video; unseelie locked.

Hello, for those of you I haven't yet met, I'm Harry.

[The video footage is of a young man with messy black hair, one bottle-green eye, and half his face silvered over with old scarring. On the damaged side, he has a red amber prosthetic in place of an eye. In the background, there's a crow that periodically peers over his shoulder.]

The queen has tasked me to talk to every one of the Unseelie and ask for a memory of solidarity, overcoming great odds, or defeating a foe. With these, she can use it to create a better, stronger defence for a rebuilt Caer Scima.

It's going to take time to do this — at the very least, a few months — so there's no hurry to meet and I've the ability to get to pretty much anywhere in the Drabwurld quickly.

[He looks down at a bit of paper that's just out of sight; seems like someone made notes before talking.]

Sharing a memory is done through magic, it doesn't hurt, I won't look at anything you don't want me to see and I'll swear to that.

How's that?

It's Wan. I can contact you with the locket later, right? How do I do that?

[thebreakingwave]

You just open it up and ask for the person you want to speak to. It'll find me. Or if that doesn't work, you can always try to find an owl and ask them to carry a message.

[No, Harry, that only works for wizards.]

[raavashing]

[He's definitely going to try it at some point.]

The owls carry messages? That's so nice of them!

[And look, he's smiling now.]

You said your name is Harry, right?

[thebreakingwave]

It is and remember, you need to pay them in mice or treats. It's only fair.

[ Owls. They're serious business. ]

[raavashing]

[Watch him tell the owl to take a letter to 'Harry' and it finds the first random bloke named Harry and drops the letter there, all satisfied with itself that it earned it's treat.]

Sure. I don't know how much better I'll be than them at catching mice, but I'm sure I can figure out a treat.
