[This has been one of the most unsettling things to Elizabeth since arriving; the absence of tears completely. Sometimes they wouldn't show up as frequently as others, but they had a penchant for appearing whenever she was stressed or anxious, and that's something she'd been in spades. So where were they? Did walking through do something? They couldn't just not be a part of this world, right? If there was an entrance then an exit must exist too.]

It's hard to explain without an example, but back where I came from, I could do this...trick, that's the best wording for it, where I would find an opening in the world and open it to another one. Sometimes if it was interesting I could bring things through, and the last time I went through myself, but here they've been completely absent.
