[ Guess who's back? Back again?? Etc., etc. ]

Hello, my fellow... cheerful... captives. After about a month of having no-bloody-idea who any of you lot are, I'm happy to report that Confusion's put me right, and so my memories have come back. Lots of gratitude there, obviously. It's an absolute nightmare to not remember how to do anything, in case you've never experienced it before.

So... yes. Memories are back, many thanks to Confusion, and I never did get to comment on our new home, did I? Listen - [ The Inquisitor shuffles a bit, the video skewing somewhat sideways. ] I've been here... over two years, and this is the first time we've had an actual sun. Comes with the whole leaving-the-caves situation, obviously, and while I'm glad for a bit of a change -

[ What was her point? Cecily pauses, then exhales roughly. ]

I've lost where I was going with that, so I'll just ask: what's edible and what isn't? More specifically, what here won't turn you into a maniac when you consume it?

You might try asking Ikaruga about meat from monsters. She lead the hunters when the city was split in two. If you are desperate... I have some spare canned goods.

[Henry pauses, then says:]

There is a matter I would speak to you of. I understand that you are an accomplished archer?

[closerift]

I'm not desperate, just curious. But, thank you.

[ Better that food go to the people who really need it. ]

I hope that I am. [ She chuckles, clicking her tongue. ] What can I do for you?

[hotspurred]

I wish to gather this city's archers and, perhaps, train new ones. I have a whole project in mind... for our defence, for hunting, for sport. But it cannot happen without fellow archers.

[closerift]

Ah. Well, I'd be happy to help with that. I can certainly try to be a suitable tutor.

[ That'll be the hardest of it, since defense and hunting are No Sweat. ]

Just direct me and I'll do what you like.

[hotspurred]

Marvellous.

Once construction of the new Clinic and Guard headquarters is finished I will be in contact.

[closerift]

D'you need any help with all that? I'm no builder, but I'm sure there's something useful that I can do.

[hotspurred]

We have completed all of the major construction, so there are but minor tasks left. Still, we welcome your assistance.

[closerift]

Of course. Happy to do it.
