[When the communicator turns on, the first setting that it gets turned on to is just voice. A male voice can be heard, cursing softly.]

This shouldn’t be that hard to work. If that button does—ah, there we go.

[The voice setting is turned into video, and a young man with blond hair appears on screen.]

Well, looks like this thing is finally working. I was almost getting tempted to bash it against the wall, but the technology is too good to waste. Or was it the network? [Grins.] So, from the depths of despair we emerge, possibly victorious, possibly having made things worse.

[His grin slowly fades, and he grimaces as he looks down at his clothes.] And all this good leather wasted out in the rain... I was glad those others didn't offer their robes to the rest of us. Not something very leader-like, isn't it? More like a monk of some sort.

[He turns the camera, offering a shot of the rubble.] It's been a real joy and pleasure moving rocks, but after hearing about those airships and the bombings, I'd like to know more about those. If there's a way to fly, I want it, and I'd like it now.

[:| ] What. You've never been flying!?

[Intense frowning.] What of it?

I'm shocked and angered by it, of course! You haven't truly lived if you haven't been flying, no matter the airship.

Not many people fly where I'm from, unless they've had the misfortune of being picked up by a dragon. And I like the ground just fine.

You might like the ground, but that doesn't mean you love it, correct? [Grins.] A drive-by fly from a dragon just doesn't sound like much fun.

[Linefacing so hard over here.] I love the ground. [What now?] No it usually isn't. It tends to mean that you're lunch.

Such bias, when you haven't even tried the other! [So much poking, but it's fun.]

Speaking of lunch. You wouldn't happen to know a place around here, would you?

[Don't you know what happens when you poke a bear, Balthier?] Because flying machines have really proven themselves around here as a good thing.

There are a few of these dining places, as well as a market. I have no idea of the damage they took during the bombings.

[Yeah. It then makes a good pelt.] Around here, but I doubt they're beautiful. Light, gossamer rings, beautiful designs...

[He sighs so happily.] Oh? I could use someone to show me what's left of this place.

[Or eats your face off.] Gossamer rings? [No, Belle. Don't ask questions...]

I do hope that you find someone willing to help you out with that. [:V]

[That true. He's been killed by a flower before.] Gossamer rings! They're what helps lift an airship, so to speak. Keeps it afloat.

Someone who's been here longer then I have. [Smiles.] Someone beautiful and intelligent, and who wouldn't mind giving a tour in exchange for some good food and drink.
