[Video; Forward dated to June 1]

[A small boy in a battered sheepskin jacket stares solemnly at the video. He pokes at the locket, an expression of mild curiosity on his face, before starting to speak.]

Ah, hullo? Is this thing on? Quite a strange little device. Not quite like anything I remember seeing before, I think.

[Will blinks, and smiles a little foolishly.]

But then I’m getting off topic. I've only just arrived here, you see. And I thought it would be terribly rude if I didn't introduce myself.  I am Will Stanton.

I don't suppose anyone would be willing to explain a bit more of what's happening? I've heard something about a war, but it all seems terribly confusing.

[Will couldn't help but be interested in this. He had only just completed a quest for an ancient sword, himself.]

Did the sword have a name?

[knightspirit]

It was called the Dara.

[lightbranded]

And why was it important?

[knightspirit]

Couldn't say. They never said what kind of powers it has, if any. The team that retrieved it might know a little more than I do, though.

[lightbranded]

Who was that?
