Re: ((It's okay, no worries)) Was that a wedding dress? "Well, Ella of Frell, I don't think standing here in the middle of the avenue is a good idea," Diana suggested. "For good or ill, right now Los Angeles is not a pleasant place to be, as it is under a...well, not a full-out attack, but definitely forces are at work." So, Ella wasn't aware of either Los Angeles or California. If those same forces that brought Diana here had plucked this poor girl from her place--and time?--then Diana wasn't going to leave her to the streets.
"Listen, Ella, I don't mean to presume, but it seems like you are at a bit of a loss. Can I ask if you have a place to stay, or friends you can contact?"
