Video?; Both Courts

[seeksconviction]

Hello?

[The video feed is pitch black with Jude's face barely visible on it, mainly, because it's the middle of the night and Jude had the unfortunate luck to arrive outside of Caer Glaem, several miles away in the meadows surrounding the stronghold. The explanation he'd gotten from the fairies was brief at best, confusing at worst, and he's already walking towards the nearest looking settlement-- the castle.]

Am I using this correctly....? It's too dark to see much...

[Jude's lucky he has good reflexes-- he trips and the video feed jolts, but he quickly corrects himself with a small noise of surprise, grip tightening on the locket in his palm. He speaks again after wrapping the chain attached to the locket around his wrist, frowning a little.]

...Could anyone explain where I am? I think I see a castle in the distance, but it's so dark out I can't read the map they gave me.

[...okay, he can't help but be kind of amused by that, even if he manages to push most of it out of his expression for the sake of politeness.]

Perhaps you ought to try and make it to the castle and see where you're at in the morning? Then again, that may not be the wisest idea, depending on whether it's where you're supposed to be or not...

That's part of why I asked. [He had been heading in the direction of the castle anyway, but knowing he wouldn't get barred from entry was pretty helpful.]

I wouldn't want to walk into someplace I'm not welcome, but I need to go somewhere.

Yes, that would be awkward at best and possibly lethal at worst. I really had no idea you could just get dumped in the middle of the woods instead of in the general vicinity of where you're supposed to be, though. That's... really rather unfortunate. You were at least told where to go, I hope?
