Evening, Video

[There's a lot of spinning, as though someone hasn't figured out how a phone works yet, and the view briefly of a white snowfield. After the spinning stops the camera shows a boy, no older than 17, who is glaring back at the camera. He has black hair that's shaved on the sides and left long on top to go with equally black eyes. His voice has a rocksalt rasp to it, as though he gargles with whiskey and broken glass every morning when he does eventually speak;]

I know already this isn't Ketterdam anymore and the snow isn't bad enough to be Fjerda. So if this thing works the way the rest of these machines do, then someone tell me where to get a stiff drink. Nobody will want to be around me sober.

I didn't think it would change a thing. But when things turn really shitty, having a drink will cover up the shittiness for a while.

[ Kaz shrugs. ]

Apparently, I look too young for shops anyway. So looks like I have to go to the next phase; finding a way out of this trap.

[forleaving]

I guess so.

[Adam didn't usually go for temporary solutions, himself. Not when it came to this place, at least.]

You get teleported back in if you try to leave. I tried walking out of here when this place was a beach town and it didn't work. Now with the walls, it's a little harder to just stroll out, but I doubt it would work anyway.

[demjiin]

So walking out doesn't work.

[ Kaz rubs his eyes with one gloved hand. ]

Where's the highest place to climb around here?

[forleaving]

That you can climb? I don't know, actually.

The ski lodge, maybe. Are you aiming to see over the walls?

[demjiin]

No. Just trying to see all of wherever I am. Or as much as possible anyway.

[forleaving]

You can see all of it from just walking around, too.

That's what I've done.

[He imagined it was easier than climbing up on top of something, too.]
