[The video feed shakes slightly, before clearing to reveal a small dark-haired woman in turn-of-century garb. She lifts up the communication device and turns it about disdainfully, allowing it to show a bit of her surroundings in the Bay. At last returning to displaying herself once more. She starts out quietly, in a tone of musing to herself.]
Good heavens, these newfangled devices become odder each year.
[Her tone abruptly becomes crisp as she frowns sternly into the camera.]
Greetings. I have been made to understand that this odd device is the most efficient means of communication. I am Ms. Amelia Peabody. You may call me Amelia. I am a spinster of independent means, currently traveling for pleasure.
I had intended to embark on a voyage down the Nile today. However, if what I have been told is true, it seems that my plans have been unavoidably delayed.
I am not accustomed to my plans being unavoidably delayed.
Regardless, I am not one to waste time regretting the past. I have two questions. First, would anyone be willing to recommend a place of lodging in the city? And secondly, I wish to more fully understand the situation that has occurred. Who in this place considers themselves to be in charge? Is there an equivalent of a British Consulate?

I've been told that there is a price to open such a doorway but having been whisked away from my home, I have no wish to return or see a copy of it here.
[Crystal hums softly, her fingers lightly playing with something off the camera.]
There is a system set up for those brought here to obtain jobs and housing. There are elections every six months for the government officials who are tasked with protecting each city. There are four main cities though there is a boundary that you should be aware of.
That's everything that immediately comes to mind.
