The red jeep is moving along at a good clip. The snow is
falling, thick and heavy. Maine weather is a cruel mistress, but
it’s driver is well-versed in how to handle their vehicle in
these conditions. Just a regular Tuesday, eh?
What’s not normal, though, is the way a (mountainous) human
being is suddenly standing in the middle of the road. The driver
just blinks -- one second the road is clear, the next there’s a
person standing there. They don’t walk into the road. They
literally appear, out of thin air, in a shimmering wavy
distortion of light.
“Eh?” Aubrey grunts, turning to face the oncoming traffic with
the reflexes of a dead rock. He puts his hands up in the air to
block the headlights from burning his eyeballs out of his
fucking skull, but other than that he doesn’t seem to process
what’s going on.
Thankfully, the driver veers off to the left and comes skidding
to a stop, not hitting the man.
“Thanks!” calls out the stranger in the middle of the road.
“You aight?”

"Oh shit!" I exclaim as I slam on the breaks and turn the car,
sliding the car to the side of the mountain of a man and coming
to a stop thanks only to my lightning fast reflexes and my
noobish driving luck.I sit there for a moment, catching my
breath. "Holy fuck." I say, adding to my list of curses.
I look up when I'm spoken to and just, blink for a moment. Am I
alright? I think am. "Yeah, I'm good." I say once I'm able to. I
step out of the jeep, Lann'darach in hand. In it's current form
is a beautifully carved oaken walking cane with a steel ball to
grip it. It almost looks like it was grown rather than carved.
"Are you okay? Where'd you come from? We're, at least seventy
miles from, literally anything that isn't the compound. That's
when I noticed this guy is not dressed for the cold. "Get in,
you'll freeze to death out here. My place isn't too terribly
far." I tell him and wave for him to follow. He should fit in
the passenger seat.

Aubrey looks both ways and shrugs. “No idea,” he says when he’s
asked where he came from.
He trudges through the snow leaving hulking boot-prints in his
wake, crunching his way to the jeep and climbing in. He mostly
fits. The vehicle dips a little to one side under his weight.
“Thanks,” he says again, a subtle Irish accent on his voice.
“It’s cold.”
When the jeep starts up, he looks up and down the road.
“Where am I?”
Pause.
“...or When?”

I don't even bat an eyelash at his questions. Growing up in a
community of witches and druids will do that. "You're in Maine,
and it's December Twenty Twenty-Four." I just answer as I climb
in and drive off. "Do you remember your name?" I ask, hoping he
isn't some hiker who bumped his head though I doubt that very
much... He's not dressed for hiking out there. The Irish lilt in
his voice tells me nothing. Family was from Ireland, but that
was generations ago.
"I'm Ash. Sounds like you're from Ireland. My family was from
there a few generations ago." I say with a smile. "Descended
from druids my mom used to love to tell us." It's a hundred
percent true too.

“OK. Not a time traveler, then,” he says. Which is true. He’s
not precisely a wizard, but he knew enough to know that magic
was fickle and freaky and could do all sorts of things. While he
didn’t know what paradox was, he knew what the Dreaming could
do, and it stood to reason that a random teleportation could
also be a random time travel event.
Right?
“I’m Aubrey,” he says with confidence. “Aubrey Steele.”
The entire jeep pulls to the right with him in the passenger
seat. Takes a little adjustment on Ashley’s part to drive in a
straight line.

Luckily, the compound isn't too far away. Only a couple miles,
then another mile or so down a dirt road in the forest before it
opens up into a massive clearing with a house and some out
buildings. Extremely well tended to, but still covered in snow.
I pull up to the house and park. "I can take you into town
tomorrow, if you want. Until then you can have the guest room."
I say hopping out out of the jeep. Something Aubrey might notice
is a ring with various wooden training weapons, and wooden
pells, training mannikins. He's probably seem similar training
yards before. "You can explore the grounds, just treat the
property how you'd want your property treated." I say with a
smile.

Aubrey nods. “OK.”
He stops at the Ring and the training weapons, and smiles. “Just
like home,” he says, running a hand down one of the training
swords and then making a decision.
Quick as a quick thing, he grabs one of the training swords and
offers it hilt-first to Ashley.
“You fence?”

I smile brightly and take the training sword. "I know a thing or
two." This is a Brotherhood of the Oak training ground. I train
here every single day, but I'm not tell him that. "I prefer
spears to swords, but I'm not completely inept." I say with a
laugh and step into the ring.
"Choose your weapon." There are all sorts of training weapons,
not just sword. There is even a big honkin' war sword. The kind
designed to fight multiple opponents.

Aubrey considers all the weapons, and finds himself drawn to the
big honkin’ war sword. He lingers at it, walking the length of
the weapon-wall, but eventually passes it up.
Or not. He gets to the other side of the weapon wall and finds
himself still thinking about it. So he takes it off the wall,
and holds it horribly incorrectly.
Namely, he holds it in one hand.
“OK,” he says, as if literally anyone would be able to wield
this weapon one-handed, and walks to the center of the circle.

I'm fast, extremely fast. I launch myself forward attempting to
land a blow on the massive man, but he brings up the war sword
and smacks my sword away. His strength is impressive, and it
makes me take a step in the direction I was parried to. "Not
bad." I say with a big grin. It's obvious I am for FITE like
fighting.
