[ben is nervous, but not because he's about to share another vision, but because of what he knows is about to come. he's not entirely sure if it's all relative, but he'd been hoping it wouldn't happen so soon. the winter had been a harsh one. for a lot of people, this may be the first time they've seen, let alone spoken to, ben in a long time.

he finally speaks, his voice even but urgent. he seems to finally be ready to speak of his vision.]

It might be too late to change anythin', but I saw somethin' over the winter. It's hard to describe if you haven't seen it, but it's all important, even if it ain't gonna happen right away.

[he lets out a sigh, rubbing his temples,]

Black line in the horizon, only gettin' bigger. Far as I know, it's the Void-- that ain't news. It's comin'. There was-- there was a head, no body, and arrows hittin' the beach. There was some kinda noise there, too. Damn loud, if you ask me. Then the birds came, bigger than anythin' I've seen before, grabbin' at snakes as big as them.

[he pauses; he doesn't look thrilled at what he's about to say.]

The Shuck was eatin' the White Hart. [he licks his lips, gaze hardening,] Whatever's out there, we got to prepare ourselves.

[the feed ends.]

Wouldn't trust everythin' they've told you. We don't know a damn thing about what really happens.

[and he'd be an idiot to think that there wasn't at least a small chance that it's in fact true, but there's still a lot they don't know about the drabwurld. the monarchs could be lying to give the people here more incentive to fight.]

Oh, I know. Of course records and the stories in each Court would be biased. And might leave out certain details. We're not necessarily getting the full story. I understand that. I'm not sure what would happen if this world....if we were to all die, what might happen to our homes. That's what I imagine worries most if not all of us. Those back home that we're supposed to be fighting for.

[It's all really rather sudden, this tension. This lingering unease from all of these revelations. Smothering. She purses her lips, worrying them for a moment.]

Oh, I'm Snow, by the way.

Maybe dyin' is one way to get us outta here. You know anybody who's died here?

[he hasn't exactly kept track of who's come and gone besides the people that he's known, and his connections, in terms of really caring, are sparse. he never notices the absence of someone he's only seen around the lockets.]

Ben.

I don't think so. No. But if we die, the shards....I was told dying removes them. We're no longer bound to the Courts, but I'm not sure what that means for our home exactly. I'm not sure if I'd risk it and there's no way to confirm if that were the case, obviously.

[If anyone, Lancelot might be able to explain more on that if possible. But it still worries her. All of this. The implications in what Ben is saying.]

Ben then. Nice to meet you. If--under the circumstances.
