[Satou is still standing in front of the holographic introduction when she switches her device on. A few things were made clear to her right away: This place has a concept of 'most powerful' and, very likely, an understanding of magic. So she shows no shame with her magic during the video.]

Good day, everyone. I'm guessing there must be a lot of people here like me, if you'd set up so many resources for us. [Her school uniform glows pink, then changes into a warm, black peacoat. The brunette taps the new necklace to her neck and creates a stylish choker for it to attach to. Her hand is shaking, but she wants to make her magic obvious.]

My name is Satou Kuroneko. I-I'm a witch. [Said as if to defend herself. She lets the camera sweep over a girlish pink staff, before continuing in as firm a voice as she can manage.] I'm not here to pick fights, so please don't start any. Um... Mikale. Shugo. Y-You're here, right? Or uh. I-I mean... H-How do I check if someone I know is here? Or, uh... um...

[Her attempt to introduce herself bravely is already faltering. Satou turns the camera back to her wand so she can wipe away her tears. Back to looking tough and calm..!]

I-I can help. My magic can be useful. I-I hope to b-be... um... nngh... What do I do...?

[The petite witch can later be found wandering the city, her wand now hidden from sight. As much as she wants to be a tough cookie who can be relied on, some might notice this kid occasionally stop to wipe her eyes and whimper into her palm.]

I'm all alone again... Mikky... Sh-Shooees... Dummieesss.

Well... I am open to meeting others. Fairies or humans. I think we sentient beings can only benefit from meeting each other, right?

Sorry. I've made you ramble for quite some time. And I still have no idea where I'm going.

[She's been walking this whole time and effectively gotten herself lost.]

[youfool]

That's the hope, eh? "All real living is meeting."

Oh, no need for apologies. As far as I know, I've free will and have it still.

[He also gets lost in rambling and wandering, so her condition is very familiar to him.]

Ahah, that's no trouble. You've still got your phone, eh? Where did you mean to go? A few button presses could steer you straight.

[priceofmagic]

I was following the way to the... common living area?

Dunno where I am right now... Oh, is that a cafe? This place has everything. [She continues wandering.] Can a few buttons really help?

[youfool]

Certainly; let's demonstrate more of technology's wonders.

[Her device will get an incoming ping for The Commons, with convenient directions and expected times of arrival from wherever she is now.]

Not that I'd interrupt your highly interesting wanderings, mind. Indeed; if there's naught else you need, I'd forfeit you to them.

[priceofmagic]

Hooooh! Thank you! That was amaaaazziiing!

I can't do that with the technology back home... Oh, hey! Where can I find a hardware store? Do you know of anything like that?

[youfool]

[He laughs at what looks to be genuine enthusiasm for one mystically inclined towards the modern. Isn't it usually the other way?]

Mhm, certainly!

[Genessia City doesn't have a player-owned one though, so she gets rerouted to something more generic. He'll also bore her with a tutorial of how to search for such things with the built-in app for all (public) spaces of business]

[priceofmagic]

Wowie zowie, that's awesome! Thank you, Ted!

Okay! I gotta get to work~! Thank you sooo much! You're the best~!

[youfool]

Aheh, then good morning, you flatterer.

[A moody one, isn't she? Ted wouldn't expect a "witch of sins" to like him at all, let alone so boisterously.

...well, so long as he avoids getting cursed, it's probably fine.]
