[The voice that comes on is light and cheerful and opens with a laugh.]

Hey hey- quick question guys. So I've talked to a few people over the past couple weeks, and I'm getting the idea that a lot of you aren't too keen on the whole 'murdering your fellow man' thing. Which totally surprises me, since I thought we were pulled here to murder things! Or fight a war, I guess.

So this is a little informal poll!

Uh- how many of you have killed someone before? Of your own species, or close enough! Cold blood, warm blood, lots of blood- method or reason don't really matter.

If you want to give details, that'd be awesome.

--I guess I should start, though, huh? I've killed loads of people. Like a lot! [More laughter.] Buuut my world's had at least two wars just in my lifetime, so there's never been any shortage of targets, nya ha ha!

Okay, your turn!

I can get that. Do the gods step in at all, if someone decides to massacre just a few too many folk?

What happened to them?

If they have, it was only recently. There is a new system in the network that would alert every Traveller through their bracelets in the event of an emergency. The gods would be alerted as well.

As for what happened to the defectors, I cannot say for certain.

So if someone was bleeding out everywhere, it would auto-trigger and let everyone watch?

Well, if I end up going that way, I'll see if I can find out!

Yes, assuming the network is activated. I'm not overly familiar with the particulars, and it has only been deliberately activated once.

Then we shall see how the Queen of Frost treats you. I hear she is not kind.

Soooo.... if I met an awesomely bloody demise, it could record it? And we come back from the dead here, right? So I could potentially watch said bloody demise? ...Repeatedly?

[This is clearly the intended use of the technology.]

And sweet, I hope so!

I'm not sure if it would record with the emergency system... But with the normal settings it should be possible. [IClearly that's the best use for it.]

Any reason why you desire unkindness?

Hrm... thanks! One way or another, I totally have to record it, if I end up biting the big one! Do you know how long it takes to come back? I'm guessing it's not too long. Not much time to observe my own rotting carcass...

Not unkindness so much as brutal icy mutilations! Nya ha!

Hardly any time to observe a rotting carcass, individuals are revived in minutes. [Not that he has any personal experience, he has yet to die here.]

Masochism?

Aww... do you think if I asked the gods nicely they'd wait a few weeks? I'd miss out on the flies! The bloating!

But nope, not really. Don't really like pain.

Likely not, it's an unusual request by itself. [Who would want to supervise that body anyway?]

... Torture can be difficult to happen without pain.

Too bad. ...not even Hel? I thought she liked dead things....

Not for me! Don't feel much at all. Great, huh?

She is merely the guardian of the dead, that doesn't mean she has to have a fondness for it. [But what did he know? Eyes had hardly spoken with her.]

And I suppose, if that is what you are fond of.

I think I'll ask her anyway! No harm in that.

Yup! It's a pretty good deal. --Oh yeah, did you ever answer my question?

No harm at all. [Especially with the amount of interest he had in the topic of death.]

And no, I did not answer you question. What would your guess be?

Hrm... maybe there's a secret murderous past there. Or maybe it's just wishful thinking!

It could be, do you desire to find others who share in your love of blood so terribly?

Aw, I'm not dead-set on anything! But it would be a nice bonus.

A nice bonus, hm? ... I will admit that I have my share of blood staining my hands.
