Chapter 2
"The king will see you now my lady," said a servant. HE opened the doors and I walked into a large room with a long rectangular table and some men, and I'm guessing Alanna, sitting by the far end. Now when Tamora Pierce described Jon she was totally incorrect when it came to handsome. He was drop-dead-omigod-I-stopped-breathing gorgeous! Numair, I'm guessing, is cuter than I espected him to be and George had the most handsome face when he smiled (Alanna was right!). Alanna was prettier than I expected her to be (Tamora Pierce was really modest when it came to her looks).
"Hello your Majesty, Sir Alanna, Master Numair, and Baron Cooper." I nodded to each one as I said their names. They seemed surprised that I knew each on of them when they've never seen me before.
"How did you know our names?" Alanna asked. "Well, in my world there are books about you, Daine, and Keladry of Mindelan, written by an author named Tamora Pierce. Her stories about you were only fantasy, though, where I come from."
"Tell us about your world," said Jonathan. IF he would have asked me to jump off a bridge I would have done it for him. "I come from the United States of America. There are no kings or royalty, its a democracy governed by the people and for the people (thank you Mr. Frohman!). In my world there is no magic, but we are more advanced than Tortall in other ways. For one thing we have indoor plumbing which I'm probably going to miss while I'm here. I know everything there is to know about Tortall though, form my books.
