"Call me Sara," she grins. "And I worked as a forensic investigator for the Las Vegas Crime Lab. Basically, I and my team attempted to reconstruct how crimes occurred and determine who committed them. We don't have the advantage of magic on my world."
"That sounds like fun!" Iris smiles. "There aren't enough people in Xanth for there to be any crime other than stealing and such. If anyone dies it's because they wandered too close to a tangle tree." she said laughing. "But you can see what someone else did wrong?" Iris asks.

"I am sorry, Sara. I am sure you must have done your post well. It was not because you are a woman was it? I have had such discrimination brought against me." she says sympathetically.
"Oh no--had I been fired because of that, there would have been ways for me to seek retribution for such. My country is trying to move past archaic beliefs. Ecklie--the director--dismissed me because I refused to essentially be a minion of his."
