Tinya smiles a little sadly. "...I never really had the chance. I had dance practice, school, preparing myself to get the Caste I wanted. So I had to study stars and planets, dimensions and how to slip between them. But...I'm trying to make up for it now!"

Tinya grins gently. "It is. Have you met the cat people yet? Or been to Catfe? They're both so sweet and amazing!"

But she worries. This place has layers of strange she'd never even heard of during her studies to be a Traveler. She doesn't want this young woman to have a rude awakening. "My planet...I don't think you'd like it. Everything's industrialized and colored white so that the dirt will show. My--my foremothers used to rule, but we were overthrown five hundred years ago. We had beauty, but the Caste Council chose to replace it all."
