Oh okay. that makes things ez
yeah ther real where i come from. and its less they know how to use cellphones and more it amplifys a demigods smell.

were tasty or somehting

[ventego]

That's am

[ Reconsiders saying that's amazing, backspaces, accidentally sends the text. ]

That's an issue for sure.

From what I understand of the cellphone system here, it operates on magic. Assuming your technology is similar to where I come from, this is very different.

[refantasma]

[If he had said amazing, Nico would have understood. He thought it was amazing too at first.]

hmmm well as long as my crew is strong i guess it wont be an issue.

i dont really know how the technology works im orginally from the 1940s but got stuck in a time sink. so now im in 2014 so i missed a bunch of stuff.

[ventego]

[ Time travel, huh? As strange as things get, he's glad that's not something he's had to deal with. ]

Is magic common where you're from?

Back home for me, it's complicated... but what could be called "magic" isn't known outside of a few people.

[refantasma]

its a similar sitchuashun. thers a few hundred demigods and legacies and people who can see through the mist

[ventego]

Demigods... does that mean Gods are real?

[refantasma]

yes. my Father is one of them. Hades lord of the dead.

[ventego]

[ There's a fairly sizable wait for a reply due to Okarun freaking the hell out. When it comes to the Pantheon, his knowledge is bare bones - the creatures of myth are what interest him - but the name Hades is one he recognises.

He has to remind himself that he's talking to someone he's never met, and so all of this could be absolute BS. ]

Cool.

So do I need to call you by a title?

[ This might read as a joke, but he's being entirely serious. ]

[refantasma]

[Nico answers it seriously.]

no. Im just Nico.
I do have the title of the ghost king but i was twelve when i claimed it.

[As if fourteen is much different]

[ventego]

Nico, okay.

I'm Ken, but it's probably better if you call me Okarun. It's nice to meet you, Mr. Ghost King.

[refantasma]

Okarun
okay and just Nico's fine.

[ventego]

Understood just Nico.

[ Hehehe. ]

But I think you'll probably be OK... at least with the phones here. If I hear or see anything about those creatures I can let you know, too.

[refantasma]

[Nico is totally rolling his eyes.]

thanks I appericate that.
