That wasn’t weather: that was a light fluffy blanket. If you trip over in the Jerralls you vanish in a puff of snow. One light frost and your advanced machines go to pieces.

I have an important question, though: how many ordinary people have I actually met? You know, as opposed to werewolves, or necromancers, or... weird things from another plane? Because while I like to think I’m pretty good at talking to all of those (well, some of them) it’d… be nice to know.

...Huh. You have a point. I do like surprises. I just like to give as well as receive, you understand?

What if it had blow up in your face? What would you have done then? Sounds way too crazy and strange for me.

Lots of people say that about conjuration. But it suits me just fine. The mysteries, the strange beings, the thrills and danger... the rewards are worth the risks, believe me.

[He shrugs modestly.]

That is, if you're good at it.

You don't seem that good at it though. Those things wanted to slice you up and that dragon thing would have eaten your head. Obviously you need more practise. Somewhere safe preferably and under guidance.

Hahah. We'll see. I'm not that interested in portals, anyway - I just wanted to see if I could open one yet.

Yeah and you succeeded. Never mind the blood thirsting creatures...

[He laughs] You make it sound like nothing's ever tried to kill you before.

I have got my ass kicked a few times and ended up in bad situations pal. But nothing has tried to kill me.

Huh. Your world seems... very different to mine. So who do you get into fights with? Some local thugs?

Yeah, you can say so. I am starting to realize our worlds are different. You got any cars or trains in your world?

I've heard words like those. But somehow I doubt they mean the same things you do.

How can they mean something else? [Light scowl, a bit puzzled.]

Well, I know what training is, obviously. And a train is like a sequence or a procession. You know, like a train of events, or all the people the Emperor drags around behind him.

[He scratches his head.] I'm not so sure about cars. I think I read it in a history book years ago.

Uh yeah, we you put it like that. Then I understand that it may mean several things. I was thinking about a mechanical train which transports people and wares. But yeah you got a valid point. [Scrunches his face a little.]

Machines were really the Dwemer's speciality. [shrug] Most people just use carts.

In my world everyone uses machines for transport, cooking, recreation etc. We do use carts for some things though, Some countries uses them more than others. Your would doesn't sound that technology advanced.

Most people aren't that interested in gadgets. Besides, we have our own ways of getting work done for us.

Ain't true for my world though. People love their gadgets over here. They use them for all kind of things. We only got technology to help us though since we doesn't got any magic.

At least you've got something. All that smithing and handcraft isn't my style, but you've got to appreciate skill.

[chuckle]

Next time I'm stranded I'll be sure to bring a few gizmos to sell.

Eh? I don't make the stuff I use, I buy it. I got skill in repairing cars, my world's primary transport, but that's about it.

Stranded where?

Your people, I meant. We can't all be great craftsmen - someone's got to use what they make, right?

[He shrugs at the question.] Your world. Some world. Anywhere they might have a liking for strange mechanical things.

[If Tamriel had a Prime Directive, Felix would laugh at it.]

Yeah, that's true.

[Nods slowly.]

Alright I understand. However, many of the mechanical things from my world won't work without a power source or fuel.
