first; video

[To be fair, computer-like devices exist on Azeroth. They're ancient consoles, remnants of a civilization that few people now living understand. Compared to this communicator, the old Titan archives are rudimentary -- enormous, clunky repositories of data that take up entire halls. Koltira has heard tales of them, but he's never accessed a Titan device in person.

Consequently, the slim electronic rectangle in his hands is a puzzle box. He presses buttons clumsily until the video starts recording, and even then, the feed is inconsistent. The whole enterprise simply illustrates his lack of technological skill.]


Were we brought here to fight a war, or to waste our time on meaningless tasks? I am not suited to the position forced on me. 'IT customer service' is a phrase I can barely parse.

[He sneers into the intermittent feed. His eyes are bright and cold, and his cracked skin has an unnatural, hypothermic cast to it.]

I will fight, as I must. I'm a soldier. But I'm not a puppet. Not anymore.

[He runs his fingers over his throat, and when he draws his hand away, it's clear that his palm is dark with blood. He's been bleeding slowly for a few days now.]

By the by. If you are skilled in the healing arts, I should like to make your acquaintance.

My name is Koltira Deathweaver.

Uh, your...

[ He motions at his face. ]

Skin. Looking a little pallid.
biotically: ("incorruptible")

Oh. I'm sorry, that was -- rude.

But are you alright?
biotically: (Hipcheck)

[personal profile] biotically 2014-09-02 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Well, no, it's not.

But I think, that probably means that you're not alright, huh? I mean, it's an alternate universe, it's not exactly the kind of thing anyone should find themselves in, but here we are, even still.
biotically: (That's a no to the mining laser)

Really?

I mean, no offense, but... what kind of place is that?
biotically: (Broody)

Oh. Well, I'm sorry. Welcome to Heropa, then. Any questions? I know this is...overwhelming.
