01. Video.

[The video flickers on and it's being held awkwardly close to the user. Viewers will see a very close up view of his eyes, and a bit of his nose, but nothing else.]

I'm not sure what fresh Hell I've landed in, but I was instructed to use this to communicate. To compound matters, I'm not sure with whom I'm supposed to be communicating with, but if anyone is receiving this, a reply would be greatly appreciated.

Oh? Why is that?

[She likes it because there is magic in Fayren.]

I'd love to see it after you've settled in.

[She won't ask him now since he just arrived.]

[He nods]

I would be glad to give you a demonstration when things are a bit less hectic.

[skilledwithwords]

It's a deal then!

[She smiles with a little wink.]
