Entry I | Video
[The screen is black for a long moment, though the speakers seem to be working, passing along the soothing and lovely sound of someone banging their finger against a spot too near the microphone. Finally, though, the camera blooms to life, and give those watching a great look at the massive brown eye being shoved right up against the camera. A young woman’s voice is again too close to the mic]
Honestly, whoever enchanted this thing is a master artist. I can’t even detect a hint of magic around it, and yet it seems to be working just fine. I’m not sure why they made it look like a flat brick and not a proper crystal ball or mirror is beyond me.
[She sighs, pulling back slightly to reveal a young woman with slightly pointed ears and exotic features who looks anywhere between 15 and 23]
Oh wait, right, that would require someone to become a powerful archmage without going so utterly mad that they start running around creating whatever pops into their heads. [She holds it back further and shakes her head.] At least it isn’t an owlbear.
So, am I to take it there are those out there who can hear me?

The pleasure is mine - my name is Bethany Hawke. [She bows her head politely, smiling.] Will our sparkling personalities win this war for them, though?
no subject
Well met Lady Hawke, I am Reya of Candlekeep. [She nods back, the few manners her guardians instilled in her shining through] Well, that depends entirely on who they expect us to fight. I imagine if we could get close enough, we could charm them right out of their overly elaborate and thematically similar lairs.
no subject
Ah - just Bethany is fine. Still, it's good to meet you, Reya. [Grey Wardens have no need of titles. B(] A diplomatic approach sounds like a fine plan, come to think of it. I wonder if anyone's actually tried it.
no subject
Bethany then. Truth be told, I was hoping you'd say that. [Neither do Bhaalspawn] Probably not. It's usually fireball first and ask questions later. [You're describing yourself Reya]
