[ the feed starts with the image of sweet-faced girl, smiling shyly as the camera starts to record. her eyes are bright with curiosity even still, and it takes a short moment before she finds confidence to speak. ]

Such a tricky device, is it not? I do not know the mechanics behind it all, but it's quite the work of craftsmanship, I think. 

[ margaery's grin grows more daring, and she falls back in tune with her usual self - confident and unyielding, brave and charming. ]

I do have to say, this is not entirely what I expected a kidnapping to be like - even prison held more restraints. I should suppose each man has their own way of doing things. Even still, you would have to wonder the wit of some people - kidnapping the Queen is a high form of treason, punishable by gruesome death. [ a dramatic hand wave. the kedan have told her all about the "in between" or whatever that meant, but the information meant little to her in this moment.  ] Though I am capable of going silently if given the option. I'm willing to forgive you of your trespasses, friend, if only granted the safe travel back to King's Landing, where I am needed.

[ needed to rule as a mother to her people. without her there's was... tommen, yes, the child king, but he was largely reliant on his mother, cersei, to make most decisions. which, if you asked margaery and she was feeling truthful, would say are the wrong decisions. the young tyrell knows her people well - unfortunately, she doesn't trust their fate in the hands of very many.]

Come then. A clever man would return me to my castle. And I need not know you to know of your cleverness, sir.

[ something of an honest smile - though, behind it is a clear threat, and obvious warning. a moment later and margaery hangs up. ]

[The person who sits in front of the console is tall, handsome, dark-haired and with a neatly trimmed beard. He's wearing a smile, and a rather old-fashioned style linen shirt - at the corner of the screen a bit of a pile of shimmering green plate armor is visible in the lovely Fire Sector suite, and he has a piece in front of him, beautifully wrought with a pair of stag's antlers worked into the golden metal. The blood has been washed off it, but there is a thin, clean cut through it, and if you really look, the man's hands are trembling, just a little.]

What a fascinating method of communication. Certainly quicker than ravens, if what I have been told is true. I- Well, I seem to have been- ah, separated, from the Lord Commander of my Rainbow Guard. I am certain he is just protecting my wife, Queen Margaery, but- I must speak with him immediately. [The words come with an easy smile and an air of confidence, but deep beneath it there's a sort of tremor of urgency - he needs to see Loras, he doesn't know what's happened, beyond what these kedan have told him, and he isn't sure he can believe it yet. And of course they know nothing of what happened at home, how the battle with Stannis went, who is alive or dead, which makes him worry - those are his men, his army, and he wasn't there-]

I would also appreciate recommendations for a skilled blacksmith who can perhaps repair my armor, this... cut in my gorget is quite unsightly. I would hate to go about looking like a hedge knight. [His statement is accompanied with a little laugh, but actually he can hardly look at it without feeling sick to his stomach, remembering- no, he doesn't want to think about it.] I assure you, I pay handsomely. Or... will, when I have access to my funds again.

[There's a noticeable pause as his hand hovers by the button to turn the video off, and he looks a little more unsure before he finally asks,] Also, I- How do you get blood stains out of wool?
