There's a superhero in America called the Doorman who can do the same thing...

[battling]

[blankly]

"America"?

[wtfox]

The United States of America...? It's a country.

[battling]

Is this one of those "Earth" things?

[wtfox]

Mmhm. What are the countries called in your world?

[battling]

North, West, South, East and Central.

[wtfox]

Oh! Well, that makes it easy to get around even if you have a bad sense of direction, huh!

[battling]

Haha, yeah. 's just the way they were named. Way before my time.

[wtfox]

They're good names! Very practical.

[battling]

Makes it easy t' tell where yer going. It's nice.

Anyway, does, uh. "Doorman"- they go across worlds, or just the one?

[wtfox]

Just the one, I think. I've never heard of him opening a door to another world. Just from, like, one country to another.

[battling]

Fast travel like that's so useful.

[said like somebody who can't do that]

[wtfox]

I know, right? I wish everyone could do that, it would be nice.

[battling]

It's high level stuff for wizards too.

[wtfox]

I mean, I guess I can see why... even traveling normally is dangerous, so traveling such a long distance in an instant is probably dangerous in its own way.

[battling]

Could get attacked by bandits or somethin'. Could skip that if ya teleported.

If ya fly, 's a little safer. Dependin' on where you're goin'.

[wtfox]

Yeah, but then I guess if everyone could do that, the people who normally work for airports and on planes wouldn't have jobs, right...?

[battling]

[He's lost again.]

What? What're ya talkin' about?

[wtfox]

Planes. Airplanes! It's how humans in my world travel to really far away places, since we can't use magic.

[battling]

Can't use land travel?

[wtfox]

Some continents don't have land connecting them - just water. And boats would take too long.

[battling]

Your oceans have an end?

[wtfox]

...yours don't?

[battling]

It goes on forever.

[wtfox]

Huh...

[she digs into her backpack, pulls a piece of paper out of her notebook, and crumples it up into a ball.]

My world is shaped like this. There are landmasses in some parts of it... [she taps various parts of the ball to indicate what should be continents] But the rest of it is ocean. So it feels like it goes on forever, but it doesn't, really.
