@R.Greenhilt: Video
Good afternoon. My name is Roy Greenhilt.
[Someone isn't in a festival mood; Roy wears his armor and carries his sword as a rule, and today is no exception. In fact, he has carefully chosen a spot by the wall to remind the viewer of the hostile world outside this contains area, and by extension, the moral and ethical responsibility they each have to aid others on this world who might have to deal with it.]
[Presentation, Roy has learned, counts for a lot.]
I'm looking for accompaniment on a mission outside of these walls. According to city officials, who have detected this via some sort of sensing array, there's a group of intelligent beings out there whose numbers are decreasing, and I believe this needs to be investigated and these people helped, possibly by bringing them back here.
To that extent, I am looking for people who are capable of driving the automated vehicles here, as well as those capable of protecting them. Healers or those with ranks in Heal would also be appreciated. If I'm able to assemble a small group we'll be departing as soon as possible, so please be aware this may curtail your festival experience.
[That ought to cut down on people who wound rather be partying than helping others, at least.]
Please contact me at your earliest convenience if you are willing to come along on this expedition. Thank you for your time.

[It takes Sieglinde a moment to figure out how to make her phone show her face. It had been explained to her, but to be honest most of it went over her head...
After a few moments, though, she manages to blunder into it. She's in the barracks at the moment, and not currently wearing her armor, so the face Roy sees will be that of a seventeen year old girl, with blonde hair tied back in a bun.]
We met at the festival. I am Sieglinde of Catarina - I was the one in the armor, who bumped into you.
If there are people beyond the wall who need help, I'd be glad to be of service.

[Well, who is he to judge? She's well past the minimum starting age for a fighter and she clearly can wear her armor effectively enough to demonstrate adequate strength and training, so she must be able to do the job. So his answering video contains none of his initial surprise.]
That's the sort of attitude I most like to hear. I'd be happy to have you along.
no subject
[She's also looking forward to showing off her mettle to a fellow warrior. As motivated as she is to help those in need, she also knows that she's a representative of Catarina in this place - mustn't make the knighthood look bad!]
I've no experience driving anything more complex than a carriage, I'm afraid, but I'm a skilled warrior. I will defend these vehicles to the best of my ability.
no subject
[Roy at least TRIES not to be judgmental of the worlds of others.]
no subject
[It's clear from the tone of her voice and the expression on her face - she's impressed. Even if she isn't entirely certain what an airship would even look like, the concept is simple enough to understand, and hardly any more fantastic than half the things she's seen since arriving here.
Her awe doesn't last long, however, as she quickly takes note of Roy's apparent frustration with some of the others' perspectives.]
Erm, in any case, their familiarity with such things is far from an inconvenience. They'll doubtlessly be useful in this endeavor.
Speaking of which, did you have a time you intended to leave?
no subject
[He's guessing she understands, if she's seen enough of it.]
no subject
[Surprise, she loves flowers. Even if she hasn't really been participating in the festivals all that much.]
I agree that sooner is better, though. If these people are in need, we mustn't keep them waiting.
no subject
[But Roy shrugs, aware that in some ways he's quite conservative.]
I'd rather be doing some exploration or assistance or something similar myself.
