Can't close my eyes, I'm wide awake

[braavado]

[When Korra walks into the Spirit Portal, her immediate thought is, it shouldn't feel like this. There's an intense sort of heat that almost feels like it's burning right through her, though she can see that her skin remains unmarked. Korra barely has time to wonder what's going on before there's an odd snap of pressure that knocks her out.

(Unknown to her, a burst of light had lit up the Briggs mountains around her when she arrived, alerting anyone in the area.)

The world is white around her when she comes to, the heat from before replaced by the familiar cold of a snow storm. Korra staggers to her feet, hugging her arms around herself as she examines her new surroundings. This...definitely isn't the Spirit World. Korra knows she's going to have to find out why the portal had acted so weirdly, but first: finding out where she is is the priority.]

Hello? Is anyone around here?

[Korra calls out, not really expecting a reply.]

Another world...

[Al repeats just those two words in an awed kind of whisper. It's strange, but somehow he doesn't immediately dismiss this outright as the ramblings of someone who is ill, or confused. He's seen and read a lot of things that were supposed to be impossible, only to discover them entirely and horrifically possible. Why not other worlds too?

There were Gates of Truth in the portal, why should they only lead to and from Amestris? But if she was used to using them, it had to be a very different process. He raises a hand to his head and rubs at it in shock.]
