Calling all travellers, please report to gate

FORM: Crystal
SENDER: Daniel Jackson
RECIPIENT: Everyone
WHAT: Anyone seen a Stargate lying around?
WHEN: Early Bloomingtide. Backdated to some days before phylactery shenanigans because he's gonna be distracted by that.
WHERE: Kirkwall
NOTES: He doesn't have super high hopes at this point, but he's yet to come across anything in his research and he's getting impatient.


[ If this sounds vaguely like someone speaking over an announcement loudspeaker, that's because that's how Daniel is treating this. ]

Hi, my name is Daniel Jackson. If anyone has seen, heard, or read of something called a Stargate, please get in touch with me.

It looks like a large metal ring, about twenty feet tall, with roughly forty glyphs around the circumference, and nine chevrons along the edges. It'll probably be very old, maybe found in a ruin somewhere. Uh, it could also have been called a Chappa'ai, Astria Porta, Ring of the Gods...

Anyway, if this rings a bell for anyone, please let me know. It's important. Thank you.

Perhaps, perhaps not. The Amaranth is not to be underestimated; it's devoid of any sentient species and all colonization attempts have failed. Supposedly, a lone survivor was driven mad and killed himself a short time after being discovered. It makes me wonder about the state of the Veil there, and whether the Breach could have made the status quo even worse from so far away.
