"So you've got the parallel Earth, with at least some parallelism of countries and languages though I haven't been here long enough to say how deep it goes.

There are also native magical beings who didn't use to be humans. I am from one of the afterlives for a value of 'from' where I'm dead and used to be from the United States; us magical beings can be summoned."
