[Oh, video replies, Caedra hates you so. It's simpler to just write out a message and be done with it. But she also hates the limitations of the writing capabilities the tool has, and she's certainly learned in her years that many people can't resist a pretty face.

So she switches on the feed to reply, with an easy smile and a little wave.]

Nice to meet you, Seth. I'm Caedra. I've been here for a few months, so I suppose I may know a few things by now that could help you out? I can't say I pay a lot of attention to some of what happens here, but I'm happy to try to answer questions!

I do have a request, though. That 'piece' - that's a gun, isn't it? I don't know much about them. Do you think you could teach me to shoot one?

[That style of weaponry is so foreign to her and there's a certain odd elegance to it. She's curious. And it wouldn't hurt to have another skill in her arsenal, especially should her magic be stripped away further by their captors.]
