There is another person who has no recollection of how she got there, nor what the metal cage seems to be. A look out of what Brienne assumes is the window shows that they are moving towards something -- at first, she suspects it's a new creation from Oldtown. But the is so unlike anything the maesters have ever come up with that she's left grasping for a reasonable explanation.
Instead of dwelling on the matter, she decides to explore. Standing, she's tentative at first; the train was not made for people her size, and the lurching movements of the contraption make her wary. As the door to the compartment begins to slide open, Brienne reaches for Oathkeeper -- fumbles briefly when it's not on her hip -- but stops when she sees a slim figure in the door, instead of one of the brothers that had kidnapped her. The brothers that had put the noose around her neck, like a bad dream.
"I apologize, my lady." She gives the other woman a nod. "I didn't mean to startle you."
