Hello, Trench! Boy, that's a fun name for a city, isn't it? Trrrrrrench. Sounds...about like what it is, I guess.
So! [He claps his hands together.] Who's here from Deerington? Man, it must've been at least a century since I saw you guys! How's it been? Oh - oh, and look! Eleanor made it too!
[He reaches off-screen to fling his arm around the neck of what, when he pulls it over in front of the camera, proves to be an enormous dappled grey Warg. Her teeth are huge. She's still wearing her enchanted leather war-armor, which really just makes the optics here worse.]
This is my dog, Eleanor! Also, I'm Michael, for all the new folks. I was in the nightmare city before this one, and then I went home for a little bit.
So - what's everyone up to? And what's with the new phones? Are we all using weird, smoky first-generation birds as phones now?

[Of course, it's the possibility they won't that's the problem. But then, once you put it that way...Michael shrugs.]
Maybe that's unfair. We all had our...moments, in Deerington. [He's certainly stopped acting like a regular, reasonable person before.]

[An uncomfortable silence followed for a moment. She was remembering a time or two that she'd lost her mind.]
I can give them room to breathe, watch them before I truly judge. I'll hope for the best with them. And if we're rewarded for that hope? Perhaps in coming years people can arrive who have no reason to fear them.
