001 | Joint Video
[ This video opens with an up close and personal view of a dark brown eye. ]
How do we know if it’s even working? I could be speaking to no one right now.
[ The eye narrows, and then the camera wheels back to show a large, dark-haired man next to a smaller, paler, and much prettier blond. The first looks, at the very least, invested in what he’s doing. The second looks like he’d rather be examining his nails. ]
My name is Damianos of Akielos. This – [ Gesturing to the blond beside him. ] – is Laurent of Vere.
These…devices show people speaking to us. Assuming that this is how you all talk to each other, we wanted to introduce ourselves. We have questions, if you can answer.
[ With a show of reluctance, Laurent draws himself up to answer the camera. ] The typical answers you give to newcomers will suffice. How are we here, why are we here, how do we leave. So on and so forth. [ He waves his hand in dismissal. ] If you need a truer list, I can continue. I am sure you've heard all of it before.
[ With a moment of thought, he adds. ] As well as where I can get in-depth information. If anyone has consolidated any information I may read or any other materials I can look through.
[ With that, he falls back to a more relaxed and bored pose. That's all he's got. He's in no mood to give more. Or even thank anyone for the effort. He leaves the rest to Damen. His requests have little to do with books. ]
Beyond that, I want to know the state of your defence. [ He’s seen monsters in caves and general mayhem. It seems unlikely there’d be no organisation at all. ] To whom do I speak about rotation of guards, weapons and drills? If there is someone in charge, direct me to them. If not, the Captain of the guard will do.
[ ooc: Damen is red and Laurent is blue. ]

What just happened
How does he write back?!
At a loss, Damen just keeps it as video. And talks to the invisible person, sending invisible letters, as if by magic. ]
Because you do not know, or because there are no answers?
This cave is full of people. That cannot be true of all of them.
texting forever :|
NO DEFENSE. NO MILITARY. NO GUARDS, WEAPONS IN ARMORY. NO DRILLS. NOBODY IN CHARGE
videos aggressively
What armoury?
[ Look, at least he’s keeping this simple. ]
Directions would be useful.
So would speaking. Are you in some distress?
NO VIDEO. ONLY TEXT
HAVE AN ARMORY HERE. HAS SIMPLE WEAPONS IF YOU NEED THEM
video all the time
You cannot speak at all?
[ ...perhaps the man is a mute. Damen will feel somewhat guilty, if that's the case. ]
okay fine, tiny video
No, he's not going to explain further unless prompted.]
ISNT DIFFICULT TO FIND ARMORY
victory video
He nods. ]
Thank you for your help.
This device is new to me. Its workings do not come so easily for all of us. [ A tiny glance flicks towards Laurent at that. It’s easy for some of us. ] I will learn.

Although the text takes almost too long so he deletes most of it. ]
Why?
