[Good morning, Asgard. There's a cheerful warlock wearing a dopey sort of grin on your bracelet screen.]
Since Arthur's already had his time to talk about the Citadel, I guess it's my turn. After what happened with the Gentlemen attacking, and the SOS message a couple days ago, it's not a bad time to remind everyone that the Medic Corps are still around. If you want to help with the war effort but aren't a fighter yourself, we could always use more healers willing to go onto the field and help the wounded. The hospital's a good place to work if being a physician is something you'd like to do, too.
I've just finished packing some more of the medicine kits. [He holds his own kit up to the screen as an example.] If you want one, or if you need to restock yours, just go to the hospital and ask for Merlin.
Right--speaking of the hospital. I've been talking to Jack, and we're going to be redecorating the hospital. Most of the walls and rooms are white, it's hard to believe any patient would recover while looking at something so painfully bare. We could use the help brightening the place up. Paint, portraits, trinkets--anything you've got that you that you want to contribute, I'm sure we'll find some place to put it. Or Jack's little ducklings will if we older folks can't. [Merlin grins, picturing the Guardian surrounded by the native and traveler children.]
Send all of that over to the hospital if you want, or [the half teasing, half sly expression on his face indicates the second option is the better one] you can come and help us decorate in a few days. There's enough of you good at creating and the like that it shouldn't be a problem, right?
[Was that a challenge you just heard? Nah, probably your imagination. Merlin beams, practically radiating cheer and innocence.] Great, so I'll see you all there!

[The look he gives Samantha now is deeply suspicious. Never mind. Probably better to move onto another topic...?]
How's in...a week or two sound? I wanted to have workshops for this council meeting, and that might take some time to plan.
Re: [Video]
[Innocent grin is innocent] That sounds like a great idea actually. [Probably right after the insanity that's about to descend...]

We've always been teaching the powers, runes, and fighting like they're all different things, but I think it would help if we combined them all somehow when the battle finally comes.
Oh, and, any poultices that you want to give us would be great.
[Video]
...and yes. I was thinking that combined attacks may be the way to really get just that last bit of edge out of the powers to make it count when we need it. Stamina, runes, combined with Heimdall and one of the other powers or two in conjunction... the Dragons can't stand up to those kinds of attacks if we put them together like that.
[Video]
As for the dragons... [He sighs and glances to the side where Aithusa is napping.] Last time, Draco, Euri, and I made a potion that took them down easily. Queen Skuld told us about a few dragons living outside of Surt's control, and that's where we learned about the herbs we used. If we're expecting more of them to attack, we might have to gather some more Dragonsbane and Isenvane.

[...somehow.]
What did you and the others use when you caught the other dragons? If you used a certain kind of weapon, we could always try to make more.
Re: [Video]
He probably netted about ten, fifteen seconds of control, but it was enough to fly at Thiazi and breathe fire all around her and her troops. She killed the dragon for us and sent it back as a present the hard way.
