Green eyes shifted left to right beneath a top hat as he made his way down the street dressed in a more common fashion. Days ago, England had stood back and blinked as he'd left the fountain and had listened to the townspeople as he tried to figure out where he needed to go after that rascal gnome had taken off. It had been much like chasing that little noisy child that had followed the Tengu and his companion to the mountain that night so many years ago at Japan's house back in 1902.

Try as he might, Arthur had been unable to catch him and was at least relieved to find out Her Majesty Queen Victoria was not here as he'd first thought (and had briefly panicked over) considering the time frame he'd heard it was. It was like doing a time warp with the way some of the people were dressed. So even if he wasn't truly home there were parts that felt as if he were or at least looked the part.

For now though, he walked down the street, still looking at the tell phone that to him was outdated technology. And as he did, England did realize that things were a bit quieter here than busy modern day noise of busses, cars and trains. He was rather surprised there weren't any horses here though.

But as his eyes continued to try and remember how to work this archaic phone, he bumped into another person. At first Arthur didn't realize that his hat bad came tumbling off of his head. But then he blinked and turned to look at the person he'd collided with.

"I'm terribly sorry. Are you alright?"

If this had been a fellow nation, they would've received a much different question.

"For some it depends on what they are going back to. There is at least one here who would be going back to something worse than this place." She was certain there had to be others as well. "I suppose for some this place can be seen as a second chance to live a life they were unable to."
