[0001]: Still Alive [Video]

[redacted_error]

[There is a series of pops and crackles from the feed, only temporary as the video flickers online. At first, there is a bright orange glow and the soft hum of some other device, however, the communicator device is jostled about a moment before resting on the face of a rather battered looking young woman. You would be too if you didn't realize a certain AI had booby-trapped a certain Stalemate Resolution Button. Her lips are pursed in a straight line as she turns the device about in her hand, her brows slightly knit in confusion.

This device is archaic in her standards--old Aperture archaic.

She looks up from the camera to examine her surroundings before speaking, hesitant, her voice not more than a hoarse whisper.]

H-hello?

[A pause as she looks up again. Maybe a noise caught her attention. She waits before looking into the camera again.]

Where this place?

[Red suddenly blots the video, followed by a somewhat annoyed grunt. Blood from a head injury, apparently. Both audio and video are cut off.]

[Heal..ers? Like...medics? Hn.] The fae? [She pauses, trying to recall any information of them, maybe from memory.] Is there a reason for it?

Probably, but they haven't told us. [ :|b ] We can protect ourselves against them with rowan and iron - there should be a circlet of rowan near you, in fact. We have iron links at the village. Has anyone offered to come get you yet?

[Rowan...iron? Errr.]

I don't recall seeing any circlet.

[Does this sound crazy? Rest assured, it's perfectly normal for Med'an. He's from Warcraft, after all. :D ]

You don't? [pause.]

It's...not on your head right now, is it? [JUST THAT HE WOULD FORGET THAT HE WAS WEARING IT, NOT THAT YOU'RE DUMB OR ANYTHING.]
