Arrival/Caravan; It's not the worst swim she's had; even aside what she is, being raised on an island means Diana learned to be a strong swimmer at an early age. But usually she prefers to have the option of drying off afterwards, and changing out of wet armor. Such doesn't seem to be the case but at least her equipment had been kept dry, by whatever enchantment so handily placed it in the enchanted box while she got dumped in the lake.
Well, there are worse fates. And apparently, there's also transport away from the lake. Certainly Diana would prefer to be riding the horses, rather than inside the carriage, but that preference seems a poor hill on which to make a stand. Instead she'll quietly share a carriage with others, engaging in conversation when it's prompted but spending more time looking out the windows at the passing landscape. She's not sure what landmarks are important in this place; best to take in as much as possible, and sort it out later. As it is, she's got a lot of sorting out of what the so-called Archimedes had told them; certainly she believes in magic but even so, the entire situation seems fantastical.
Something outside the window does catch her attention β the Cliff Beast? An interesting rock formation? Something else? β and she lightly touches the person next to her on the arm. "Did you see that?"
Arrival/Red Spring; The two-to-a-room thing might not be ideal, but not liking it isn't going to change things. There's an opportunity for a shower and some sleep; both are welcome after the impromptu dip in the lake. The room's other amenities don't interest her much, not unless they'll yield information about this place.
She closes the door, looking between the two beds and her for-now roommate. "Do you have a preference?"
Bull Headed/Throwing Stones; Diana had been wandering the streets when the rock volley started; an explosion of stone and rock within her hearing, if not her sight, and the sound of screams. She'd wasted no time running toward it, shield on her arm and ready to take the impact of another rock, if necessary. The assailant seems persistent, and the volley of rocks combined with the structural damage certainly make for a hectic scene.
"Look outβ!" She'll not be shy about diving toward another person, arm braced above her to shield from falling sections of building. Whether or not the rockfall has been diverted by some form of magical intervention, she'll still check to make sure the person she's crouched next to is okay before helping them to their feet.
She's not opposed to confronting the aggressive creature, but she'll not do it at the expense of those who would be left vulnerable.
Something Else? Toss me a prompt, or PM me if you'd like to plot out something else! I default to prose (especially in starters) but if you prefer brackets, I'll happily match format. Yes, I'm deliberately ignoring the form of Diana's familiar right now, and her particular concentration of magic, until I suss out what would best suit.
