[The voice on network is cheerful enough, infinitely outgoing.]

Hello there! I'm planning to make an expedition into the outlands this month and do some rudimentary mapping of the area. If you'd like to join me or have been exploring the area before and would be willing to act as an experienced set of hands during the trip, I'm happy to have you along. Please just make sure to be properly equipped with survival gear and the like. Depending on how much time it takes for everyone to get their kit sorted, I'd like to head out on the 10th and return on the 13th -- Initiative missions permitting, of course.

For anyone who's been to the outlands: have you any suggestions or tips for the rest of us? I hear it's largely empty wasteland, but it never hurts to be prepared for this sort of thing.

I've been out there.

[As a... wolf. but.]

There's a lot of debris, and - you might run into some creatures. Dangerous ones.

Do you have company yet?

[gingerscoops]

There's been a few volunteers, but I think we could manage a few more without too much trouble if you were thinking about coming along - particularly since you've previous experience with the place, I for one would be more than happy to have you.

[perdre]

See, uhm - my experience might be a little bit different from what you're expecting. It could help, if you're - [okay with him being a giant wolf.] Uhm.

[gingerscoops]

Oh? [Sorry, color him a bit confused.] Well I mean, any sort of practical insight is technically more than I've got at the moment. I've done plenty of backpacking in my own world, but any experience I have is mostly theoretical here. I'm sure whatever you've got will be helpful in the long run.

[perdre]

Okay. [Right. He can do that.] I'll do my best, then.

[gingerscoops]

Fantastic! I'll send you a message once we have a departure time.

[perdre]

[With a little smile in his voice,] I'll be waiting, then.
