When: Shortly after drifting (late September)

Hi everybody. My name's Sorey; I'm First Mate on the Huntress, but uh...
[He pauses. Sighs and starts over.]
A lot of people are missing. People we love. People who we don't know if they'll be back; there's a chance, definitely, a good chance, but that doesn't mean the pain and fear and the grief will go away. Sometimes, it even gets worse. The uncertainty is almost as terrible as the loss itself.
I'll be conducting memorial services in the Interfaith Center for the next week, every day at noon. Anybody is welcome to attend. It won't be anything fancy; lighting candles and burning incense, tea, reading some things from texts I've picked up along the way. If you don't want to come but you'd like me to say something for you during the service, feel free to leave it here. I'll add it to everything.
Also, if you'd like to come by just to have some quiet, or for a listening ear, I'll be here most times. There's an area where you can pray or set up altars or anything that you'd find more comfortable; we just ask that you cover up any symbols you make when you finish. If you need any help building anything, please let me know, I've got a shop area back on my ship.
Religious ties aren't necessary, either, and there's a meditation room next door if you just need some space to think. Please come by if you need anything.

[Sorey can be found puttering about the Interfaith Center on most days during the current drift. He's usually in the kitchen, sometimes with Mikleo, as well as praying at the small elemental altar in a corner of the prayer chamber, separated from the lounge area by a curtain.
Sometimes he's curled up on one of the couches in the lounge with a book or a set of hand-drawn maps, frowning as he scribbles notes and erases lines.]

Iskaulit's that ship in the middle of the smaller ones, right?
[He could definitely need a break from a lot of his troubles. Especially those caused by two certain pink-haired sisters.]

If you need someone to show you to the Center, I could meet you at the shuttle bay.
no subject
And I'll skip the escort. It's time for me to do my own exploration of this place. Any points of interest I should keep in mind?
no subject
Oh, there's also a small mountain, but even more careful there, I hear the spirit who owns it can be a little grumpy.
no subject
[Well, he did grow up on a planet suspended above another planet. Does he have room to judge?]
And a little grumpy is nothing. I've dealt with worse before now.

Sounds like that ship's pretty busy. Are there actual people on it beside those of us stuck here, or is it creepily empty like that other one?
no subject
Makes it even more important that we take care of each other, right?
no subject
And people are always going to be high on the list of priorities for me, but sometimes they cause themselves and others more grief than is wise.

I wasn't always this smart, so I guess I am.

In my experience, it's rare that people aren't worth the effort. Even if they cause grief, they can still do good for others. And, well, people that don't change tend to be the most self-centered people out there.
no subject
Please take your time looking around. Let me know if you need anything from me, okay?
no subject
Thanks for the offer, kid. I'll keep it in mind.
