[ He turns on the video immediately and smiles a bit into the camera. The smile, at the very least, appears to be sincere. Maybe. The room is quiet, he's in a private room. ]

So - I just arrived here, and while the orientation was very helpful, I have questions of my own, and personal experience from those who arrived in a similar manner to myself might be the best ones to give me that.

First, I guess I should introduce myself. I'm Ryo Asuka and I'm the newest Professor at the University, and I teach archaeology.

[ He does seem to be quite young, more like - he should be a student, not a professor. ]

I've worked on a few archaeological sites, and I'd like to hear about some of the more fascinating locations beyond the wall. I'd like to personally go, but I wonder if it would be too dangerous to go alone.

[ Not that danger seems to bother him, but he'd like to hear others evaluations of how dangerous it is. ]

I still think I may want to go, but I am curious if it is worth the risk. It is hard to resist temptation.

[ There's the briefest hint of amusement when he says that. Props his elbow up on the table and leans into his hand, smile still present. ]

Oh - tell me, if you've gone out there, what is the most dangerous creature you've encountered.

That's for sure. If you check out the mission board, there are missions you can join and we're pretty much swimming in combatants, funnily enough.

What kind of things are you looking to find? Any personal interests?

That's incredibly lucky for those of us who aren't really.

I studied Archaeology, but my expertise is in ancient civilizations and religions.

Just as good for the ones getting bored of perimeter work. Might want to bring a really big stick anyway, though.

Gotcha. My dad had some interest, but I don't really know much about it. There might be something worth salvaging from the abandoned area or the forest. You don't need a permit to go out, but I'd get a permit from the city and log a dig site, just to be safe.

I'm decent with a gun, so I won't be totally defenseless.

I appreciate your advice. I'll remember that. I would hate to get in trouble in my first weeks here for crossing a line they didn't want crossed.
