Hey, I'm Jay and I'm pretty new to this site, and I'm trying to make my first story.

So it's in the modern world, and a boy goes too a family funeral (in a mansion) and meets his cousin. During the funeral though, they both get bored and decide to go exploring around the mansion. 

While rummaging through some stuff in the attic, they stumble into a magical mirror that acts almost like a portal through dimensions and other worlds, and when accidently tampering with it they warp to a kind of fantasy/medieval victorian aged world full of mythical creatures and steampunk cities and the land is under the threat of the rulers of Makuria (the bad guys).

Anyways, an old man finds them and tells them he's been expecting them, that they're part of a prophecy, fills them in with whats going on and in a way mentors them for what to expect, and then they meet the prince of Anostasia (The good kingdom).

Years pass, and when the old man thinks their ready he takes them to one of the major Steampunk city ports, where they get an airship and make their way to another city to get supplies.... And thats were I'm kinda stuck.

I got most of it planned out, characters and all, but after arriving in the city I'm not really sure what to do and I was wondering if I could maybe have some help?

Thanks! -Jay

Seems like a good place for them to get introduced to the main antagonist group.
