001 [Video]
[So, Ruby's been here awhile but hasn't bothered to make many comments--or any posts--on the network. But she's definitely been stalking them, and learning as much as she can about Hadriel and the people in it.
So that's why she feels confident in making this post, opening with a friendly smile and broadcasting from one of the abandoned shops.]
Hi, everyone. I've met some of you here, but for those I haven't talked to yet, I'm Ruby.
[She smooths a small segment of her hair between her fingers, looking as innocent and nonthreatening as possible.]
I'm helping out with the pickling and jamming and other food preservation efforts now that we have the new orchard, but that's not really what I wanted to talk about. Something totally different, actually.
[She pauses a moment, like she's gathering up her nerve to continue.]
I've seen that a whole lot of people here have magic, or supernatural powers, or some combination of them. I know that there's a lot of reasons why you might want to be private or secretive about them--I have been--but those of you who don't mind sharing, I thought it might be useful to what each other knows. Maybe we can even figure out ways to combine our skills.
[Mostly Ruby wants to know what other people are capable of and how she can use that to her benefit but close enough, right? RIGHT?]
Some of the magic in my world is teachable, too, so I'm willing to talk to anyone who might be interested in that. I can't guarantee anything, but the more we can all take care of ourselves the safer we'll all be.

We did have alchemy in my time; I was born in the early 1300s. But I'm not an alchemist, I'm a witch.

[Though she doesn't think they'll actually be able to find out, considering different worlds surely have different ways of counting time.]
Depends. Male witches are pretty rare in general, and most just use witch nowadays. Warlock was popular a few hundred years ago though, around your time.
