[Evening Day 6] Incoming from ???

[navi_no]

[Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, the jewel on your bangle suddenly, inexplicably crackles to life.

You all know the voices (colours, for Lucus) - you heard at least one prior to arrival on the Noanga.

While glitching crackle drowns out most of the message, you manage to make out the following:]

Invited.

A --- next few days--- go--- engage. Repeat do---.

[Lucas will note the message is laced with pain and distress, as if sending this harmed the senders somehow.]

[The emotions laced into the message concern him a lot more than the actual content. No one should be hurting from talking! Perhaps these are beings not yet ready for what tech they found? It happens sometimes. He can't just leave that unanswered, even if the gem itself is a very neutral green.

The reply will be in text for a rare difference. Minimal data transferred, not even a picture attached. Via the bangle too, meaning he painstakingly crafted a very simple, clear question on his slate and then copied down the translated human words it spit out. This takes forever and he hates how it will lack all his usual emotional nuances, but he doesn't want to cause further harm.]

"Need help?"

[navi_no]

[Unfortunately, there are no words in the reply -or if there are they are lost to static-, only distress with a tint of worry to it.]

[kosmonautilus]

[Hm. That is not quite enough to get him to take any further action, but it will be filed away for the future, somewhere in his vast subconscious.]
