[The feed cracks on with a rather tense looking woman, staring at you all.]

It seems I've arrived at the end of something major.

[Her tone is a little on the weary side, frustration seeping into her words whether she intends it or not.]

Tell me then, what exactly are we dealing with here? All explanations thus far have been a little lacking in detail. The sooner we wrap this up, the sooner I can get back to my own work.

Is everyone alright? If we're going to be stuck in this together, checking as much seems a good start.

Hector's not a pet. He's the same kind of turtle as Asti, and I'm one of... I guess his foster parents?

[alterer]

And Asti is? What, the giant we ride upon right now?

[How big is this baby if that's what it'll become. 8|]

[superoverachiever]

This... This is some place, I'll give it that.

[superoverachiever]

[alterer]

I don't plan on staying for long, though I imagine most others are the same.

[But, she appreciates the sentiment.]

Thank you though. If we're going to be trapped here, it's good to know there's at least a few who will help a stranger out.

[superoverachiever]

Yeah. I'm a helper.
