The Earthlings native and adopted stay in Marlatia, hiding uneventfully in the guest room, for several days. Isabella immortalizes king and queen both when they sneak her to a sufficiently large, empty, and unoccupied room to do it in. When Adarin has enough mana he makes mirror pairs for each of their majesties to contact their counterpart - Isabella's portal bag is kind of accumulating mirrors at this point. And when he has more mana still, Iobel finds a slightly-bigger-than-door-sized plank and a set of hinges and some screws and combines all these objects on the ceiling of a lockable room on the first floor but out of the way, currently serving as storage for a lot of broken musical instruments that someone once probably identified as probably repairable. This plank gets a portal on it, and the Earthlings go home.
After catching up on business - and allowing time to recover mana, again - and getting their Marlatian alts a laptop each, and putting a router and chargers within easy reach of the portal on their side, which is also on a sheet of wood but is kept in their basement propped up against a wall -
Isabella snuggles up to her husband and suggests searching the planes for more of themselves.

"Nah, just wondering. You are wholly welcome to be awake. And sitting up. And snuggling me."

Idania is currently watching this and wondering if she can distill and bottle this absurd level of sweetness. She could make tons of money, selling it as an alternative to sugar.

Eventually they find a nice mountain. It has nooks and crannies that will be hard to access without flying or hoverbiking, in which portals might go. It has flattish parts that are more accessible from the mountain's base, on which houses might be put by people who cannot fly or hoverbike with their house materials.
"Does this look like the place to you?" Aya asks Idania.

"Oooo, yeah," agrees Idania. "I will bug Rae to scootch his domain closer to here. How much trouble do you think we'll have getting people to build houses on top of a mountain?"

"Same! Though replace 'temple dorm' with 'wherever I feel like.' Maybe some nice people will let me borrow their couch!"

"Plus I kind of want to wander around and figure out everything that's changed. I've been dead for a while, I've got a lot of catching up to do!"
