[So... arriving here was a shock enough. Now... she's still struggling to absorb everything she's learned. It's so overwhelming, really. And Xion is not comfortable at all with just... putting her face and her voice and herself in general out there, but she has several questions and nobody she knows nearby to ask. So, text it is]

So we can't go home until we help the Initiate win this war? What if we've never fought in a war before? Why do they choose who they do?

I'm sorry if that's a lot of questions. I just don't understand what's going on. [Or why they picked her]

Is there any way of telling if there's anyone you know here?

[It seems like that's it, but at that moment, Xion slips in a puddle in the real world and nearly drops the tablet, fumbling with it and accidentally activating the video feed. It shows a small hooded girl, though her face is difficult to see. She seems to stare at a moment at the feed in surprise before she mutters "Sorry", and a hand clutching the bow she got when she arrived reaches up and clicks it off again]

I've fought in wars, and in single combat. They're different skills, indeed.

Until very recently, all I thought I could ever be was a fighter. Now, I see there may be other possibilities. Why not for you? I say try - even if you aren't particularly good at, say, cooking - Helm knows my skills are limited to boiling beans, making trail-bread and roasting meat - at least you've gotten the chance to learn about it.

I guess that's true.

I've never really gotten to cook anything before. Is there somewhere where you can try different things like that?

[The list of things she's never tried before is... very long. To say the least.]

I don't know. Someone on the Hold probably knows who does, though. They have a number of training sessions on many subjects, and someone here might be willing to teach if you ask - they might not have thought anyone was interested.
