Where are you?
<br/>On the other side of the dam, you see a large drop and a number of waterwheels. The dam itself completely blocks the river, and one end of it goes up to a town. <br/> <br/>"What are you?" the stick holder asks, and while he's no longer actively threatening you with it, he's keeping the stick in a position of readiness. <br/> <br/>"I'm... an otter," you say. You're not just that, of course, but you suspect this human isn't in any mood to hear out all the details of what you were, and are, and how you got from there to here. "Rather different from most, but... an otter." <br/> <br/>"Well, welcome to Coppertown. The most advanced town in the world" <br/> <br/>You smile at the guy with the stick. "Really? Tell me more, please—I'm only here because I didn't secure myself before I fell asleep, so I have no idea where I am!" <br/> <br/>"We are the largest and most prosperous town on the Mannenga River. All trade for hundreds of miles around passes through us! As well, we have electricity and smokeless lights for after dark. And we are not reliant on magic for them, either!" <br/> <br/>
