The train was easy to figure out. Hilda had taken an airship to Limsa and back before, and the train seemed to work on a similar principle. It was going to a place called the Sea of Nectar, which was as good a direction as any — Hilda’s aim was just to get her bearings in this bizarre new place she’d been spirited away to.
She’s just a little surprised when a colourful bird says hello to her as she steps off the train. She already had a run-in with a talking bear outside of the building where she had awoken, which could have ended badly if the gun she instinctively reached for hadn’t mysteriously disappeared. Well, now she knows there are talking animals around, and so far none of them meant her harm. Still, this place is bleeding confusing, and even if she’s a little proud of herself for successfully taking the train to another sea, there’s still much more that she doesn’t understand.
The first non-animal person Hilda sees is a hyuran man sitting on a bench outside the train station, casually tapping away at his... device? The rectangular thing that Hilda also found when she turned up here. It seemed important, but she didn’t trust any of that Allagan nonsense. If Allagan technology was reliable, then maybe Allag wouldn’t have fallen, right? Anyway, if it is important, then Hilda needs to understand how it works, but she’ll be damned if she actually trusts that thing.
“You seem to be mighty familiar with this thing,” she says as she walks up to the hyur and fishes her own Allagan rectangle out of her jacket pocket. “Mind showing a lass how to use it?”
