"Can someone explain to me how this primitive vox-caster can be programmed to call a specific person?  I'm a bit... puzzled by the lack of neural inputs."

"I was also curious about the weather patterns of this planet, and about this upcoming holiday of Valentine's

You mean the telephone, yes?

[lunawolves10th]

"That may be the local term for it. Do you know the mechanism by which it operates then?"

[wise_king]

You dial a seven digit number and a computer links you up with a specific telephone. For privacy, you must ask the person you wish to speak with for their number.

"Superb! Thank you sir."

[wise_king]

You are rather welcome.

[lunawolves10th]

"I'm in your debt, what is your name sir?"

[wise_king]

Merem Solomon.

[lunawolves10th]

"A pleasure to meet you then, Mr. Solomon."

[wise_king]

Of course. That's an interesting accent you possess though.

[lunawolves10th]

"What do you mean?"

[he does indeed have an accent. Cthonian in nature. Rather like a british accent with harder consonants.]

[wise_king]

I've been to England but that sounds nothing like any regional dialect I've heard.

[Merem himself has a mix of english and italian]

"Well, I'm not Terran, but my ancestors were."

[wise_king]

So...human. But not from Earth. Interesting.

[lunawolves10th]

"Humanity had spent much time in the stars by the time of my birth."

[wise_king]

Mind giving me the time you are from in reference to the AD time period.

"I don't know what that is, but within the time of our reckoning mankind is in the 32nd millennium."
