[ The elf on the camera is bristling, cast in the blue firelight of the Fire district. His hair is oddly bright white, as are the almost-glowing lines that trail down his chin and neck, and disappear into the collar of his armor. Over one shoulder is the absolutely massive hilt of a sword, which looks comically out of proportion with him. Fenris had finally figured his device out, but it involved a lot of making a fool of himself in front of the Kedan, which he does Not Look Pleased about.

The effect of his otherwise withering glare is somewhat undermined by the fact that he opens his mouth to speak but compulsively twitches his head to the side to stare over one shoulder for a few moments, paranoid about things lurking in the shadows. He wets his lips when he finally looks back, suspicion and unease written across his pointed features before he schools them into a sneer again.

I am not a mage-- [ he practically spits the word, what a pleasant first impression he's making here ] but even I can see that this is not the Fade. In Between, they say. Bah. What nonsense.

[ In fact while he's at it let him just stare distastefully down his nose at the thing in his hands. "Technology?" Unlikely. By its strange glow and stranger capabilities, it is totally obviously something far worse!! ] This place reeks of magic all the same. And I wonder who has suffered to make it so? Magic comes with a cost. It always comes with a cost.

Whoever did this will reap what they've sown. I should like to be as far away as I can be when that day comes.


[ooc: Please don't reply with text!! Fenris is illiterate and kinda ashamed about it, so he would just skip over text replies without saying anything in order to save face.]

Charmed. [Interesting reaction, even if Tybalt's shot went wide of the mark. It doesn't particularly bother him.]

One that is too old and powerful to count our lives and presence as anything more than a passing nuisance? I doubt we trouble it that much. [He's just guessing here, but he is familiar with ancient and impossibly powerful beings.] They're not a talkative folk, at least not with us.

Unless our presence is the cause of its illness. That may be so, but I don't know enough about turtle diseases. [The ancient and powerful in his world tend to... well, they tend to vary wildly. Regardless, they tend to care more about the fae than mortals.]

So it would seem. They've been cordial, but real questions tend to be the Emperor's business, in their eyes. Eavesdropping doesn't give much more. [And yes, he does that.]

If you're already tired of it, you'll be thrilled about such variations as 'you should probably ask the Emperor that', or 'perhaps try asking the Emperor', I'm sure. [He doesn't have the highest opinions of the Kedan... but then, he doesn't have particularly high opinions of anyone on this turtle at all.]

She holds an audience every so often, but if anything useful's come out of them I haven't heard of it. [He thought about going to the last one, but he didn't feel like acknowledging her authority and appearing as a petitioner.]
