FORM: Sending Crystal
SENDER: Obi-Wan Kenobi
RECIPIENT: Everyone
WHAT: An announcement, and a thought-experiment
WHEN: After having resolved the Leliana/Assassination plot
NOTES: n/a

This is Obi-Wan Kenobi. I apologize for the delay in doing so, but I'd like to make an announcement; I've been appointed as the liason for the Rifter population.

For this reason, if you have a concern about a particular Rifter which cannot be peacefully resolved on your own, or if any Rifter has need of information, or support, please don't hesitate to contact me. I know we may not seem like any kind of cohesive group, but you aren't alone. Please, try to remember that.

[He clears his throat, then and continues.]

As for the rest of you, I have a question. Nothing too serious, just a little... oh, call it a thought-exercise: I first heard this one as a child.

If your house was on fire, what's the first thing you'd take out of it?

There are similarities there with my own experience. I've never had much in the way of possessions.

[obi_wanmanshow]

You know, perhaps I could go for my weapon. I can't easily replace it, given the-- well, the technological limitations, of Thedas. But then, I'm rarely so far from it that I have to go back anywhere to get it.

[justice_is_blond]

Technological limitations? What is your weapon?

[obi_wanmanshow]

It's a lightsaber, a Jedi weapon. It came through with me, when I arrived, if that gives you any indication for how well I keep ahold of it.

I've heard it mistaken for a Knight-enchanter's blade, if that helps you imagine it. But it's not the same thing, really.

[justice_is_blond]

It helps a little. What's the difference?

[obi_wanmanshow]

There are quite a few. I'd prefer not to discuss the details so publicly.

[justice_is_blond]

Perhaps I'll see it someday, then.

[obi_wanmanshow]

...would you like to?

[justice_is_blond]

I would. I'm fascinated with many of the variations between worlds, though some of them are confusing.
