I took a little trip, but I`m back now. You haven`t forgotten me, have you? It hasn`t been THAT long. I think I should be upset if I`ve been forgotten already, or something!
In case we haven`t met, my name is Henry. Since I already graduated and all that, I`m gonna be a teacher this time! Won`t that be fun? If you take my class, I`ll teach you all sorts of neat stuff. From how to turn your friends into slugs, to granting sentience to a dismembered chunk of flesh, to plotting out an episode of magically-induced hives for an entire army, I can teach you anything about sorcery and dark magic. (What if the hives were SO itchy that the soldiers started flaying off their skin just for relief? That would be something to see...)
Juuust so you know, I`m not responsible for any accidental injury, disease, or death experienced in my class. Neither`s the school, more fine text, blah blah, risk of possible and permanent side effects from malevolent spiritual interaction, your responsibility... you understand. Keep it in mind, okay? Bye!

It's fine~. It made me who I am today, and I think I turned out pretty well~!
[He opens his mouth to describe himself, but he finds that he doesn't really have the words anymore. Somebody he knew told him they didn't think he turned out as well as he said he did, so maybe he was wrong and just couldn't see it... He laughs sheepishly. It was hard to evaluate yourself when everybody said you were wrong.]
...Or, at least I'm trying to get better, ahah. But it's fine!

[So how was it that this guy seemed to smile so much and talk in that happy, sing-song kind of voice? If he was really that mistreated, shouldn't he be a bitter, grizzled asshole like... well. Like pretty much everyone Joel knew back home? Still. Smiles could hide a lot.]
Good... luck. Getting better. This place seems to be kind've a second chance for a lot of folks.
[Heck, Joel himself almost felt like a regular person sometimes because of this place. He'd managed to claw back some kind of normalcy. If he could do it, there had to be others who could do the same.]

[Henry doesn't know the meaning of normal, so he doesn't know where to look. It doesn't immediately occur to him that many people pursue a quiet life without war, pain, or killing. Twisted is all he knew, unfortunately. ...Save the valuable time spent with the Ylissean army.]

[He tilts his head at the monitor.]
Good luck to you, too~ Finding your second chance.

I, uh... I appreciate it.
