first report ✘ video [ both courts ]
[ The feed comes into focus on the background, before it's picked up by the user of the locket. A stern woman -- not one seen in a long time appears in the foreground. She nods, brushes a strand of hair from her face. ]
Greetings. I can't say that the timing of my arrival here has been... kind. But seeing as I have been here for a few weeks and it looks that I will not be going anywhere again -- I have no wish to sit idly. I was a leader before, Captain of the Guard of the city I served in. Even if I am not so by name here, for this effort I thought I had best help as I can.
[ Even if she does not entirely agree with the idea of the war -- and getting involved. ]
My name is Aveline Hendyr, and I was here before. Much has seemed to have changed in the time that I was away, however.
Another thing. I offered to teach any interested parties residing in the Seelie castle defense before, to train with a sword -- or to anyone who is already knowledgeable and wishes to have someone to practice with -- that offer still stands as well, now.
[ With another nod, she switches the feed off. ]

[ how strange to use the title for a woman! but she is happier with a title to give in the first place; other hangups must be mastered later. ]

Thank you. Listen to me complaining about this when I was only present for such a short time, before. My real frustrations lie in trading one great predicament for another.
Just Aveline will be fine, if you like. I hold no title here in these lands of yet.
[ It's a difficult transition, to once again be but a soldier, but it's about what she does. Not the title. ]

[ captain or aveline? the legitimacy of either makes no difference; she merely wants to ingratiate herself. ]

Her captaincy will not matter, then. ]
And what is it that I should call you, Miss?

[ it's humiliating to have to say so -- but she's long learned not everyone understands the ease of titles as she does. although the guard captain likely will, she doesn't want to risk it. ]

[ she's used to nobles, to addressing with their proper titles (even if there were times were it was frustrating to do so - the De Launcets and their many complaints... Orleasians.
All of that aside, the girl reminds her of Bethany, in a way. Sensible, and about as soft spoken as the younger of the Hawke siblings. Well. Unless she needed to be otherwise. ]

[ She'd left for the Station when Hawke had been here. She'd go again, if one of her friends showed. ]
