[After a few moments of shifting around, the locket reveals a round faced young woman with dark hair. She observes the feed with a rather amused expression, clearly still getting used to communicating by locket, before speaking.]

Well. Giant worms. What an introduction. Though perhaps as an introduction to a war, it's rather fitting. Though it got me thinking.

Has anyone been in a battle before? Like an actual proper war with battle plans and troops and all that sort of thing? Not asking for a CV, as I know we're a land divided, but just a poll to start to figure out what sorts were recruited.

I mean you'd think, even with shards and all, they'd try to get people who have a bit of experience at this sort of thing. It's not like we just stumbled in here. Because that's about as far as I've gone with war. Defending a Theme Park from robots on an alien planet and winning by a bit of my clever strategy and mostly pure luck.

[She shrugs and tosses her hair behind her back. Even if the words she used are just strange, she her tone implies that it's little more than commenting what she did last week. And it was. She figures there's little point to secrets in a place like this. She continues briskly, sounding both thoughtful and businesslike.]

Suppose faeries work in mysteries ways. Never met a fairy before. Was half convinced they were aliens too. You'd be surprised about the things that are supposed to be mythical but really just end up being alien. A few ghosts, the Loch Ness monster.

Anyway, faeries and war. Any information on that would be brilliant as I've got to get my bearings if I'm going to stay here and help out as I don't think a literature degree is going to do much for anyone. Unless the giant worms have a fondness for Dickens.

I don't think anyone had much of a battle plan for the worms.

[ that's all well and good but there's one thing that gets roxy's attention more than the rest— ]

Oh shit, you know aliens too?

I haven't ever been in battle before, and I never would want to. I'd like to find out more about the faries that brough us here myself.

...But um, you've met aliens before?

I cannot speak for you side, lady, but here on your opponents most of us have bloodied our hands on distant fields in some manner. Not all are warriors, but enough of us are. On your side, I can name at least five that I know personally to be formidable, and I do not doubt that there are others. I would be careful about broadcasting your vulnerability where all can see.

[ totes getting a hold of this communicating via locket thing. this time there's not even a close up of an eye or anything weird. he's got this. ]

Can't say I know too much about the faeries, but I know about war.

I'm a Marine.

[ Pause. ]

The Loch Ness Monster is an alien?

I been, madame. A rebellion, but we fought lotsa people an' we fought hard, huh? [ He just hopes they won. ]

I have.

[ Hermione hesitates before she offers a weak smile. It's still sort of a fresh wound. ]

A battle, I mean. I've been in one - a war, really, though it's over now.

Hello. I have had some experience with war and battle.

[And yet he sounds faintly confused. Probably trying to puzzle out the CV thing. Or the theme park thing. Or the robot thing.

So much to puzzle out, so little time.]

I will not be here much longer, but if there is anything I can do... any specific advice I can give, I would be happy to aid those whose war this is.

Wars aren't always fought on battlefields. Despite the more medieval impression of our surroundings, I believe our hosts are fully aware of that.

Lucky for you, you're talking to the daughter of war himself. If anyone knows war like the back of their hand, it's me.

[ not that she's trying to brag... but, okay, maybe she kind of is. ]

[ hi clara. it's the scarf guy. the one derek mentioned, unbeknownst to him. ]

We just have spirits back home, not fairies — but I have had to fight them, in something... kind of like what this is?

[ i mean, isn't that what a harmonic convergence is? light and dark fighting. but that's... that was korra's fight, and it didn't involve fighting... well... ok it kind of did involve fighting people sided with the "dark" but that's only because the northern water tribe was in unalaq's pocket? maybe? ugh if he and korra weren't fighting, they could probably sit down and... maybe... hash this out but. lmao they can't.

ugh all that spiritual stuff is confusing when you only know half the story and were in jail for part of the exposition given to the supporting cast ]

Well, there's nothing to say that fairies can't be aliens.

[~~Since she is one, even if she doesn't have her wings at the moment~~]

That theme park situation sounds really interesting, though. What kind of strategy were you using?

Depends on what you mean by war, but you could say I've got experience.

[There's no reason why he can't be up front about that, right? No way he's gonna give away the details about what he's fighting and why but he figures confrontation's something they all have in common right now.]

Pretty sure spooks and Nessie aren't real. So, unless you're that guy from Ancient Aliens or a Psych Ward patient lets agree to disagree. There's no such thing as conspiracies unless you're in politics.
