[The video feed starts focused in close on a pale blue eye, darting from side to side as its owner attempts to discover if the feed is on. Once that’s apparently ascertained, the picture zooms back to show a face half cloaked in shadow, long pale hair covering what shadows do not. It is a man, perhaps in his mid-twenties, still fine-boned and almost delicate looking, and he is sitting in a dim room, lit only by a single candle.]

Well.

[The voice is higher than one might expect, smooth and cultured. He smiles, and it is at once amused and sharp.]

In light of what we have so recently been told, I have questions for you, my fellow Children of the Child-Worlds. I asked them of Loki, and he made me no answer, so I will ask them of you.

[His expression changes, amusement given way to curiosity, his visible eye seemingly staring straight into the viewer, unblinking. Some might find it a bit unnerving. His voice, though, is calm.]

Why do so many consider the gods liars? Have things they promised come to pass?

And if we fail, what more will be lost than what would be lost if we did nothing?

I would free the Lost to bring home the Mad. If he loves the little children as much as the story said, perhaps he will prove useful once again against the Queen of Frost.

So you want him back for tactical purposes?

[Which makes sense to ??? since he sees it as the the more beneficial course in theory.]

Perhaps. If he is the one who loves us best...there is worth in that, somehow.

True. I'm just worried if we're too late or if we end up losing more than we gain.

[But there's still a part him that wants Freyr rescued no matter the difficulties. It's probably being Roxas.]

There is always a gamble. There is little point in concern for being too late, though. Inaction for fear of being 'too late' only serves to make it a reality.
