[The feed is at first filled with static and the sounds of the device being knocked around. But eventually, words start to filter through.]

[And the person seems to figure it out, so the deep, resonant voice laughs jovially]Aha, here we go! What an odd little thing indeed... I admit, it's taken me

Rider? Is that you? What in the name of--what are you doing here?

[He grins even wider] Ha, hello, Saber! I was hoping that I would not be alone here without the company of Servants. It is much more interesting to be in a place where I imagine the War doesn't matter, right?

[fated_blade]

I suppose...but it is still most troublesome.

[oikoumene]

Troublesome, perhaps, but a welcome reprieve! I would say that you worry too much, but wariness is fair here.

[fated_blade]

Have you encountered anyone else familiar?

[oikoumene]

Not at all! You are the first.

[fated_blade]

I am honored.

[/sarcasm]

[oikoumene]

[oblivious! or just disregarding. either way.] And what about you? Have you met any others?

[fated_blade]

Unfortunately, no. But what is this place?

[oikoumene]

Ahh, for that I imagine we know about the same thing. The attending woman with the letter explained that this place was called Asgard, but not much more. All this talk of gods and men being thrown around, though, that is exciting!

[fated_blade]

I suppose, but this place will not get me closer to my desire.

[oikoumene]

I doubt that it will get me any closer to mine either. Ahh, but I could always try and take this place as my own, eh? [He laughs, but... he's not joking. of course.]

[fated_blade]

Would you really? It seems this world is too limited for your vast vision.

[oikoumene]

That it may be, but it is still something! Plus, I would like to have such a strange place, honestly.

[fated_blade]

[sigh]

you are an insatiable man.

[oikoumene]

I prefer to think of it as ambitious!
