[ The feed opens up to a dusky and large, but mostly empty room. For anyone who may be familiar, it's the interior of a synagogue. It doesn't look like it's been maintained or that there have been services in here for months on end, as evident by the heavy amounts of dust and dirt that have settled onto everything. The windows are cracked and occasionally you can hear the distant whistling of the wind coming through and the pitter-patter of the rain against the glass. ]

Hanukkah's been over for a long time, but I wanted to come see what synagogues the city might have. This is the largest one, though from what I hear nobody comes here anymore. Occasionally it's a shelter and that's about it. [ A pause and the video switches off after not too long. ] It must have been something to see in its better days.

One of the merchants was kind enough to weld me a menorah. It's not the most fancy, but it's a good one. I don't know how the calendar here runs with holidays like that, though it wouldn't have felt right to not light one. [ Even away from home and all. ]

Anyway, I wasn't expecting anything... so for those who did, thanks for the drinks and the little snowman. It was a nice surprise. [ She'll let it slide that a couple of you somehow sneaked into the room. Besides, she becomes distracted just as she's about to disconnect. ] Huh.
