[ There's a zoom in of orange-red before it moves back to resolve itself into a long-haired man with an eyepatch on his right eye, an unlit cigarette perched on his lips. He sounds slightly agitated when he speaks. ]

Let me get this straight. I got straight up magicked or whatever here to play hero? Didn't ask for this but here we are. If it wasn't for th' fact that I was kinda in mortal-fucking-danger a few minutes before and suddenly not, I'm gonna guess this ain't a hallucination. Feels solid enough.

Anyone want to give me pointers?

[ He seems to be taking this well... Is it suppressed? Is it because he's been through a lot before this? Who can say?

There's a deep sigh. ]

So yeah, before we get to the good shit and someone gives me the cliff-notes...Anyone got a lighter?

You don't have to. Like you're perfectly allowed to just stay in the city proper and not deal with that. But like, there's quests and stuff that pay really well if you do want to go out and fight them.

[The catch is that money is a nice thing to have.]
