Well, just one almighty Pope who's the single most influential and powerful person in all Christendom. And the Cardinals who are the people who can become the Pope and vote in a Pope.
You could say that it's a centre of economic prosperity as well, but we haven't travelled that far from Italy.
Though we both come from England originally.
"You'd never do something as irrational as dying."Anyway, I'm Norman.
And I'm Albert. We're guards that were tasked with protecting our Home Country's cardinal...
Until he died of old age, then the Papal States decided to keep us on Guard duty for various Cardinals.
Latest one being Cardinal Sigsimund, who nearly got assassinated, we gave chase to the Assassin and ended up here.
"You'd never do something as irrational as dying."Ah, just a, er... domestic dispute. Nothing to worry about.
Yes... it does take a bit of practice. Watch. -Picks up an egg and allows it to sit on the palm of his hand. Then he slowly closes his fingers around it, barely touching it-

Well, perhaps the whims of this rooms properties may allow you journey back eventually. Time does not work as you would think here and most often, according to others, you could spend a month in here and have only a day pass in your world and vice versa.

-tries to lift an egg out again as carefully as possible-
mario is red, i am green, i try my best, but everyone's meanWell, I just hope we don't miss out on much whilst we're away.
Who knows what could happen whilst we're out the picture?
Pope gets assassinated?
New Church is formed?
No, that second one is preposterous, that won't happen for at least four hundred years with the power the Church has over Christendom.
-To Cloud- We're Norman and Albert, Guardsmen.

"You'd never do something as irrational as dying."Likewise I assume.
Wait, did you say your name was Cloud?
Yeah, he did. Apparently you might know how we can get out of here and back to our Jobs. We did kind of end up here after chasing an Assassin who nearly killed the Cardinal we were guarding.
Hmmm... For all we know he could either be lost on this dimension... place. Or he could of gotten back home without us knowing.
"You'd never do something as irrational as dying."That sort of relies on luck, to be honest. Sometimes you can get back, and sometimes you can't. Sometimes you'll even get sucked back without having to do anything at all.

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistSo the same answer we got from that Equiuis guy.
Well. -sits down, resting his Halberd- Guess we are definitely stuck here for a while. -lifts his visor up-
-sits down as well, lifting his visor up- That we are my friend. That we are.
So, what kind of dangers do people here face?
"You'd never do something as irrational as dying."

Oh right... I think it's in our best interests that we don't tell everyone that when we get back.
Might be accused of Heresy or something.
