certain, like an earthquake of my life. Something to do would help."

Alexandria is slightly frustrated about being unable to get the kind of detail and nuance she would like in language, but she'll cope. "I learn very fast, most others don't, and I don't have time to translate books. You may stay here and try to talk to people in English—" the word 'English' is actually in English "—and we will get a person who is good at languages—" because 'linguist' is not a word she knows "—to try to decode yours if we don't find a parahuman—" human with powers "—that can do it."

She switches over to English completely. "English, yes. Thank you. I will wait and practice a power."

Legend looks worried. "Where?"

She holds up the glob of metal in her palm. It turns into a somewhat crude rendition of an unfamiliar animal. "Control."

He relaxes and nods.

"Would you prefer to meet other people and be shown around, or do you want us to find you a mountain?" Alexandria asks.

Back to her own language. "I'd prefer to find a mountain and rest before doing much else. Fighting that monster was... Tiring."

"Very well. How... quiet can you be when entering a mountain?" Discreet is not a word she knows.

"No louder than the flying thing. I will take care not to cause tremors."

"I meant more as in..." She does a vague flashy gesture. "Visual and sounds and people see."

"You want me to hide?" She covers her sculpture. "Hide rock. Hide me? Why?"

"Mountain nearby is public. Not allowed to alter or live in, need to convince the right people."

"Hm. Ocean public? No ocean people in this world. Can make mountain in ocean. Can hide in public mountain now, want own mountain later."

She thinks about it and nods. "Will be far from people, though. But ocean here is very big."

"Good... Will that monster come back? I want to." She switches away from English. "Kill it for daring to try and destroy hundreds of tiles. Or try to kill it at least."
