[Abigail sits at her harpsichord and smiles.]

Isn't this amazing? Curufin made it for me. It feels great to be able to play again. Hannibal was giving me lessons back home.

[She pauses and pushes any sadness at not having Hannibal there to listen, out of her mind.]

I think I'm pretty good. And I found something that helps me play. It's this.

[She holds this up to the camera]

I know it looks strange. It had this feeling I needed it. It took me a while to figure it out. it's a prosthetic ear. And it works. I need it because I'm missing one. I can still hear on that side, but it's muffled. With this, everything sounds more clear. So if you see me wearing it, don't get too weirded out. I cover that side of my head with my hair usually anyway.

[She steps out of view for a moment, clipping the 'ear' on while she's out of view, then comes back and sits at the harpsichord again and plays a a short piece of music. ]

It's cool, right?
