[ Malleus is not one to use technology much, especially phones, but he is today. ]
Good afternoon, for those who are unaware, I am Malleus Draconia. I have some inquiries for all of you.
Since my arrival, I have learned that if you had magic back home you can acquire a tattoo to use it here. Or if you had no magic, you can gain it through the same process. However, what I'm most curious to learn is if someone lost their magic before arriving in this world, would the tattoos be able to give it back to them or could they only acquire the magic found here?
[ Only two people know why Malleus is asking about this, and it's likely to stay that way. ]
As for another of my inquiries, I'm well-aware that finding this Rift-Creating Artifact is quite the monumental task and likely means the end of our journey here for many. That there is no true rhyme or reason to who comes and who leaves as of yet, but any information you may have on the Rifts and your discoveries on how they work would be greatly appreciated. I wish to invest some of my time into learning how these Rifts work or at the very most, being able to manipulate them to some extent.
[ And Malleus has a lot of time to spare. ]
For those with the ability, whether it be by ship or some other means, have you ever ventured on a different path than the leviathans? Tried traveling beyond what seem to be their destinations. Would anyone be interested in trying such a thing?
[ There's a bit of a pause where one might think Malleus has ended the feed or lost his train of thought. Either way, he obviously had a lot on his mind - a curiosity that has grown the longer he spent time here. ]
My last question is perhaps a bit more personal for those who wish to share their answer. If given the choice, would you remain here in this world or go home? Is there a reason you would prefer to stay?

[And he actually means that.]
If an expedition is organized, I shall contact you. Those seeking the relic are all of one mind, after all. Be it to return or to remain, we seek to control the commencement of the journey.
[Yes, but--]
There is but one certainty of which I would warn: your abilities must needs be granted by the mark provided. If you seek to delve into secrets the Leviathans, whose magic fuels our tattoos, would rather remain hidden, relying upon your own abilities rather than something more...substantial would be folly. They allow you to use your magic through your mark. They can just as easily take it away. If you were to journey beyond the reach of mundane travel, you may well be trapped beyond rescue. An exploratory vessel would be recommended.
And yes, it is both. Escordvi is a world of singular beauty, mystery, and wonder. I do not mind coming to call it home. I take it you have traversed the rifts but recently?

[ Time and the "luck" of this relic at the moment. ]
Interesting, I will take this information into account when planning any future expeditions into the unknown. It seems that free travel is not an easy task and this brings up even more questions that may not yet have an answer. My plans will have to be extensive for exploration.
[ With the information he's getting from Benadikta, he may need to commission a flying ship. ]
I arrived during Ghoul's Moon month, but these questions have been on my mind for some time. Before I posed them to the public, I researched what I could.

[He inclines his head.]
Well, you will find no shortage of people here willing to assist in what way they are able.
