"The train brought you to a city called Darrow with a sort of magic. There's a lot to explain," he said haltingly. He glanced around, as if someone would be waiting to whisk her away in a taxi. She didn't come as ill prepared as he had, in nothing more than a shift, but she still stood out.
"If you like, there's a cafe up the street. I can tell you what I know," he said. "But first they will have a packet for you at that booth." He pointed over to it at the other end of the platform.
