"Legends about people wanting to ask her things and failing to get answers?"

"More like legends of her fighting armies and winning. But that too."

"Yeowch, is that the kind of power a Fate gets?"

"Older ones are even more powerful than the young ones. But yes."

"They get more powerful with age? Is that the only thing that makes a Fate more powerful?"

"We're getting back into 'rumor and supposition' territory now but having followers, people who look up to them and praise them, is also supposed to do it - but less permanently."

"Hm. Okay. Guess I'm gonna have to become a really nice god."

"Good luck with that."

"Thanks!"

"I'll thank you to clear off my ship unless you have any more burning questions, so I can make my deliveries and lock up. I'll be finding a shipyard and arranging to sell all these things and hiring temp work for most of the rest of today."

"Nah, I'm cool. Seeya."

Off he goes!

Into a maze of service corridors and freight holding bays and dockworkers' offices. A passenger terminal this ain't.

That's alright, he can probably follow sounds and smells and, especially, signs to an exit.

By smell, the trash collection rooms are more obvious than any particular sign of fresh air. Those usually need to open to somewhere, right?

Or he could follow a few people chatting about their plans for the day now that their shift's over.

There's an idea!

But instead of being creepy, he'll ask, "Excuse me?"

"Huh, what's this? You lost, sir?"

"Quite! Could you point me to the nearest exit?"

"Passenger exit? You probably want, hm... Follow us to the elevator and go to ground floor instead of the bus station, then follow signs for delivery processing, and the main concourse where I figure you probably want to be is obvious from there."

"Okay, thanks!" He starts following them and: "So do you work here?"

"Yup. White Sun United dock crew at your service. If you've ever ordered something from out-continent, chances are good we loaded or unloaded it."

"I haven't, actually! I'm from a different universe, ended up here by accident."

They pretty clearly don't believe him.

"Is that where new fair species come from?"

"Not sure, haven't met any other nonhumans yet. Probably not? Given how they apparently say they just appeared via their preferred method of reproduction, and I was very human until I was turned into a" (imperceptible pause) "van-kire in my home universe."

"Huh... Anyway, welcome to Windvale, the Lake Quarter is quite a sight if you want something to visit."

"Thanks! But I think I wanna find the Suvak Academy, first, do you know where it is?"
