video transmission
[The video cuts on to a dimly lit study. From the angle of the camera, floor to ceiling bookcases can be seen, stuffed to the brim with tomes and scrolls, all layered thickly with dust and cobwebs. The light becomes a little brighter when a small lantern is placed near the video source, and one of the creatures from those wanted posters (or your own encounters) hobbles slowly into view.
Little can be read in its face, though the corners of its mouth, just visible beneath it's strange snout, twitch upward in a vague sort of smile.
And then it speaks. The voice is high, feminine, and far more cultured than the savagery of these creatures suggested it would be.]
Oh yes yes this will do nicely! [The yellow orbs that pass for its (her?) eyes seem to pivot and turn to face the feed.] Hello, Outlanders. I wanted to thank you personally for restoring what souls were not lost to our bodies.
[She pauses here for a moment, small body swaying as though deep in thought.]
I realize this may not have been your intention, but that is what's happened all the same. Well...those of us whose bodies could still carry us at the least. We were consumed and it couldn't be helped. If we harmed any of you, I am deeply sorry. The Voidcryst shard housed here did quite a number of us when it exploded. I'm sure you all have questions, and I'll do my best to answer them, though be warned my memory is a tad fuzzy, what with having my soul trapped away from my body for a time and all that. I remember enough to know I was an authority figure here at the academy and that we were researching viable uses from the shard collected from the Voidcryst.
There was and from my preliminary tests still is a failsafe in place in the event something of the magnitude that occurred...occurred, and that means this place is not safe for anyone who wasn't present at the time of the explosion until it's dealt with. In the central spire is housed an apparatus that can be used to deactivate the containment field in the basement. I should warn you, once it is deactivated, whatever may have come through the portal created by the explosion of the Cryst will need to be handled before it escapes. I would suggest a tandem operation. [And then she grins, if it can be called that.] Your questions are welcome!
