[Before there was any imagine, only the sound of someone shuffling about with the device could be heard. A muffled 'Does this really work?' in a female voice followed shortly after. More unintelligible mumbling as suddenly a picture of a rather unflattering angle of a drow's face from being held waaaay too close flicked across the screen. A pair of pale white eyes widen in mixture of surprise and excitement.]

Oh! It really does work.

[There was a beat before the drow realized it wasn't just her seeing her own image, but that she was broadcasting it to everyone. There was another little small gasp as the video shifted. Being held out at the proper distance, one could see the woman squarely in the frame. Koh cleared her throat, giving a small wave with her free hand.]

Hello, sorry about that... I was testing out the functions I was told this device was capable of. I don't have anything like this where I am from so just.... familiarizing myself with it. It seems my visit here is a bit more extensive than I previously had hoped it would be. I... usually don't stay in one place for too long. I guess a formal introduction is in order.

My name is Kolnatha Shavval, but you can just all me Koh for short. In case anyone is in need of a healer, I am a cleric by trade. Which, on that note, would anyone happen to know where I can acquire medicinal herbs? Specifically ones that can aid in relieving motion sickness? [There was slight awkward pause.] I... don't exactly have my sea legs yet.

[inherlight]

Now that, I am not looking forward to. Hopefully we'll be at port if a storm hits.

Let me guess... Is this friend of yours tall with long white hair, looks like an elf, and lacks a sense of humor?

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, I kinda stick to land when it's like that.

Uh...nope. She's tall with long black hair, and I'm pretty sure she has a sense of humour.

[inherlight]

Yeah, going to stick to "land" as much as I can help it. I know eventually I will need to get back on a ship if i want to find my way home.

Then your friend is not the person I ran into. Your friend sounds much more personable.

[seasaltkeys]

That's what I did at first, but yeah, you just kinda have to get used to it! It also kinda comes with time.

[He nods.]

Yeah, Tifa's pretty cool. She helped me out a lot.

[inherlight]

I know I will have to force myself to get used to it. Boats and the sea aren't.... my favorite things. It could be worse. We could be flying.

[She chuckles nervously to herself.]

Tifa... [The drow mutters to herself, nodding. She will have to remember that name.] I hope I get a chance to meet her. What ship are you assigned to?

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, I guess so. Though...I guess I haven't found flying all that bad. Not that I've done it much.

[It was more floating with fairy dust.]

She's really cool! Uh, I know she's also got a bar, so you'll probably find her there!

I'm on the Plus Ultra Crew, with the [And he pauses for a moment to make sure he remembers it all correctly.} Mighty Explosion God Ship Bomb.

[inherlight]

Time is something we have plenty of here, it seems. I know I will have to get used to it. It could be worse... We could be flying.

[Koh gave a small shutter at the thought.]

Tifa... [She mutters to herself with a little pensive nod. A name she would have to remember.] I hope I will have the good fortune to meet her.

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, I guess so. Haven't had such a bad time doing that.

She runs the bar, Seventh Heaven! She's pretty cool!
