[1st orb]

[70ftandcounting]

[ It...took Rapunzel some time to figure out how to work the orb; her hands were trembling so much that she'd dropped it several times before she'd even managed to get a good look at it.

When her message comes through, her voice is shaky and her eyes are narrowed in frustration and a bit of fear. What a way to start her birthday… ]

I--I need to know where I really am, what's going on. Please. It's...it's really important that I go home right away. [ A deep breath. ]

F-Flynn? Are you here?

...

Oh my gosh, Mother really is going to kill me...

[ sdlsdjf info dump - but Rapunzel is soaking it all up like a sponge, thrilled beyond thrilled to be talking. ]

I've never seen a dolphin! What are they like?

[Selene...does that. Especially about stuff that doesn't matter.]

Hmm? Not once? They are kind of like fish, only they are really mammals. They are grey, usually, sleek, no hair. Playful. Live in the ocean? Nothing?

[ duuuurrrr what ]

Um...

Alright, c'mere. This is a dolphin, well, what one looks like anyhow.

[She leads the way into the room, pointing out a rather elaborate tapestry with a dozen emerald-and-gold dolphins all over it.]

Sort of.
