Voice;
Some time ago, I posited the idea of building a ship. While it was met with derision by some -- [You know who you are.] -- recent events have convinced me that there is no other reasonable course of action.
We are entering a time of ease now, and I feel very strongly that we must act before the next catastrophe arises. While we have the opportunity and the materials, we can construct a proper ship. This will give us the freedom to explore beyond the turtle's shell, and give us a means of escape, should it sicken again.
I believe there is enough wood from the homes destroyed when the satellite fell to salvage and build a modest ship. It will not hold all of us, but it is a fine start. With more mobility, I believe we can find the materials we need to make a proper go of it.
For those who question my qualifications, I am an Admiral of his Majesty's navy, formerly in the employ of the East India Trading Company. I have more than the proper qualifications to oversee the construction and voyages of such a vessel.

Re: video:
I certainly will. Any contribution you could see clear to making would of course, be welcome.
[He will see your tone, and match you with obvious cynicism that Lex actually will contribute in a meaningful way. But maybe he's wrong. After all, the man did use the proper form of address, so he's not entirely hopeless.
(Small victories. If Lex knew what he'd gone through with les Amis, he would not be shocked that James kept harping on the "Admiral" thing.)]

Rest assured we'll keep in touch, Admiral. [The feed clicks off, and that's enough of that.]
