12 Black Feathers [Action]
[ It's early in the morning when it happens.
A small area of black appears near the fountain, just floating in the air. As the minutes pass, it slowly grows until it's about ten feet in diameter, even partially consuming the fountain. About ten minutes after it first appears, Saten fades into view in the very middle, appearing almost as if she's asleep. She floats there for about three seconds before abruptly dropping to the ground.
At that, she seems to wake up. She lifts her head after a moment and slowly looks around. It takes several more seconds before she slowly pulls herself to her feet.
She spends a while looking about her, but before too long the fountain catches her attention. Or in particular, the water in the fountain. When you've never seen anything before, fluid dynamics are absolutely fascinating. So despite the fact that everything non-living within a five foot radius of her turns pitch black, she spends the next several hours running her hand through and splashing at the water. After all, she can see it just fine.
She can be found in the vicinity of the fountain for pretty much the rest of the day and well into the night. Saten is more than content with just staying where she is and observing everything around her for a while. She may not be dressed like a New Feather, but she does seem to be acting a lot like one. ]

What he hadn't expected when he reached the plaza though, was.... he didn't even know what this was. It was like a big black blot had started to cover the fountain area, all centering around a woman.] Whoa.
[She didn't seem to look at all distressed, either.]
[action]
Hi there.
[ Wow there's actually lots of other people here! ]
[action]
Are you ok?
[action]
[action]
But apparently, no, there wasn't. He shakes his head, closing his eyes for a moment before opening them with a wry grin.] Just checking.
[action]
Who are you?
[action]
...Her voice sounded kind of familiar. But from where?]
[action]
I just got here. So everything is still new to me.
[action]
Saten, then. Welcome to Luceti.
[action]
Thanks! How long have you been here?
[action]
Did anyone explain everything about this place to you?
[action]
Re: [action]
You did just show up here, right? [Doesn't she find that a little odd?]
[action]
[ When "showed up" is the best phrase she has for "was born", the implications of statements can change drastically... ]
Re: [action]
Most people are pretty confused by that.
[action]
Why?
[ She is pretty confused, but not by showing up here... ]
Re: [action]
People just show up here. In their home worlds one moment, here the next. It's disorienting.

[ Well, not originally! But, welp. ]
