[ Rhys has only just stepped out of the castle when he starts the video. There's not much that has changed about him. His hair is slicked slightly more to the side, with a couple of stylish stray hairs hanging down, and the colour of his left eye is golden rather than blue. Closer to his natural eye color, but still obviously different.

If he doesn't look very happy, well, that's because he was in the middle of something. Meaning that, after a lot of time and effort, they finally managed to open the damn vault, but before he got to actually see what was in that big chest, he ended up here. So, yeah, you can bet he's annoyed. All that work and he's left with a cliffhanger, and now it might be months before he finds out! ]

Hi, everyone. Not sure ... I don't know who noticed I was gone, or how long I was gone, or who's still here, but ... I'm back? Rhys. That's my name. I'm-- Uh. So. Slightly disconcerting fact. I went home for ... a while. Like. Months. Thing is, I don't think I remembered ever being here. I'm a little, uh, confused, still. It's like I need to sort out what order everything happened in and who everyone is.

A lot's happened. Not gonna go into that. Just a ... couple of things. Firstly, if Klaus and company are still here and you're still living in that house, I'd love if someone could meet me halfway with a coat or something because I'm dressed for the desert, not this. Secondly, Gaige, if you're still here and willing to talk to me, that'd be ... great. Or I guess you could just cuss me out more, or punch me in the face, or whatever.

Other than that, let me know if I missed anything exciting? Again, no idea how long it's been. Pretty sure it was winter when I was here last but, I dunno, maybe it's been a whole year. Or more.

[ He does one single finger gun, and ends the feed before he starts making his way through Honir district.

Feel free to run into him in person and say hi. ]

[The screen flicks on to find a green woman sitting in a chair with bright, colorful hair worrying her hands. It's almost like she's nervous or something!! That can't be as she very calmly addresses the camera.] I have been told that certain events require announcements.

[She vaguely remembers her people doing the same once upon a time too. Gamora holds her head up high as she announces the rest.] I have accepted a great honor. My partner asked if I was willing to spend the rest of my life with him. I agreed to the proposal.

[She brings up her left hand to the camera so that everyone can clearly see this ring that contrasts sharply against the dark metal ones on her other fingers. ] Wearing this ring symbolizes my intent to honor our agreement. It is a custom of Earth. It is my understanding there is more to come after this, but I intend to honor those traditions as well even if I am not of that planet.

That is all. [She ends the feed there.]
