[ It took a couple of days of exploring a treasure island, sea sailing, and finally reclaiming his proper belongings for Clive to officially have a shellphone in his possession! So while he's already adjusted to his sea legs once again (or almost), he feels as though a proper reintroduction may be in the works. ]
Hello. [ A simple voice begins as the camera shifts to a recognizable, or not-so-recognizable scarred face. He'll smile, albeit a bit sheepishly, before clearing his voice to address the feed proper. ]
I've... spent some time away, but it seems the Rifts had other plans. [ There's a sadness in his tone that is quickly shrugged off before Clive speaks again.] It is good to be back.
Should you be in need of some assistance, you need only but ask. Regardless of any brand. [ He'll turn his palm up the camera, a mixed expression pinching at the ends of his nose. Oh, what a nice welcome back present! ]
I'm feeling a bit rusty. Perhaps the MANTA would do a bit of good.

[ But... damn. He was really trying hard to not let the guilt eat him alive, even when it wasn't entirely his fault. He's fighting his own demons, a little bit at a time. ]
No, I wouldn't. Not after everything we've been through. Pulling me back almost feels like a punch to the face, but I'm grateful to have returned.
I don't intend to leave again. I mean to find a path that allows those who wish to remain to do so.
