[Video; Filtered to Vox Machina & Gilmore]
[A small hand blocks the picture before Scanlan comes into view, adjusting the camera or phone or…whatever device-thing he’s set up. He looks healthy – new clothes, old earring, a faint scar under one eye. He backs up a few steps when he is pretty sure the device is recording. And exhales.] Hi. [Scanlan clasps an arm behind his back and teeters.] So welcome to Preya: ignore-your-problems island or home of the truly free. There aren’t really refreshments or anything, but you’ve probably figured that out by now. [A shrug, a kick to the dirt] I know I should have said hello sooner. I wasn't sure you’d want to know I was here. So… surprise! [A small salute] Not good? No, not good. I hope you’re all doing well. I only know you’re alive and safe, but that sounds like a good state to be in. I’m in Brightford at the moment -- warm weather, monster-less sewers. It’s a fun place when you’re on vacation from saving the world. I’d recommend it. [There’s a slight pause. Scanlan begins to say more, then cuts himself off.] That’s it. That’s all I’ll say. Hello. I’ll save the rest for later, if we get to it. [He reaches for the camera. The visual ends here, but audio picks up a few bars of Scanlan humming before the video ends.] |
