Voice - Week 41 - Thursday, Late Morning - Single message sent to Koz, Wes, and Christine

I am awake. Was anyone else hurt? I hope not. Despite not knowing how long I have been asleep, it seems that I am well. The three of you have my gratitude for your efforts and my apologies for being foolish enough to be caught in such a situation. If any of you were harmed, I shall be most grieved.

You were foolish to go in the first place, but it was your choice to do so.

[His tone is flat, dissapointed.]

The roof is done on the house, dinner will be there by the time you arrive.

[His tone is more than enough to make her heart sink. Immediately following it is a spark of anger that she conceals behind sarcasm.]

Kozmotis! Greetings - I feared that I would never hear your dulcet tones again. How wonderful to know you are alive and well after all this time.

I survived two wars and about forty thousand years after that just fine Elissa, it'll take a lot more than what this planet has thrown at me to end that.

Well, I shall endeavor not to be late for the nightly meal. We shall have another living with us, by the way. He is strong and brave and shall be sleeping in my bed.

So long as they observe the rules of my home I don't have a problem with anyone coming to it. Those being that you don't let the fire go out and it is neutral ground. Physical fights and attacks will not be tolerated.

[There is a hint of amusement to her this time when she speaks.]

I shall let you explain it to him when we arrive, if that is well with you? Until then, I shall insure that he knows you are to be respected.

Glad to hear it. I don't recall anyone else getting hurt either.

Andraste be praised. Well, if you are amenable, I would like to thank you with a dinner or something. At the very least, I would like to get to know you better. Not only are you a brave woman, but you are very capable and I am in your debt.

Oh, well thank you for saying so. Dinner would be nice. Did you have a particular day in mind?

[A hint of laughter touches Elissa's voice.]

No, not yet. In fact, I'm not even certain of this day at present nor how long that I have been gone. Allow me to find my wits again and then I shall be better at making plans.

Sure. There's no rush. I can tell you it's been two weeks since we were at the crash site.

That long.

I suppose my injuries were rather severe. This means that I've missed the Festival and Akito's birthday party does it not?

They were.

[And field medicine couldn't hold her together long enough. Christine wished she could have done more.]

Yeah, unfortunately.

Perhaps death will be an acceptable excuse for missing such an event. I cannot see Akito holding a grudge - I only hope he was not disappointed since I had promised him that I would go.

I am unfamiliar with the way such things work on Verdana. At home, dead usually meant dead, though I am almost certain I was once revived from the dead early on in my travels. Do you know if my armor can be located anywhere?

I know the feeling, believe me.

[There was nothing like dying and coming back to life to make you question the mysteries of the universe.]

Umm, you could try at the hospital? That's assuming you already checked in your foot locker.

I did. The locker held nothing but some simple clothing, shoes, and another communications box.

...

Have you died and returned here as well, Christine?

I have, yeah. It was when we all got shuffled around through time. Not a pleasant experience.

Then tis an unpleasant experience we share. Kozmotis sounded grumpier than usual when he replied to my message, so I am uncertain about inviting you over to dine. Do you know of any taverns with good food in the city?

[She rattles off a couple names and what streets they're on.]

At least, those are what I've tried so far.

Very well. I shall explore them for myself. Did you have a favorite?

[The sound of an approaching hovercraft makes her next words difficult to hear, so Elissa shouts at the device.]

I SHALL CONTACT YOU AGAIN! I THINK MY RIDE IS HERE!

[Christine has to think that over, so it's actually good that they have to hang up, since it gives her time to choose. Shouting back, she says:]

OKAY! BYE!

Good to hear you back among the conscious. Don't worry about me, I've been through worse.

Janson! [The delight in her voice is undisguised.]

If you are not too busy attending to your duties, would it be possible for you to come by the ship? I could use assistance in getting home, if tis not too much trouble - and I have something quite important to give to you.

I have a policy of always making time for pretty women.
