un: man's greatest treasure (video)
[ooc: This is set during the Annointed event of Unkharil.]
[The video shows the jungle for a moment, followed by a close-up of Hermione's face in the dark, illuminated by the Lumos spell at the tip of her wand. She looks wide-eyed, a little dishevelled, leaning against a massive tree trunk. She looks at the camera, trying to figure out the point she was going to make, opens her mouth, closes it. Pauses.
Then:] Drugs are bad. Prophecy drugs are bad. Don't do drugs, kids. [Another pause.] Are there even any kids around for this public service announcement? Probably not awake at this hour anyway...[She rubs one hand over her face, the wand still in said hand creating a bit of strobe light effect for anyone watching.]
Right - the point. I found the giant snake - not a Basilisk as I had suspected, given that I'm not petrified this time, but that's beyond the point. I have a vial for Deimar - and instructions, which I'll deliver, but I wanted to see if anyone else has...gone in? The jungle, for the anointment venom. [Merlin, this place is weird and these people are weird.]
For people keen to keep track - our Alem prince is meant to find who in his midst has bloodshed on their hands. I tried to ask if that meant people from Alem, or included us as well, but Kharil-asuk didn't answer.
[A pause.] Yes - that's it.

I would not be opposed, but I've already made a friend - I mean, accepted the help of a friend to come get me, so I don't want it to be for naught.
no subject
Alright. I'll leave you and your hopefully sober friend to get you back in one piece.
[ And how is this friend finding the right tree, Hermione? Riddle him that. ]
Good work, by the way. And I think I speak for the majority when I say I'm pleased you didn't get eaten.
