[More places he doesn't recognize at all! Dang, what a surprise... While she's getting cozy on her new bed, he'll just toss his own bag onto the floor and take a seat there. Seems like he really is comfortable just Anywhere.]
Ah, I lived there! For a good few years it was just us and a radish farm, building up houses and making a nice little town of it. [TRULY IN THE BOONIES...]
These days I do a lot of traveling, though. All through Qinghe and Lanling and- oh! Even Yunmeng. Actually, that's where I was before waking up here. I'm guessing none of those ring a bell for you though, hm?
[HAHA, WELL... COMPLICATED TOPICS!! He won't dump all that baggage on a stranger though, so he just nods.]
Home is home, right? I enjoyed living there. [While it... lasted... ANYWAY-- Since this is Fantasy China he just arches a brow, no recognition on his face.]
They're in- [fuckin random country name that no one's heard of] -actually. I haven't heard of China either. Where is that?
Nope! Haven't heard of Asia either. [HE'S REALLY OUT IN THE BOONIES?!]
But no, it's the entire land. Yunmeng, Qinghe and other places like that are provinces inside of it, though! Places like Yiling and Lotus Pier are the cities inside those.
Not at all! I can't say that I don't love taking the opportunity to pull a few pranks when I can, but it would be silly to lie about something like this when there are so many bigger things happening.
[He says this, but there are some real clowns out here in these wilds...]
If I had to guess, I'd say we're dealing with some very powerful kidnappers with a very far reach.
I'm sure it seems like that. [TO NORMIES.] But everything else about this situation seems pretty fantastical too, doesn't it? I don't know about you, but I never thought I'd be waking up in front of a gilded fountain that would blind a monk.

[As she talks, she crosses into the room, taking a seat on the bed as she sets down the duffel bag.]
You said Yiling, right? Is that where you lived, or just where you were staying?

[She shakes her head.]
Sorry, no. Are those somewhere in China? I've never been, so maybe that explains it.

[Something about this seems Strange, and she tilts her head.]
But, [she repeats that random country nobody has heard of—], is that a province of some country, or...?

I'm not exactly a geography expert, but I don't think I'd forget an entire country. You aren't just messing with me, right?

How far are you thinking...?

[IT'S. IT'S VERY STRANGE.]

That's... It would explain some things, but that seems like something you'd read about in a book, not something that's actually happening.
