Who: Syeira and you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Not really, but Red Fish if you want
When: Today.

[She doesn't really broadcast much. And this is not a very usual thing to address everyone with, so she's just a tad awkward under the serious tone.]

Hello everyone. I'm Syeira, one of the captains of the Red Fish. I don't know all of you, and I do apologize for that. But I have something that, I imagine, will be of interest, if not concern, to many of you here. Especially in relation to our ever out of reach captors. So, ah, I suppose to the point then. About a month ago....

[She hesitates, looks away but almost immediately looks back, making herself say it. With a calm, straight face, and dry eyes.]

I died.

[All right. Said and done. Move on. Move forward to the point.]

I know that for a lot of people here, that's not exactly surprising- seeing a person perish and then be returned to life. Even on my world such things are possible; common in fact. Even long after death, if one gets a hold of strong enough magic.

However, this is a unique situation for a few reasons. Firstly, I am of a...rare and particular family tree that cannot, by any means, be revived after death. Yet, here I am.

[She lifts her hands and lets them fall. Takes a small breath and continues.]

Secondly. I have been having dreams. A dream, really. After my revival, I was extremely ill, for near to a tenday. Which this next item could have been attributed to, if it had only happened while I was feverish. However, I am quite well now, and the same dream keeps occurring. I would describe it to you, but whenever I attempt to recall the details, my memory suddenly fails.

Again, for most, it could easily be written off. A symptom of a physical trauma. And again, I am not someone who falls into the norm. I have always dreamed in a very specific and singular way. This is new.

[Her gaze trails off, her thoughts turning inward.]

New and suspiciously vague. I can tell you all, what I dream of is something dark, and with ill intent. I can't give more than that. I wish I could.

[She blinks and looks back, focusing again. But she's about finished.]

It isn't much. And I'm not sure yet how this might help us with our overarching puzzle that is Atroma, but I knew I needed to share with you all. Thank you for your time.

Oh, really? And does your magic work here? I've wondered if being in a different world would effect things like dream sharing or magic. I've yet to find out with dream sharing, since I've yet to find the materials for the PASIV or the chemicals for Somnacin.

[she shakes her head]

It depends on the type of magic I use. My main source of energy comes from nature - which becomes a problem when we are not on a planet. I can still use human magic, but that can drain a person quickly, since it uses one's own energy. So while it works, there are limitations.

[she tilts her head, curious] Does it take a lot of materials? Or chemicals?

That makes a lot of sense. The planets must be like a breath of fresh air for you.

I'm... not sure on the Somnacin. I'm not a chemist, and I'm realizing I don't know the process as well as I thought. As for the PASIV, I'm fairly confident I can rebuild it, but it will take a lot of small parts. I might even have to have someone make some pieces for me.

They certainly are. The garden over on the Iskaulit helps some, too. I feel less cut off.

I know nothing about either, so I'm afraid I can't offer any assistance.
