[Not a video, just audio. It’s clear, however, that the person on the other end is inspecting the locket]

--hmph, thought as much. "Say a phrase and the magic will work", hm? Ridiculous. Who ever heard of speaking over distances with a locket.. Not even Legolas with all his fanciful Elven stories would have come up with something so foolish.

[More tapping and poking can be heard]

There’s nothing special about this at all. No gems, not even made of precious metals...and those creatures expect me to believe their stories? [A snort] I’d sooner believe there’s a man in Rohan afraid of horses! [He pauses, and then scoffs] Bah, listen to me, talking to myself. Legolas must be rubbing off on me more than I thought!

[Click goes the locket.]

Unfortunately for you I am not one who enjoys sparring! Too many good fighters are lost in sparring accidents. I would rather train on my own and be fighting fit for any battles.

Such a pity. Then I suppose I'll just have to find you once a battle breaks out.

[Granted, how long she'd be able to watch just to satisfy her curiosity would be hard to say. She'd be far, far too tempted to just leap into the fray and work out some pent-up aggression.]

Or you me. It would be easier that way...

[He'd just have to follow the loud booms her fists made every time they hit something. To say nothing of the noise the warhammer made.]

[Or her size.]

I suppose it might be.

[She did tend to stick out. And also make the ground rumble a bit when she walked.]

Do you have a name, stranger? Or shall I simply refer to you as "Dwarf" for the foreseeable future?

You are the only one I have come across here, after all. I see no reason it would cause confusion.

Hmph. My name is Gimli.

[tough_love]

[It probably speaks volumes about the sort of people she's used to dealing with that "Gimli" sounds like a perfectly normal name. She'd heard stranger. Like "Julie."]

And I am Looma. Princess and heir to the throne of the House of the Red Wind.

[If she ever returns home, that is. Hopefully her father was managing without her. She'd heard rumors that time ran strangely while they were all trapped here, but she wasn't sure how much faith she put in them.]

With luck, we will meet on the battlefield for more proper introductions soon enough.
