"A difference in people," Cole explains. "Most people are human here except when they aren't."
He's downright confused when he mentions that most people are human. Coming from a fantasy setting that includes humans, elves, dwarves, and giant bull men who sound like Freddie Prinze Jr., Cole's not used to the majority of people being the same race to begin with. Likewise, there's something unfamiliar about people at the carnival, some sort of changes that seem to make everybody less human at the same time.
It's confusing.
"There's also lightbulbs," he helpfully adds. "I know what they do, but now how they do it. And I can't ask them."
