[ The device must be propped against something, possibly another book like the one lying open in front of the camera, though the angle is too sharp to see what the book may be. There are three more books stacked off to the right, and a fourth is added to the stack as Dorian leans into view, closing it and placing it atop the stack. ]
I find myself in need of aid.
[ He clears his throat before continuing. ]
First, I should thank everyone for their assistance when I first arrived. You were all most helpful. For those I've yet to meet, [ He inclines his head toward the camera in greeting. ] I am Dorian of House Pavus, and I find myself in need of assistance once again.
Nothing so dramatic as my arrival, of course. I was simply wondering if anyone may have a recommendation from whence to acquire a viable and quality mage's staff, preferably of an Inferno aspect, or, more likely and more conveniently, where to acquire components with which to assemble my own. I'm well and truly capable of casting without the use of a foci, but in a pinch, speed and finesse is preferable to only finesse.
I thank you for your time in advance.

Re: Action
Aye, I've been in need of more people who know what they're about when it comes to magic. Half the dunces wanderin' this place wouldn't know the difference between a ward and a charm, apparently the highlight of magic here is flash freezin' a suburb and makin' fake fairy lights.
Action
Are you...looking to hire me, ser?
[ He rolls a shoulder is a shrug. While his words themselves are modest, his tone isn't. ]
I know something of wards and charms, yes, as well as theoretical magics.
Re: Action
[BLUNT]
Ye need a job here to live comfortably. Unless ye have one already, I'm offerin' ye a place here. Good pay for good education.
Can't say I've heard too much tell of theoretical magics currently.
[He may look disaffected but its hard to miss the tone of interest in his voice.]
Action
I...what would you have me do?
[ He pauses before smiling. ]
Actually, it isn't theoretical, as it turns out. You see, when I was merely an apprentice, my Master and I were working on time magic. Essentially bending the flow of time in one direction or another in an effort to move between different points along the line.
Re: Action
I've got Regis, but between himself and I, we're only two men and the demand gets higher every day, especially 'round the area of protection wards and charms.
Considerin' the area.
[Fucking Everglade]
Time travel then? Seems like a good way to cock a bunch of things up, mate.
Action
[ A pause. ]
Would I be provided a quiet place to work?
[ At Cassian's commentary, Dorian chuckles. ]
Oh, it does at that! Funny thing about magic, isn't it? Much like other avenues of study, ability doesn't necessitate need. Can we do it? Given the proper metaphysical leverage, yes! Should we? Most likely not.
