[To be honest, he would have preferred text, but this is a perfect opportunity to test out the console. The keyboard is self-explanatory. The video function isn't. One of the kedan had offered to show Skulduggery how it worked, but he’d politely declined. He didn’t particularly feel like being saddled with a guide for the entirety of his time here.]

Ah, there we go. Excellent.

[This does, of course, mean that he can now be seen. He was a little concerned about that when all of this was first being explained to him, but then he saw someone walking around in the city with blue skin and two heads. He’s rather less concerned now.

... He doesn't really have anything to ask, though, now that he’s thinking about it.]

Thank you. Carry on.

[Yes, that was a skull talking just then, Irish accent and moving jaw and all. Why do you ask?]

[Ah. Someone else from outer space. Human, though, so probably not from the same universe Amelia is, even if the laws of probability practically barred that from happening anyway.]

I take it we occasionally dock on a continent, a different one each time. How much of those have been explored?

[Kyle hmms.]

We don't stay for long - we've stopped at four places so far. Either the place is closed off from the outside or it's a ruined civilisation with nobody there. This isn't a dead world, but it's a dying one.

I see.

[No doubt the work of Malicant - or at least what the kedan and the Emperor want them to believe is Malicant. Either way, Skulduggery definitely plans on exploring as far as he can the next time it happens.]

Maybe someone will discover a spaceship somewhere. [Muttered, and pobably a joke, but it's always so hard to tell when you can't see a person's face.]

[imaginate]

[Whether Skulduggery means it as one or not, Kyle chuckles anyway.]

I'm not holding my breath.

You can get more intel by reading the rest of the network. There's a lot, but it's worth it.
