[ 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?

[ Not being mortal means he could dedicate years and years of his to it. Even though he asked the question, Malleus hasn't answered it either. ]
A crab. [ He's quietly considering this information. ] You and other riftfarers before have been searching these waters for five years, and discovered many water-based Leviathans. Has there been any information about searching the skies? With the Flood, land Leviathans - if there were any - might have had a hard time surviving, but the gift of flight could have saved those with wings or with the ability to take to the skies.

[She lowers her voice, as if someone else might be eavesdropping in spite of the more private nature of their call. She is only sharing this information because the more people working on the rifts, the better, and if she knows who and what they know, then it works out for her—]
Though, you did not hear this from me, but I have my suspicions of an Ancient bird. Possibly horses, too.
