I gotta say, I ain't never seen a city like this before.

[After that observation, he takes a moment to adjust his hat and clear his throat.] Assuming I'm usin' this thing correctly, and assumin' likewise that any of y'all out there can hear me... The name's Elijah Morgan, the Elijah Morgan, best damn hunter of fey on either side of the Atlantic. I was en route to the States last I recall, but it seems there's been some kinda...mishap, I guess. Now, I had some important business waitin' for me back in America, so if someone would kindly show me the way outta here, that would be very much appreciated.

Secondly, ah... If anyone happens to see a big guy in a black mask and veil, maybe carryin' around a big ol' spear, that would be my partner. [A beat.] Work partner. His name's Aðalgeir and he ain't much of a talkative type, so if any of y'all would let me know where he is, that would also be very much appreciated.

[After another pause:] Geir, if you can hear this yourself, I need you to contact me pronto. I'm near this big fountain right now, but I ain't stickin' around long. [And the connection cuts out.]

[Well, you sound all right, even if the words you're saying make no sense. Interesting.]

A few people might say that's because there ain't another city like this one to be seen.

[feycarved]

Well, I've seen a fair share or two of cities in my day...

What's so special about this one?

[withloadedguns]

The way it won't let anyone leave.

For a start.

[feycarved]

You say that like it's the city itself in charge of that.

[withloadedguns]

Might be.

[feycarved]

[Great.]

Good to know, I guess.

[withloadedguns]

It's something to know.

[feycarved]

Then it's somethin' I'll keep in mind.
