Giselle and Yuna both found portals at their own destinations.  The half Drow found hers on the edge of the Silver Marshes, just north of the border from Mithral Hall.  Whoever had set this up had wanted to be sure that the road wouldn't be found by accident considering it was in the middle of nowhere, away from any of the main roads and trade routes.  The portal was in the air just an inch above the ground, and it looked like a pool of water that somehow defied gravity.  "Ok, this is out of my league a bit."  She was about to say more when the bladed weapon that had found her after the troll attack flew off on its own, heading through on its own volition.  "Well, that answers my question."  Without a moment's hesitation, Giselle Do'Urden, daughter of Drizzt Do'Urden, stepped through the portal and almost regretted it when her world was spun upside down, on its side, and five other directions at once before being spit out in another world completely.  Groaning as she fell at a woman's feet face first as well, a woman with black skin almost as dark as her own, the half Drow immediately rolled to her feet and looked the girl in the eyes, asking her a question in elven without even thinking about it.  To Emma's ears, it would sound quite beautiful but altogether untelligable...at least at first.<br/><br/>"What and who are you and where in the Nine Hells am I?  Are you Drow, some kind of demon, or what?"  Her hands hovered above her blades' hilts that weer strapped to her seductively shaped hips.  Her chest was covered in black mithril chainmail that moved like a second skin to the seasoned warrior as she stared at the deadly claws this...thing possessed, unsure of what to call her.  Realizing her mistake and having her heart calm down a bit, Giselle chanted in elven for a moment until a light flourished around the woman and the next time Giselle spoke, she was understood.  "Sorry bout that.  My name is Giselle Do'Urden, and I can see that you are not a member of my dark sknned race, the Drow or dark elf if you prefer.  Still, I am curious as to what you are since I have never seen anything quite like you."  Holding out her hand though it was a bit awkward considering the claws, Giselle offered a warm smile as she looked the girl in the eyes, her own brown ones lighting up until another woman appeared out of the same wormhole....<br/><br/>Yuna groaned as she fell out of the hole that had been hanging over a cliff in the rocky terrain that marked Mushroom Rock Road for what it was, a pass through rock and stone that laid beside the great sea.  Standing up and gasping at the sight of two of the strangest people she had ever seen, the former summoner looked to Emma to Giselle and back again.  "I'm sorry, but where am I and who are you two?  I received this strange machina bladed weapon that flew away when I approached the....gateway.  You must be here for the Tournament as well.  My name is Yuna.  I am High Summoner Braska's daughter."  When she got nothing but a dull and dumbfounded look for her trouble, Yuna blushed a bit as Giselle shook the lady's hand all the same.  There was strength in that hand....just like his.  No, he was alive, she knew it in her heart and mind, just as Giselle knew her own father was alive.  "So, do you two know what's going on and why we were summoned here?"
