This was a
very strange place, Edward had decided. He'd spent some time watching the car-beasts, observing people getting in and out of them, and had deduced that the witch had been correct when she'd told him they didn't eat people. The people seemed perfectly willing to get into the beasts, and none of them seemed to be getting eaten.
The buildings were strange as well; so
tall, and --

He'd found something that looked familiar, though -- a little park, with a tiny pond containing thirteen small golden fish, two crabs the size of his thumb, and a duck and her ducklings. Delighted, Edward squatted by the pond, forgetting to shift his sword out of the way so it didn't stick into soft earth, and reached a hand out to the ducklings. Andalasian ducklings always liked being petted, even if they were too young to
