[Caspian is sitting on his bed, poking and prodding at his tablet, which, unbeknownst to him, is actually on. He's frowning as he works at it, thoughts of his current surroundings occupying his mind. These accommodations are not what he is used to as a king, and he must admit, he finds them both spare and drab. Still, the shelter is adequate, and the bed seems comfortable enough, which is the most important thing. He understands enough to realize that luxury is at a minimum in this world, and he must not expect any comforts beyond the very basics.

He frowns again at the tablet in his hand. Despite instructions given, he really has no idea how this works, but he's keeping himself very busy trying to figure it out. When the screen flickers, he nearly drops it in surprise.]

Oh! I think... I think this is working now? Hello? I talk into this, and I see and hear people talking back, right?

Like... magic. [That's a disturbing thought. In his world, magic is not always to be trusted, especially magic items from origins unknown. So he'll treat this device with caution.]

I should introduce myself. I am Caspian X, King of Narnia. I must ask first: are there any other Narnians here?

[Caspian's not sure what he hopes to hear in answer to that question: he doesn't want to think of any of his people here, brought to this strange and harsh world, but selfishly, he would like to see a familiar face.]

Less magic, more technology. But you know, whatever you want to call it.

Can't say I've heard of a Narnia.

[ready_to_bloom]

Technology... I am not familiar with that.

[And how interesting! The tablet will send voices, without faces!]

Narnia is... a small kingdom. And from what I understand, few here will have heard of it.

[motherofnemesis]

Ah. [ one of the medieval people. ] Well, what you're holding is technology, and there's a lot around here. You'll run into sooner or later.

Yeah, mostly people come from different worlds. Sometimes there are people from the same place but it's not that often.

[ready_to_bloom]

I will keep my eyes open for more technology. [Of course this means he'll be looking for more tablets.


He's trying to look on the bright side of that.]Then this is a good chance for me to meet all kinds of new people, I think.

[motherofnemesis]

You'll see it around. Someone from the Initiative can give you a crash course probably.

Good way to look at it. There's plenty of interesting people around.
