Calling Cascade

"Actually," you say, "I don't even really know enough to have questions. Except... where am I, again?"
"You're in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which is a part of the United States," Lalonde says. You're from Westminster. This is great. He seems to notice your wince, though. "Should I just give you the basic lowdown?"
"Yeah, that'd probably be... something to work from," you say.
"Well. I represent the Spring Court, the Court of Desire. We do our best to get new Changelings settled down. We make sure they have a place to live, a method of contact, and a job right out the starting gate. We have three other Courts, also based upon the seasons, that all serve other purposes. Summer is the Court of Wrath, and they handle matters of war and combat. Jake here is a member of that court, their newest, if I recall correctly. Autumn is the Court of Fear, and most often works with research and gathering of magical artifacts. And Winter is the Court of Sorrow. They keep secrets and spread information."
"Okay," you say. "What year is it?"
"2014," he says.
You haven't actually been told what year it was since 1988, but you're not exactly surprised, all things considered, so you try to take it in stride. You definitely haven't aged at the same rate as time has passed. Maybe "Super Magic Land" does that to you.
"If you don't have any more questions, Jake can get you set up with Amy. If you do, I'd be happy to answer them."
