[ Solas is a touch overwhelmed by the newness of this place, this first region; there is very little that reminds him of Thedas and he's a little out of his depth, at least initially. He certainly doesn't look the part of someone comfortable with his surroundings, not with shimmering armour and what appears to be wolf pelts across his shoulders and down behind him. He moves and he walks and he takes it all in, sharp eyes drinking in a new world like he might devour a book, taking it all in, drinking it as if stopping might end with him falling out of place entirely.
He bypasses most of the people and he ignores any looks he gets - thought it seems like most people aren't too concern with having someone different in their midsts - and focusses instead on trying to work out routes and pathways, wondering what he might see if he Dreamed here, what memories would appear... If he can even reach that level in a world so different from his own.
Solas doesn't think the Fade is present, and it makes his heart burn.
Eventually, he gets to the third region and he feels... At peace. It's not home, and it's not welcome, not really, but he still feels a brush of something like familiarity. There are forests and trees that house people, and Solas tilts his head to take them all in, drinking it in for a moment and considering for a moment. What captures his attention most is how grand and handsome the trees are and people people live, content and king.
It makes him think of what the Dalish could've been, what his people could have been, grand and content and happy, and with the weight of the words of so many people on his shoulders... He falls silent, moving to sit, to watch and wonder, and question how he might find a means to go home. ]

I feel that, too. I come from a place with tech similar to this, but it's still a shock to the system. What's it like where you're from?

I wanted to know, actually, do you have many different races on Thedas? Where I come from it's just humans and omnics.
no subject
[ But at least he's not being threatened, that's something of a relief. ]
We do. The most common are elves, qunari, dwarves and humans, but there are also spirits, demons and darkspawn. I am an elf.

[he points to his own with a small chuckle.]
There's hundreds of alien races here. I don't know if any of the ones you know are aliens, but ya know.
no subject
[ But at least Lucio isn't calling him 'knife ears' or worse. ]
I'm not sure what you might consider 'alien'. There are some races that may appear odd, but that does not make them completely unknown.

That's a good point, actually. I should probably stop usin' that word... I mean, I'm alien to most of 'em! I don't want them to think I think they're super weird and unknown, right?
