[The video turns on and shows Chloe, a stunning woman with olive skin and pale blue eyes. Her hair, jet black, is tied behind her, and she looks at the camera with smug amusement. It’s probably her typical expression.]

Hello, darlings.

[There’s a notable Australian accent in her voice.]

Since it looks like I’m stuck here for awhile with the rest of you, it seems like a good idea to stock up on some supplies. It’s a dangerous world out there, you know. A girl can’t be too careful.

I could also use some maps of the area. Roads. Obstacles. That sort of thing. I imagine there might be something worth finding out there, too.

And just maybe, if you need something found, I can be the girl to get it for you. Name’s Chloe Frazer. People say I’m the resourceful type.

I'm there right now, actually. It's more modern than the rest of the Drabwurld. They say it's a neutral location.

[ Though who knows if that will last. ]

More modern? Sounds delightful.

[She thinks she'll make that her first stop, unless something promising comes along.]

I have to admit -- it's almost boring compared to everything else here. I don't think I'll stay for long, personally.

Oh? You didn't strike me as the type that's gunning for excitement.

[Ariadne might be more than she seems.]

I don't know that I'd say I'm gunning for it, exactly. But I like to know things. I can't find anything out at the Station, really -- not about this place.

It's dangerous though, isn't it?

Can you take care of yourself, cupcake?

I have a crossbow and some knives from the armory, and some magic from boons. I don't know how well I'd hold up in a battle, but I can probably get away from a bear or something.

[ She helped kill giant worms?? ]

[Chloe smiles.]

Do that. Don't risk your life. It's not worth losing it unless you're sure you can win.

Believe me, I have no interest in bear wrestling.

[ Ariadne grins back. ]

That's a relief because, I'm sorry to say, I would bet on the bear.

[boutant]

That's okay. So would I.

[desperate_times]

Thanks for the help.

I think I'll head for that station soon as I can.

I might still be there, when you come. I can show you around or something, if you want.

I'd appreciate it.
