[ Bernkastel was quick to use her magic to change her attire. It is nothing but shameful for a witch to wear something so plain. Her understanding of this world is annoyingly hazy, but from the information acquired so far she at least feels confident in revealing herself on the Vine. And even admitting to her being a new arrival. ]

It seems a game board has been set and pieces pulled in. How troublesome. If there is anyone to hear me, and if you too were as unwillingly ripped from your cozy home and thrown in this place, I trust that escaping this garden is unlikely. Unless you've yet to try, which would be quite the pity.

No matter. At the very least, there is plenty to keep me alive and entertained. You. It appears we're both stuck in a troublesome scenario. Perhaps you might take a moment to convey some information to me. Spoil away; I do not mind for now.

[Jessica's recovered slightly from the horrible failure that was her first attempt. Now it's time to show the gardens she means business! With the aid of a lot of dirt and a small pile of draft paper.

tl;dr: Jessica makes a fortress )

[She stands back, observing the result with satisfaction. Once she's inspected the area, she opens up a mirror on the vine.]

I've finished the fortress I was planning. If anyone who's an actual fighter or has, y'know, experience with this stuff wants to check it out and make sure it's up to code, that'd be great. Mostly I just want people to know where it is for the next time we get overrun with things trying to kill us. Just look for the towers.

[A woman rises up in front of the Vine. With her wide blue eyes and simple white dress still on, she manages to look remarkably sweet, and demure, and delicate. The smile she shoots into the mirror is girlish and friendly. But when she reaches up to slide her hands through her hair, checking those strange antennae of hers, she's already clad in black leather gloves.]

Hello out there~

Does anyone know where I am? Where I've been taken? It's really not very nice to abduct a lady, is it? [Even IF she was on the verge of dissolving into nothingness. A pretty garden is certainly preferable.]

Someone has some explaining to do, I think. But I promise I'll listen nicely~

[The mirror unrolls to reveal the Queen sitting pensively in a small glade of flowers.]

My darlings, I've given it some thought. I've given it a lot of thought! And nowadays I think very clearly, you know. Well, I should get to the point!

Taking people's souls from all sorts of worlds and bringing them here without asking...maybe it wasn't such a nice thing to do. Even if I really wanted to make this world work. Even if I wanted...

[She trails off, frowning, then shakes her head and continues again.]

I'm going to set things straight now. If you want to go home, just tell me so! I'll cut you loose, my dears. From now on, the Gardens will only be home to those who wish--

[SMASH.]

[The mirror shatters.]

[Jessica is a bit leery of trying the mirror again just yet.]

...is everyone all right after that... exciting bit of theatrics there?
