She tucks Truth under her arm and carries it to the wizards to get further mission parameters.

Wizards explain!

First, by sending Mahli, they can confirm that they can send people to the correct universe at all. They will not be aiming for the planet, not when they could use an easier spell for that first test! Then, they will send a spellcaster to the planet. That can still have negative consequences if the spellcaster they send lands in the ocean, or in the middle of some kind of dangerous technological casting, or in a volcano, or something else quite unpleasant; the spellcaster will not die, and should then be able to teleport somewhere where they can stand. Finally, the spellcaster will make the first inter-universe portal!

"We don't have a lot of volcanoes but we do have a lot of ocean. Oh, and if they land in a red district they have to go out through the shower, right away."

The wizards discuss which of them finds this AN UNREASONABLE IMPOSITION, HOW DARE YOU, YOUNG LADY and which of them is going to be sent on this mission. They agree fairly quickly on  Grilbek.

Grilbek does want to know if being a goblin is going to be a problem.

"I think it should be fine! They'll be more excited about more alien-looking aliens anyway and it'll make it obvious you're not just in a disguise."

Great! The wizards get to work. First, they send Mahli. There's a bit of waiting while they work to scry on him- during which Truth is happy to tell them it worked and save everyone time and magic, if asked- and then they work on sending Grilbek.

Mahli, who has arrived in space, waits.

Grilbek goes through, and lands- on land! That's more convenient. He looks around before casting anything else.

He has landed in a garment factory full of very confused purples! One of them screams.

Tongues.

"No harm meant! I'm an alien from Arzum. Which country is this? Can you take me to your blues? Peace and goodwill."

And that's pretty much all Grilbek can eke out of the spell. He's regretting all that time spent on more "practical" skills he could have spent on wizardry.

Some purples get it together enough to take a picture of him and email it to somebody. Somebody else tells him that he's in Shi Cubrio.

Grilbek didn't get the geopolitical overview! None of the wizards thought about this at all and he is still mostly not thinking about this; all of his attention is on the machinery.

"Yeah, it worked. Don't waste your spells. Do we wait until he gets to one of their leaders, now?"

The wizards didn't really plan ahead! It's hard to kill an Arcadian, though, and Amentans sound fairly lawful.

The authorities of Shi Cubrio come to collect the alien in fairly short order!

Grilbek is very cooperative! Grilbek does not speak whatever they speak, and babbles in Celestial to indicate this.

They will dig up a linguist for him.

He can try to teach them Celestial, sure.

This will take a while even though the linguist is very diligent.

Meanwhile:

"Can you tell us where he is? We know he's on the planet, but what about the country?"

"I can tell Lintalai."

"Where did he land?"

"A factory in Shi Cubrio! There's a linguist talking to him now."

"...well, Shi Cubrio isn't ideal but if he tells them he wants to go to Anitam and get in touch with my family they'll probably let him... can we talk to him from here?"

"-none of these wizards could but a god could, and one is going to. What do you want Grilbek to know? All of it, all at once. You have time to think."
