"Yeah, it won't be," Erin agrees softly. "And to catch you up, while Excalibur being cursed or not depends on the story, my Earth currently has like...nine...blades said to be Excalibur and Wales wants them back. Not a high stakes matter but enough for an adventurous lass and her fighty apprentice to drop by."
Dimitri is ushered into Erin's room, and then the rift in her closet, which lets out into...
A meal.
A big meal.
A meal to end all other meals.
A solid half of this baseball stadium has been converted for the feast, which is nearly ready. There's food on grills, on charcoal trenches, in fryers, being pulled from fridges and coolers, food of all kinds - noodles, pastries, kebabs, burgers, soups, grilled and fried vegetables, cheese, it's like someone pulled out the stops to get food from every culture this port city can boast. The stands are packed with mortals and press; even more press teams circulate among the guests.
And the guests! A dizzying array of Lost, more than two hundred strong, plus mortal guests - their friends and family, political guests, athletes and bodybuilders, even the odd food critic or twelve. No one is eating just yet, though if the tables get many more dishes they might just buckle.
Erin flashes Dimitri a smile and lets him soak it in.
