[After struggling to figure out how the hell she can write on the parchment with no thumbs and without getting bits of feather from the quill stuck in her mouth, Liz has figured out that there is in fact a way to get video on these things. She's seen others do it by now but she supposes now she's figured out how to do it herself.

That done, she looks at the scroll with a serious, concerned expression.]

My name is Iron Liz. I'm new here, though I guess that's not news anymore. I...wanted to ask something, you know, out in the open.

Has anypony heard of a place called Kon Ran? I've heard the name a few times around, from ponies who claimed they knew me there, but I know nothing about it. If I was supposedly there, I guess I should figure out who else might know me from some crazy trip. Write me back with any information you might have, please.

[She starts to dismiss the video spell, but pauses, looking back at the scroll with a lighter expression]

Oh, and what might you ponies have around here in the realm of tabletop gaming?

[polyturtle]

[Welp, may as well raise a hoof in the air regarding Kon Ran. Buuuut Liz probably already figured that one out.]

[Visual]

[iron_mare]

Donatello, right? Was what you told me before everything?

[Visual]

[polyturtle]

[He nodded.]

Yeah. There's other stuff too, but I'd prefer not to say it publicly. Give me a sec to figure out how to, uh, make this conversation not public.

[Visual]

[iron_mare]

[Oh dear.

Welp, she waits a bit on that. Back in her day with Cambot there wasn't really a such thing as a private conversation over them.]

[Visual/Private]

[polyturtle]

[It took a little bit of time, but Don figures it out, thank shell.]

Sorry about that. Um. Yes.

You should be aware, if you're not, that Pollo is here. Its...he was once Mechakara.

[Visual/Private]

[iron_mare]

[Her ears twitch a little at that.]

So I found out.

[visual]

[soulofblue]

[Yep, he's here too. They've already been through this, but...yeeeeeeeah.]

[visual]

[iron_mare]

Just you two so far...

[visual]

[soulofblue]

That's too bad. Most of them were good people.

[visual]

[iron_mare]

Well from the story Don gave me at least they're alive?

[Not that she knows who he's talking about...]

[visual]

[soulofblue]

Yes, that's true...

[He just misses his friends. Well. Friend.]

[Visual]

[atomicsuperstar]

Can't say I've ever been.

[And from what he can gather, he doesn't want to go. He pauses for a second, trying to gather his thoughts.]

Tabletop gaming?

[Excuse his ignorance. Despite his field of expertise, nerdy crap is sort of out of his range.]

[Visual]

[iron_mare]

[Hey, if he doesn't know anything, no reason to dwell on it; she can talk about GAMING!]

Yeah! You know, when you get all your friends together to eat Cheetos and roll dice to slaughter imaginary goblins!

[Visual]

[atomicsuperstar]

Doesn't sound like my thing.

Actually, that kinda sounds like a waste of effort in these circumstances. I bet I could go out and fight an actual goblin right now.

[It'd be a terrible idea, but still, for the sake of the argument.]

[Visual]

[iron_mare]

Yeah, but this ends with far fewer broken bones. Unless you're playing with a bad crowd.

Besides, you don't look like the type who can cast Fireball.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Iron Liz?

Huh. That almost sounds like a legitimate pony name.

[iron_mare]

Well thank you. I'm very proud of my name.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

[He peers at the scroll curiously, then shrugs.]

Guess you're fitting right in here. You look like you've got the 'horse' thing down.

[iron_mare]

That's "pony" to you, mister.

I've had a little practice. And it's kinda fun once you get used to the four legs thing. Just gotta roll with it a little.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

What's the difference? A four-legged equine. Which apparently has two extra limbs around here on occasion.

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

It is not good. Not at all!

Can you believe that no one here has never even heard of Gary Gygax? I mean, if that isn't bad enough, when you start talking about Magic everyone thinks you're talking about real magic. Like, magical magic!

[Visual]

[iron_mare]

...Seeing as how I'm familiar with magic as the real thing AND Magic: The Gathering, you might have to clarify a little there.

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

The first magic was Magic the Gathering, all the other magics were about the kind of stuff the unicorns here do.

[Visual]

[iron_mare]

Together at last, eh?

[Visual]

[whywouldyoubuckleup]

What's that?
