[The screen is black, but two muffled voices can be heard. It sounds like maybe an argument is going on.]
Do you not see the giant bird right outside?!
Honey, I can't keep you from your journey forever. You have to start your adventure-
I'm saying I can't go outside because there's a giant bird- HEY! STOP PUSHING ME!
[The screen remains black, everything goes silent for a few seconds. There's an awkward "uhhhh.... hi?" before a horrible, loud bird screech in the background. There's a girl's scream, and the sound of someone breathing hard as they run. The screeching continues, until it starts to fade...
... and then the Pokegear falls out, revealing the sky. Finally, a young Colombian girl's face comes into view, but she doesn't seem to notice to Pokegear. She's bent over and out of breath.]
First, I wake up in a strange house with a woman who's NOT MY MOTHER. THEN THERE'S GIANT BIRDS-! UGHHH WHAT IS THIS PLACE?!

Good, good. [She flashes the girl a calming smile.] You'll be fine. We can speak more once you've reached safety.

Are you still there?

[The lady- honestly, she seems roughly Luisa's age- gives the screen a nod.]
Yes, I am. Are you all right?
no subject
Yeah... don't know what's happening, but I'm okay.

Good. [Her smile relaxes.] It is a lot to take in at once. To start, my name is Allura. Pleased to meet you, and welcome to the Johto region. I assure you, it's not always quite this chaotic.
[Just a little chaotic, usually.]
no subject
How um, how far am I from home?
no subject
Mirabel Madrigal, I take it? [She'll explain in a bit.] Those particular birds are new.
[Which... heavily implies that giant birds in general are typical...]
And... how familiar are you with the concept of other worlds or other dimensions?

[WELP, never let it be said that Allura was one to shy from a difficult task.]
Well, to start... this place is separate from your Encanto in terms of time and place. For whatever reason, people from different realities have been brought here over the past several years, presumably by this world's god Arceus. And whenever we're returned, it's to the same time and place we were retrieved, often with no memory of this place.
Often multiple people from the same reality are brought here, albeit not always from the same point in time. In your case... do you anyone by the name of Luisa?
[She, on the other hand, has no idea how common the Madrigal surname is in Spanish.]
