...Oh. There.
[As with her last broadcast, Aquenda has to back up from the camera before she's satisfied with how she looks on the monitor. At least it was a lot faster to get the feed going this time...]
Ah, er, yes. Hello again! Still I am unfamiliar with these devices. But, I think, after what just happened... this technology is better than the rest of it. I was lucky to have had somebody to help me. Him, a human, and me, a tauren, working together even here... I hope everybody else was able to... to, ah...
[She snaps her fingers a few times, looking to the side.]
...Co...compensate? Working together, that word. Doing that even in a stressful time, even with differences, is important, I think.
Still, I wish I could have done more to help. Being separate from all the elements like that, it made me feel a little weak. My strength is from them, so when I cannot speak with them... aah, I really must see this city's elder shaman! Where can I find them? Very thank you.

[ Goodness, that sounds more like something out of a fairy tale. Also, he can't help but note this one's appearance. This is a `tauren`? That sounds like something from folklore, too. His curiosity is definitely piqued. ]

[ N has learned about a lot of things over the past year. Shamans were not one of them. ]

[Aww man, how does she explain this in the human tongue... There are so many phrases she learned growing up that don't even translate to Orcish well.]
We... Hmm. I think, maybe, you can say we are here as the link between the living world and the spirit world. The ancestral spirits guide us, sometimes it is direct, sometimes in... in, ah... visions. And not only that, our job is also for keeping all the elements in balance and to get their aid for health and happiness of the whole tribe. Some of us are good for healing too, but I am better with the elements than medicine.
I do not know if that makes anything clearer...
Re: [ video ]
Magicians who are one with spirits... perhaps like a ghost-type Pokemon?
[ How fascinating! Although that does make him realize that he might know what she is talking about. ] Does this mean you are looking for the Headmaster?
[ video ]
The Headmaster... is that the... hand?
Re: [ video ]
Ah- but it is not the subject at hand. Yes, the Headmaster is the hand, one of them. He is the one who is considerably less... spastic.
Re: [ video ]
Re: [ video ]
[ It's as close to a shaman as he can think of! ]
Re: [ video ]
Re: [ video ]
[ He pauses and then brings a hand to his mouth, the other settling upon his lap. ] Oh, I... do not believe we know each other yet, do we? [ Both hands now fold themselves on his legs, his expression cheery and inviting. ]
Who are you? What is your name?
Re: [ video ]
[She looks TOTALLY HORRIFIED that she forgot the most basic of things. WHOA RUDE.]
Um, my-- my name is Aquenda Tenderhoof, of the Argent Dawn, and, ah, I still am training to be a better shaman! Yes. Okay. [PHEW.] Now please to tell me your name also.
Re: [ video ]
Aquenda! What a darling name, although I cannot say I know what the Argent Dawn is... but ah, that does not matter now. My name is N.
[ He extends his hands outward, looking incredibly welcoming, however awkward it might have looked. ] It is a pleasure.
[ video ]
Just N? It will be very easy to remember for me.
[Speaking of things looking awkward, every try to see a big cow lady try to bow in a seat that's already too small for her? YEAH, it predictably ends up breaking. Aquenda crashes to the ground, and reappears on-screen about ten seconds later.]
...That was... a really bad idea... I will bow more properly if we meet in person.
[Haha she hopes she doesn't get in trouble for property damage...]
Re: [ video ]
Woahhh, that is the last thing he expects to see. His eyes widen, both hands flying up to his mouth in purest shock. ]
Are you alright?! That sounded as though it might have hurt...!
[ Wait, might have? ]
[ video ]
My life is a MMORPG. I can't feel a damn thing.Oh, ah... It's not so bad. I think the chair is worse than me right now.
...
Um. I think, m-maybe, I should find a carpenter and fix it before asking favours from the Headmaster.
Re: [ video ]
[ N, do you know how much chairs cost? I don't think so. ]
Re: [ video ]
Re: [ video ]
[ As fast as he's going and as soft as his voice is, he might be just a bit difficult to understand. ]
[ video ]
Re: [ video ]
I am not skilled in chair repair, but I may be able to try to lend a hand.
[ Except he'll probably suck at it. No, he WILL suck at it. Oh well. ]
Re: [ video ]
[She's helped set up tents her whole life so OBVIOUSLY IT IS THE EXACT SAME THING.]
Re: [ video ]
[ YEAH P. MUCH ]
