[When the video comes on, it appears that Darin is down at the Red Spring training grounds. There are a number of people practicing their magic, but Darin doesn't seem to be taking part.]

So...I've been doing a lot of thinking. I know that a lot of us come from worlds where we used to have abilities, but now we're here and we've been gifted with magic. And...don't get me wrong, I'm actually pretty pumped about the idea. Back home, I didn't have mana so I couldn't use magic but here I can.

But, I also spent the better part of my life honing abilities I don't have anymore and that's...jarring. Especially with some of the crazy things going down, I feel like I'm less prepared in a fight than I've ever been. Especially since my magic hasn't really given me a lot of offensive capabilities.

So, I was wondering if anyone out there felt the same? Has anyone else lost abilities that they feel kinda...weakened or sluggish without? And, if so, I was thinking of starting my training up again. Back home, I used to train with the royal guard and I think it's about time I get back into that routine. If anyone else has any training regimens or just wants to find a good sparring partner, I'm definitely open. I'm gonna try and come down to the Red Spring to train a few times a week.

Any takers?

[This might just be a thinly veiled excuse to start a fight club. Who knows??]

[ A video comes on and it awkwardly shakes for a moment before he seems to figure out how to steady it and ask a question. It seems to be dark outside, and behind him is only trees. He seems fairly comfortable by a fire out here. His face has a bit of dirt and mud on it, and there's a couple of grass stains on his forehead. How long has he been out here? Hard to say. He likes it. ]

Have question!

[ And, here he goes. ]

Want to know everyone favorite place to eat.

[ He considers - ]

Want to buy good food for friends. Not hunt or fish.

[ And then - he adds quickly. ]

Thank you!
