[He should not smile, and he doesn't. But Adam has missed Blue, very much, and her snapped response is so very much her that it ends up being far more comforting than anything else. It makes him want to smile, despite the monster at the door, despite the unpleasant knowledge that if she's here that means she'll be subject to all the same dangers that they have been.

Instead he just nods. Of course she knows the difference, and he knows that. It's only that he's never heard of De Chima before, and that's unsettling, especially if she's been there - with him? - for however long.

But Adam can't question it, not really. Not when he's been here, and Gansey came and left again and didn't remember anything. Not when he was somewhere else before. Maybe Blue was just - taken in a different direction. Maybe that's how it works sometimes. Maybe Adam and the others were really there, somehow. It's hard to know what's possible and what isn't, anymore.]

I've never heard of it, and I don't remember ever being there. Sorry.

[The thought that he could have been somewhere and not remember it is - well. It wouldn't be the first time, but he doesn't like it. At all.]

This is Hadriel. We don't really know much about it, except that gods live here and sometimes there are monsters. And some strange creatures must have lived here before us - just look at the buildings.

[He gestures around them, though his attention remains firmly fixed on Blue.]

You've never been here. We thought - I thought - you were safe at home. Ronan and Noah have been here since the beginning. Gansey left and then came back.
