[The tatooed face that has appeared on the device seems to be a strange mixture of decidedly uncomfortable and surprised. She's feeling a little claustrophobic and sick, but she has managed to wrestle the tablet into doing something other than reflecting her own face back at her--a particularly delicate face with large almond-shaped eyes and finely

The tablets haven't blown up in our faces. [Pause, considering.] Yet, at any rate.

[Video]

[avaerieal]

O-oh my!

[This thing is confusing. It must be magical!]

Yet? Wait...who are you? How did you get in there? [Two seconds while she turns it over a few times.] How do you fit?

[aint_comin_back]

I ain't in the thing, darlin'. Using it to talk to you.

[Video]

[avaerieal]

Oh. How does that work?

[Video]

[leaporfall]

It's not dangerous, as far as any of us can tell. And it can't talk to you on its own, fortunately.

[Video]

[avaerieal]

...it can't? Then what are you doing in it?

[Video]

[leaporfall]

[She looks torn between sympathy and chagrin.]

I'm not in it. It's...it's a little like a scrying mirror, in a way, though it's not really magic. It lets you communicate with others at a distance. So when you turned it on to talk to it, you actually started talking to us.

[avaerieal]

O-oh. That makes more sense.

[Po has, at least, by now, learned that talking pandas are not very usual (to say the least), and has therefore learned to function primarily on voice.]

The little thing is called a tablet. I believe the oarsman was a man creature as well, though he's not very helpful to any of us.

[Voice]

[avaerieal]

A...a tablet?

[Voice]

[savedbyradishes]

That is what it is called...apparently some form of...teknahology from the future? It is still quite foreign to me, I must confess.

[Voice]

[avaerieal]

That...well, it doesn't make any sense.

I'm not very sure that caves get along with anyone.

I take that back. I'm not very sure caves get along with anyone who isn't native to Orzammar.

[avaerieal]

What's..."Orzammar?"

[endtheblight]

A city from my home-world, it's underground. A lot nicer than this place, actually.

You're new, I take it?

[avaerieal]

Yes, I am.

It's not dangerous at all, it's actually a communication device of sorts.

[avaerieal]

So I hear, but...I'm afraid I don't understand it at all.

[familyshares]

I take it you don't have things like this where you're from?

Video;

[avaerieal]

No...I've never seen anything like this before.
