[Ah Alistair. He comes from a place where technology is non-existent. Still, he tries. Because he's so intrigued by this magical device that can apparently allow him to communicate with others.]

Hello, is this working? HELLO! Hmm.

Ah! Here it is, no wait I'm sure I can...

[And then finally after all the random button pressing, his face appears on the screen.]

Hello! Is this on? It looks like it's on. [he gives a wave, hoping he's not waving to no one and the video function is actually working as it should]

Maker, this thing is amazing. I've never seen anything like it. How does it even work?

[Anyone who gets motion sickness from a moving camera might want to stop looking as he moves the device around; flipping it to check the back; turning it upside down then turning it back the right way up. He doesn't realize and just carries on.]

Um right well, enough of that. I should introduce myself. My name is Alistair, from Ferelden. I'm a little confused about why I'm here. I was given all the details when I arrived, but I have a very important mission to take care of. I have no doubt Am- the Warden can continue without me, but there was something that I personally needed to take care of. [not that he'd made a decision about becoming King or anything] I don't suppose there's a get-out-clause where I can just pop off back home? Maybe if I agree to come back later?

No?

You ain't missing anything back home, anyway.

The thing puts you right back where it took you from. That's what people say who've gone back and forth. Sounds right, considering the whole time machine thing. They could technically put us anywhere, anytime.

[Elissa's breath catches when she hears the familiar voice over her device, fussing with it briefly to try and turn it on. She stops midway through, hesitant, waiting. Waiting for what, she isn't sure. But he doesn't seem the same. Something's different.

Wariness keeps her from a much more joyous greeting, though she does sound pleased to see him safe at the very least.]


Oh, if only it worked that way. I'm glad you're all right, though.

( Crystal offers him a wave of greeting via camera, smiling slightly. )

Hello, Alistair. I'm afraid no one's going to have good news for you, on that front.

"Ferelden huh? Never heard of the planet but I'm Jim Raynor. Near as I can tell they drop you back home right when they took you when you've finished your tour of duty in this.... Lovely place."

[OH NO YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY. PROCEEDING TO IGNORE THAT WHOLE "CONFUSED ABOUT BEING HERE" THING:]

Alistair! You came back–!

[Well this is certainly interesting.]

I'm afraid not, Your Majesty. They seem to have a fondness for you if they've brought you back a second time.

If there is, nobody's found it so far.

Try as you might, they simply won't allow you to leave. Aggravating, to say the least.

[It's been more than a week since Harry disappeared. Or, more appropriately, got sent back home to-- well, he's just back to being dead, really. No other way to put it.

But then that's also why when his voice pops up on the network, logic be damned, Chloe's quick to grab her tablet and--oh. Oh it's not. Of course it's not. Bloody ridiculous how even knowing better, there was still a split second of confusion for it.

Come on, Chloe, head on straight.

Don't worry, love, you'll make it back in time to lend your friends a hand.

This place sure does love people from your world. Enough to bring you back.
