[Alec's expression is a mixture of confusion, resignation, and an attempt at politeness. It's not exactly a pleasant expression but it lightens when he smiles nervously. It's obvious that he's not comfortable with being on video or talking to a random group of strangers.]

Hello. My name's Alec Lightwood. I just arrived here and I'm trying to find out if any of my family and friends here. They'd have the last name of Lightwood, Herondale... [By the Angel, what name would Jace use?] Wayland. [There's others Jace could use but if his parabatai heard those, he'd know Alec's looking for him.] Fairchild. Also, if anyone's seen anyone who has marks like these. [Alec holds up his hand to show the black rune on the back.}

I'm also looking for someone named Magnus. If you know anything about these beings, could you contact me? Thank you.

For starters, you'll want to go to the Genessia commons. Everyone who arrives in this place gets a small place to live for a month for free and some money to cover food and clothes when they're starting out.

[There's a lot to take in, so she's going to encourage that he get the most basic things taken care of first.]

Are the runes magic? That's pretty cool.

I think the introduction thing mentioned that. [He wasn't exactly sure what it had been. It wasn't any type of technology that he was used to.] It was kind of overwhelming when I watched it.

Thanks. They're specific to my kin and our duties. [That wasn't giving out too much information... he hopes.] They're dangerous to most people.

I can fly over there to meet you and give you a short tour if you'd like. I can't promise to have all the answers to any questions you might have, but I've been here long enough to know my way around.

You can fly? [He hasn't met many beings that could do that without some kind of assistance. Maybe that's what she meant instead the wings he'd automatically imagined.] I'd appreciate a tour.

It's a martial arts technique on my world that involves harnessing chi and focusing it in a specific way to fly. It's fun and useful.

[Not to mention she can more or less ignore traffic all the time unless she has to carry something too big and awkward for flight to be practical.]

I'll be there soon. I'm Bulla, by the way. It's nice to meet you, Alec.
