Some time ago, I spoke to an Oracle. It said that the world would be destroyed, and then rebuilt anew. Still... it would give me peace of mind to know that my friends are well.

[ He makes a pause. He's still getting used to the bracelet, and he usually doesn't talk this much. ]

My name is Hephaestion. Is anyone, by any chance, from Greece?

[holmes_fanatic]

Sorry, Hephaestion-san! I haven't met anyone from Greece yet. I'll be sure to look though!

[greek_harp]

I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

[voice]

[holmes_fanatic]

It's no problem! After all, I think everyone wants to see someone they know about now.

[voice]

[greek_harp]

I imagine that is must be comforting.

I trust that all my friends can take care of themselves, but I can't help but be concerned.

[broduil]

[ greece, huh? he can almost hear rider's excitement from here. ]

I am not, though an acquaintance of mine is.

[greek_harp]

May I know who? Perhaps it's one of the people I'm looking for.

[broduil]

He goes by Rider, but you would likely know him as Alexander.

[ he still doesn't feel quite right just outing the other man's real name, but he did kind of proclaim it to the network already and all... ]

[greek_harp]

[ There is a moment of silence. ]

Alexander? Of Macedon?

[You can see the face of a teen with green eyes, dark skin and light purple hair. It's hard to tell if it's a man or a woman.]

I've meet the Oracle once too, the three women, they mentioned the world's destiny to me too. But I've never here of Greece before, sir. Chances are that we don't belong to the same world.

[greek_harp]

That may be the case, the only female Oracle I know is the Pythia.

permavideo for him

[aeterno_arma]

I can say I've heard of her, sir. the oes I knew were each other half the age of the other.

[greek_harp]

That sounds either very young, or very old.

voice;

[showmeanguish]

Destroyed by what?

voice;

[greek_harp]

Not by what, by who.

It's complicated.

voice;

[showmeanguish]

Good thing I'm not busy, then.

[Well, this is a surprise. Rider is taken aback to hear that name, but... the voice doesn't sound like the Hephaestion that he knew.]

Hephaestion? It is a surprise to hear that name, my friend.

[He rubs at his head, but he's still smiling.] Though, you sound quite different than I remember! I hope that my memory is not failing me so much, especially of my greatest of friends.

voice;

[greek_harp]

Alexander!

No, not at all-

[ He isn't sure whether to switch to video; he's pretty sure that he's staring and he doesn't want to be rude. ]

Is it really you?

[oikoumene]

It is indeed.

[There's a pause, because, really, what do you say to your bff after, oh, 2,000 years? Might as well just go to logistics first] Though! This is a bit of a perplexing matter! My friend, would the Grail War happen to mean anything to you?

[greek_harp]

Sorry, Alexander. I have never heard of it.
