Jane was headed through the woods, attempting to track down a particular plant that Daddy wanted. She wasn't quite sure why he needed this particular specimen so badly, but it gave her an opportunity to do some of her own scouting for new subjects for her sketches. After all, she'd exhausted her resources near the camp; it felt like she'd sketched everything worth observing around the camp proper.
She'd left a note back at camp stating that she'd followed her father on his expedition today, when in reality, she was on an expedition of her own. It was all rather exciting, really, wandering about on her own, left to her own devices. It didn't happen often, which was all right with her, but when it did, she occasionally enjoyed the solitude.
Not that she was ever really alone in this place; the jungle was always teeming with life. If she'd had Tarzan's gift with languages, she could have been conversing with many of the denizens of this part of the jungle. But she didn't. So she was left to wander in silence, as far as understanding the other voices in the area was concerned.
Jane was heading in the direction of the shoreline; Daddy said the plant grew best around water, and it wasn't long before she was approaching the ocean.
Only to stop in her track, staring at what appeared to be a ship rather like the one that had brought them all here to the jungle in the first place. Jane gazed at the ship, open-mouthed. What was it doing here of all places? Ships didn't come here, not really.
While she was here, though, she could indulge her curiosity. Eyes still firmly on the ship, she didn't realize that she was about to run into another human being until she was sprawled on the sand, looking up at a beautiful young woman in an absolutely gorgeous outfit.
"Oh, my goodness, I'm terribly sorry!" Jane exclaimed, scrambling to her feet. "I was watching the ship; I wasn't looking where I was going at all."
Come with me, Edward had grinned. It shall be an adventure, he had implored. While the thoughts of an adventure certainly had piqued Nancy's interests, she had to admit that she was... hesitant to agree to go with him. After all, he was a prince, a king; trained in sword fighting and all sorts of knight-in-shining-armour, damsel-in-distress sort of things. Her idea of adventure, on the other hand, was taking the tunnels after a Red Sox game. Not exactly the same thing.
The deciding factor had been, in the end, that Nancy wasn't sure she wanted to look after the kingdom on her own. So the two had set off to the other Isles, wanting to meet other royals, to form allies and protect their little kingdom of Andalasia from the imminent arrival of Narissa.
And so, she had packed up her things, refused to bring the foolish gowns that her ladies in waiting had tried to stuff into her bags, and chose some more sensible clothing. Stil, a few gowns had found their way in, but today she was wearing a more comfortable, thinner design of her own. Something easy to move in, which she thought the layers of chiffon and lace her ladies had forced along would not provide.
It had turned out to be a good thing she chose for herself, as their first stop was a beautiful jungle. For much of the morning, Nancy had simply stood on the deck of the ship, staring out at it. It was like something out of a travel ad-- water so blue she couldn't understand it, thick, lush jungle.
Eventually she had left the ship, while Edward went off to meet whomever he was meeting. The Queen had still been trying to take everything in when a young woman ran into her.
Nancy's first reaction was to laugh, rather than panic, because before she could manage an apology, the other girl had beat her to it, "Oh-- hey, no, it's no big deal! I was... wow, I was just... a little overwhelmed!"

It had been quite some time since Jane Porter had interacted with a young woman about her own age. And it would be just her luck that the first time someone came to visit this Isle of hers, it would be the regal creature in front of her.
Despite the fact that Jane had been raised as a proper young Englishwoman should have been, Jane felt quite like a country bumpkin right now, in the presence of the other woman. She was very obviously some form of royalty, and here she was, dressed in what would probably appear to be little more than rags.
Still, she pulled a smile onto her face at the woman's reassurance that there was no harm done, stating that she'd been a little overwhelmed by everything. "Oh, I absolutely understand that; the jungle can be a bit much when you first set foot in it!" she agreed with a laugh. "Of course, if you stay here for any length of time, you'll fall in love with the jungle. Or its inhabitants," Jane smiled. "Or in my case, both." If it hadn't been for Tarzan, she still would have fallen in love with the jungle, but she probably wouldn't have stayed as readily. She was just happy that Daddy had chosen to stay with them, as well.
It was at that point that she realized she still hadn't introduced herself.
"Oh, goodness! Where are my manners?" she lamented. "I'm Jane Porter, Your Majesty, and it's lovely to meet you."
Jane looked around three-hundred times more comfortable than Nancy felt, and she was quickly growing more relaxed in her choice of outfit; had she arrived in the gowns her ladies had picked out for her, she would've looked... simply put, ridiculous.
"It's just... amazing. I mean, I came from the concrete jungle, and let me tell you, it has not earned that name." She paused, realizing that Jane likely had no idea what she was on about, so she quickly tried to recover, "That said-- I don't think my husband would be too impressed with my... falling in love with the inhabitants. At least, in the same way you did."
The introduction was rushed and flustered, and Nancy finally broke down and laughed, shaking her head, "Nice to meet you, Jane-- and please, none of that 'your majesty' stuff. I'm Nancy. Just Nancy'll do. You can save the royalty pretences for Edward. All of that makes me... a bit uncomfortable, to be honest. I'm just hoping that we'll be friends."
Friends, allies. Whatever you wanted to call it, Andalasia needed as many of them as they could manage. Nancy just had to hope that they would all be as warm and welcoming as the lovely Jane had been thus far.

A slow smile slipped onto Jane's face at the other woman's praise of her jungle home. It wasn't every day that they had visitors here in the jungle, and even more rare for the visitors they did get to truly appreciate the world with which she'd fallen in love.
While Jane had been raised as a proper English lady, she'd .... never quite been the usual young girl. She had wanted, more than anything, to help her Daddy with his research for as long as she could, and then paint the rest of the time. Oh, of course, she had intended to marry and have children and fulfill the duty that was expected of her...., but at the same time, she would have been quite pleased to simply paint.
Then, of course, Daddy had gotten his dream: to study gorillas in their natural habitat. And Jane simply couldn't have allowed her father to go all that way alone. Not to mention the fact that she was interested to see if his theories were correct. She knew enough about his research that she could be a help, more than a hindrance, and she could help by providing completely accurate drawings of whatever specimens he might need.
And while they'd been in the jungle, she'd met Tarzan. They had gotten to know one another, and they'd fallen in love. The rest, as they said, was history. Oh, there was more to it than that, but that was really what it boiled down to.
When the other woman, Nancy, said that Jane should call her by name, saving the royal titles for Edward, the man Jane assumed was Nancy's husband.
"Oh, of course!" Jane said with a smile, "It's such a pleasure to meet you, Nancy. And I do hope you won't find me incredibly rude, but you are simply beautiful. Wherever did you manage to find such a gown? And that's not even mentioning your lovely hair; how do you manage to do anything with it in this humidity?"
