001. [Video/Action for New Bark Town]
[Hello hello! This morning is looking to be a chilly one, if the view of New Bark Town over this particular feed is any indication; the ground is covered in a crisp blanket of white, the scenery is undisturbed, and the...uh, well, the feed is suddenly winging upward to shoot you a lovely and vaguely motion-sickness-inducing view of the sky. There's

[After another moment of ensuring he looks his best (it's the Fuhrer's son, of course appearance matters! He wouldn't want to be forgettable, now would he?), Archer finally turns on the 'Gear.]
I suppose you could say you were kidnapped; but this is hardly the sort of situation that you're describing.

I'm afraid I don't know. I doubt anyone knows how we arrived here; it seems to be the sort of question that's better left unanswered. You'll find there are quite a few of those in this world.

[Archer nods promptly at that last question; it makes sense that Selim would know the military rankings - hell, Archer knew all of them by age ten, at least.]

[...He's... not entirely sure what to call Selim. Does he go by first name? Last name? Sir? He has absolutely no idea what the proper etiquette for this situation is...]
