That made Anise giggle. “You have a name like that, and you never got to see snow yourself?” A guy named Snow living in a place that snow never touched? That was pretty funny.
The laughing stopped when the man's next question left her sitting with a blank, puzzled expression. Did he really just ask what a volcano was? “You know, a volcano,” she tried, pronouncing the word carefully in case he'd just misheard. When no flicker of understanding appeared in his expression, she realized he probably wasn't just mistaken. “... You really don't know what a volcano is?”
Was this another 'other-world' thing? Considering how other planets had trees and rivers and mountains like normal, Anise figured volcanoes had to be universal, too. Was that wrong...?
