The voice told me to talk. I'm talking. Why do I need to talk-- oh. It's writing down the things I say. This would have been very helpful if I'd had it earlier.
Hello, I'm Castiel and I've been informed that there are people from this civilization who are away fighting a war. If there is any way I can be of any help to the returning troops, or to the people here, I would be glad to offer my assistance.
May your men and women return safely.
