*Difficult Flexibility check you 11, stage 5 I believe, Cass 27 fail*
*You see the world as you are coming in, you see a quaint little village, thatched roofs, wearing simple flax clothing, you see a windmill in the distance, you land in a barn, Cass is next to you, not ready to hit the ground running, you see a plain woman, churning butter, she is looking at both of you in disbelief*
I'll go ahead and get out my lovely little knives from my things, as well as my katana that Jhiaxus gave me in the first world, and put them on.
Check to see if the stealth function on my chinese stealth suit works; if not, does it still have the same cover value?
The answer, I suppose, then, is that the cover value is in fact reduced?
In that case I'll be switching to the clothes I had made, the trenchcoat, hat, etc.
"We wait here, I say, and claim the woman is a witch and she summoned us and we have no desire to be here."
"If we say the technology is hers, they might. Of course, if she summoned us, what would that make us?
"We aren't going to have much choice at this rate, though. There isn't enough time to hide and hide all our stuff. We are technically supernatural beings; we could try to go for angels rather than demons."

*You see 4 men, in puritan clothes, two have pitchforks, two have flintlock muskets, two women are with them, with kitchen knives.*
*The man who is clearly the leader, in his 40's salt and pepper hair, big build*
"Stay put foul demon, these pitchforks are pure iron."
"Fear not," I tell them. "We are not demonic in nature, but human, as you. We have no fear of your iron weapons, and if you do not allow fear to coax your actions, you will have nothing to fear from us."
I see the flintlock pistols, and it immediately occurs to me that my rifle should work. Still pretty low tech, but not as low as I'd feared.
Thinking fast, I come up with a solution.
"My wife and I," I begin, motioning to her, "are demon slayers. We were in a fierce battle not ten minutes ago, but the beast, in failing health, banished us from his presence to here just before I could strike the fatal blow."

*He nods* "That's why we have the most licenced hunters in the world here, with the gateway to hell, bringing in all sorts of things, demon, undead, we'd be crazy not to."
*He gets the others to calm down*
"Once you show us your licences, we can get you setup in a place and you two can start your work."

*He takes you through the dirt streets, to what looks like a large building with a bell at the top, it is the church, and he walks you through the isles and then down a set of stairs behind a tapestry, and you see wooded shelves with piles and piles of scrolls and books, and he starts walking though the maze. This area is much larger than the church, and opens a huge book, 3 feet by 2 feet, with a spine 8 inches thick, and he starts paging through it.*
"How do you spell your last name?"

*He looks through five sections and begins to think your story is BS, and then turns to one last section, and nods.*
"You are lucky we are good on paperwork, and merge books from all over the world. Your from Japan, your family has a long line of Demon Hunters in them. With that settled, let's get you some licences."

*She looks at you*
"Really, going to steal horses from these people? I'd rather walk and take some in the wild or from someone or something attacking us. They don't look like they have much, stealing a horse is like stealing a car from them, and that's not right."
*She pauses*
"I'm good with going west, but going west would take us into Canada correct?"
"You're right, it is like stealing a car, but...
"Alright. We'll leave on foot, and if we find horses we find them; if not, we don't. I've barely ridden in my life anyway, and they're just another thing to worry about feeding.
"Yeah, hitting Canada probably wouldn't be good. So, southwest it is."
