[she nods]

That's the position I ascended to - depending on the form I've taken, I'm the Lord or Lady Windmaster, the most powerful elemental god of the winds.

[alteracion]

Nice. It's too bad you didn't get to keep that power here.

[shiftingwinds]

Right? It would have been useful!

...do you have any powers you're missing?

[alteracion]

Nope. I'm just a normal human. I don't really know anyone with powers either. Well, before coming here.

[shiftingwinds]

I see... I wonder what it is about a world that determines if the people within it have powers or not.

[alteracion]

I don't know. There's plenty of stuff with powers on the train, but they're denizens. It's just how they are.

[shiftingwinds]

Denizens...? [she tilts her head to one side] Like the people from the dog kingdom you talked about before, or something else?

[alteracion]

Yeah, like the dog kingdom. Stuff like that. Train denizens can be anything, really. Just... [ she hesitates and shrugs ] not humans.

[shiftingwinds]

Is that why the humans who make it onto the train are really special, like you? ...because it's not something that normally happens?

[alteracion]

Sort of? The train exists for humans. That's why passengers are so important.

[shiftingwinds]

I see... [hmm] Then, how did the denizens end up there too?

[alteracion]

They've always been on the train. They're... [ a beat, like she's thinking it over: ] train people.

[shiftingwinds]

I see...

[huh. she can't imagine just spending her whole life in a single place...]

[alteracion]

A lot of them never leave their car. [ raises her hand ] It's a thumb thing.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh! That makes sense - doors would be hard to open without them.

[alteracion]

Yep. The craftier ones find a way around it, but it's pretty rare to see denizens outside their own area.

[shiftingwinds]

But you can go from area to area, since the train is made for you... how interesting!

[alteracion]

Yep. We've made ways to get around faster, too, by skipping cars using grappling hooks. It's pretty cool.

[shiftingwinds]

Wow! That sounds like a sight to see!

[alteracion]

It is! I'd show it off if I could, but...

[ gestures. she dont have it. ]

[shiftingwinds]

It's alright. Though I wonder, if it's something that got left behind - could we find the supplies to make something like it?

[alteracion]

... Probably not? There's not a lot of supplies that would work for that around here.

[shiftingwinds]

That's too bad! It might've been fun to try grappling in that one room when you flip that switch that makes you float.

[alteracion]

Oh, I've done that. Gravity on the train turns off sometimes, it's easy to get around with just the hook pack.

[ she mimes shooting!! ]

[shiftingwinds]

I'd have liked to see that!
