"No pocketwatches?" Amelia's obviously surprised about that one. Even Kairn, as far behind in technology as it is, has clocks of various sizes. She's even kept the one she brought from her world lovingly repaired so she'll always know what time it is back home. "I... find that hard to believe, actually."

With the shock out of the way, she'll address the rest of what he said. "Perhaps it's not so different as you might think. My world is, mostly, one large continent as well, though it's only divided into two nations. A third nation does exist, but it occupies a large group of islands south of the main continent and I'm afraid my knowledge of it is very limited. The other nations, however, are each ruled by their own king and have nobles that are loyal to them. In my country, major cities that aren't the capital, like the one I come from, are ruled over by a Duke, who has nobles under him. There's no emperor uniting all of the nations, but they get along peacefully." Or they do now, at least. But no need to delve that far into history tonight.

She pauses to take a sip of her ale. "As for magic, well... you know about that already."
