[ When the video turns on, a short haired woman appears on screen. She appears in her late twenties, possibly early thirties, and is focusing very intently on the screen. In fact, her eyes seem to be focused on something apart from the screen, in front or behind it. The truly unusual thing here is that the whole image is obscured by an odd purple glow, almost like a flame. Finally her focus snaps onto the screen itself as she realizes it’s recording, and the flame disappears. A satisfied grin reaches her face, and colors come into focus: fiery red hair and vivid purple eyes. ]

There it goes! And they say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. This is different from the sort of communication I’m used to, and I’m not sure what all of these buttons are for, but it seems to be working, isn’t it? Who am I speaking to? Admiral? I never did catch your name.

In any case, where is this criminal I’m meant to be ‘redeeming’? I’d like to start right away, if you don’t mind. I believe I mentioned that there may be a war on at home? Well, come on then, where is he?

Well, that's good. Saves me the trouble of pointing it out to you.

And that makes you a lot better than half the boat.

I'm Marco. Welcome to the good ship misery. And you are?

Alanna. Nice to meet you, Marco.

So I take it you haven't had many good experiences here?

I'm an inmate. By definition, none of my experiences are 'good'.

So, you're a warden. Here to redeem some souls. Why? Why are you here?

Because I'm not too proud to ask for help when my children are at stake.

Hopefully the entirety of Pirate's Swoop. I'm here because we're under attack.

So you've basically got this town up against your equivalent of Merlin and Morgana, with a little bit of Nimue on the side? Your town's gonna be rubble, sorry about that.
