Oh man...

I'm using this right, I think- does this send out e-mails? I've never actually used a computer like this aside from computer games at the library...

Where's the e-mail button...? Crud...

Welcome to Demeleier. My name is North and I am a member of Demeleier's welcoming committee.

The purpose of this message is to greet you and to provide you with the necessary information to make your stay as easy as possible. You will find a helpful guide containing information regarding the circumstances of your displacement and the environment in which you've found yourself HERE. It is a highly recommended read that will enable you to better acquaint yourself with your surroundings and the general workings of the village.

Additionally, the Watch, about which you can learn more HERE, holds a meeting at Town Hall on the twenty-seventh of each month at one o'clock in the afternoon. Many topics are addressed at these meetings, which revolve around Demeleier's current affairs and concerns in all areas from safety to development to stores and trading to relationships and issues with the fae. It is open to members and residents alike and attendance is recommended as the products of these meetings influence the village as a whole. On a separate but related note, should you require wood for whatever reason, please take only from the trees in the forest marked with a leaf to preserve the agreement between the village and the Ghillie Dhu. It is also advised you retrieve a link of iron from the forge for your protection if you have not.

If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer them for you, so please don't hesitate to ask. Alternatively, you will find many residents and Watch members alike will be more than happy to answer your questions, so please don't hesitate to ask them as well.

[North turns on his video as well so that the newcomer can see him. He's a handsome young man, with a stony expression and a gash of red ribbon covering his right eye]=

Yeah. No point in saying otherwise.

You should find yourself somewhere to sleep. There's a few empty crofts, though you might want to stay at the inn for a few days or something while you get settled.

[soundstoned]

A croft... that's what those houses are called, right?

I wouldn't want to keep a big house all to myself- so I'll take a room at an inn.

[north_skie]

You can share with someone else when you settle in, so you wont be on your own. Until then, yeah, the inn is probably best.

Don't forget to keep your Rowan crown on at all times.

[soundstoned]

Rowan crown, right. Gotcha'- thanks a lot for this, North!

[north_skie]

N-no problem? [He's being thanked by a newcomer? That's... weird. usually they are too upset, scared or pissed off to say anything like a thank you.]

[soundstoned]

If you ever need any help with anything, let me know, okay? I wanna' do my part to help around here.

[north_skie]

Well, you can always join the watch. I think Souji is in charge of it since Val left so talk to him.

Er... Thanks.

[soundstoned]

The watch... alright, thanks! I'll try to find him around.
