(Num voice): Skill issue.

Num puts a hand on his hip defiantly.
NUM: Maybe people haven't been trying to get out hard enough.
LANI: Excuse me?
LANI: HA! Please. If people could get through it on foot, they'd have done it by now. Maybe this place would be less of a hellhole, then.
Num glares up at Lani while Ísja looks a bit worried.
NUM: Well–
ÍSJA: You're right. We're not from Noarata.
Num looks at Ísja as he continues to speak.
ÍSJA: We used a Pocket to get here.
He pauses to think, then continues. Lani's irritation has faded.
ÍSJA: Do you know what a Pocket is?
ÍSJA: It's this big, glowy portal thing that connects the planes together.
He spreads his arms out for emphasis with a big smile on his face. There's a small diagram featuring a piece of land with Lani's face on it and a piece of land with Ísja and Num's faces on it. Arrows are connecting both of them to a blank place that looks grassy.
Lani pinches the bridge of her nose.
LANI: The planes?
ÍSJA: You know! Kinda like countries.
He puts his hand to his chin pensively and looks away.
ÍSJA: Or continents?
He clasps his hands together, still not making eye contact.
ÍSJA: But not really. It's hard to explain.
Lani stares at the boys. The boys stare back.
NARRATION, ECHOING: A portal... and planes...
Lani scoffs.
LANI: Do you think I'm stupid?
(Num voice): Skill issue.
