Who: Allen Walker
Broadcast: Video
Action: Solrius
When: 9/7

[Allen looks like he's planet-side on Solrius. He doesn't look injured, but he sure looks like this hasn't been the best of weeks. The area behind him? Looks like it just got hit by a snowstorm and a tornado, all at once.]

Hey! There's a dragon running loose on Solrius- a dangerous one, not a nice one! He's traveling with a man and they're causing damage! If you have information about either of them or their location, please tell me!

If you can fight? Please consider coming down here to protect the local villages! Don't try to take the dragon and the man on by yourself. Otherwise? I suggest traveling elsewhere!

[OOC: If you want to have an encounter with the dragon here's the log! The dragon will be defeated on the 11th. If you really want your character to be on Solrius and NOT encounter the dragon, that's fine too- it's a big planet! ]

Hey, I do too! You're a lot better than me, though. How'd you get to be so good at it?

[Belth switches it to audio only so that he can get on food preparations. He's hurrying to the kitchen to see what they have laying around for leftovers. He knows leftovers aren't going to sustain Allen, though; he'll probably want fresh food too, so he's indiscriminately pulling down spices and pots and pans as he speaks.]

Well-- [CLANG] -- I had to fend for myself, most of the time. Eventually I discovered that being a cook or an errand-runner was the best way to encounter gossip and opportunities in high society, so I studied hard.

[Well you know what, Clay's going to do that too, now that Belth's doing it. Off to the kitchen he goes!]

That's incredible! [He says it with a smile, and it's so evident in his voice.] My story's not nearly that cool. I was left alone at home a lot, so I learned how to cook so that I wouldn't be hungry by the time my aunt got home. That's pretty much it!

I-it really isn't that cool...

[He's sure if Clay knew the whole truth, he'd lose that smile immediately. That's why he doesn't mention it.]

Cooking is a useful skill to have no matter your reasons for learning it. There is something satisfying in knowing you don't have to depend on anyone else, and there is a kind of joy in providing for others.
