03; video→ semi-filtered.
[Approximately three days after This transmission, there's another one. Needless to say, it's heavily filtered.
The camera is placed sideways, as Ringabel can't exactly get up. Not just yet. He's in his room in HospiTown, hair, for once, unstyled. Distinctly longer on one side than the other, if anything with it down he looks younger. Softer, even. More easily hurt. There might be a few blue claws poking at the sides of the screen as Biyomon fusses around him.]
I'm so happy you're awake now. That was weird, wasn't it? Do you normally just pass out, screaming like that?
It's the first time it's happened to me. That I remember, anyway. Regardless, the mechanism is transmitting now. Give me a moment.
Okay! I'll be right outside. Make sure I can use it when you're finished!
I will. Thank you.
[Filtered→ Sora, Beastboy and their digimon.]
[There's a small pause before Ringabel speaks. His eyes look quite grave when he does, and the change between his normal flippant demeanour and this quiet sincerity is quite startling.]
...I, and Escha wish to thank you for coming to our rescue. This is... difficult for me to do, as I am not used to being the one which needs saving. Nor am I used to people risking themselves for me. So I apologize in advance if my words come off as flippant... or not enough for what you have done.
But thank you- truly. All of you. I am in your debt, and it is one I will not see unpaid.
[Filtered→ Terra.]
It has been some days after I planned to brief you about this little adventure. or that, I apologize.
...No ARCloner, and no Titamon. To give you some more bad news, we've little in the way of food. There are quite simply no animals or insects, so meat is out of the question. The flora I have observed is strange to me. I've not seen it's like on my world, and thus don't exactly know if it is suitable for human consumption or not. ...And I'm none too eager to try my luck with that, I'm afraid.
Some small silver lining I might be able to afford you is that I noticed fish swimming in the waters of the coast. I've no idea what could sustain them, to be frank. Furthermore, to the North is a structure known as Myotismon's castle. When I arrived, it appeared quite abandoned, though something...
There were tags scattered throughout the castle. Upon finding all six, they converged into another one which I have on my person. Furthermore, something called a "Digital Hazard", a symbol, appeared which terrified Escha. I've a feeling the digimon we're paired with know all about it- you might want to ask your one some questions. An aggressive digimon came from it.
...Otherwise, do try and stay away from roaming digimon. Some of them don't appear to like us very much. Travel safely.

[And that's that. There's a small sigh before Ringabel's eyes close, and some claws are viewable at the ends of the camera again. It's moved to another room, and there's the sounds of a door shutting. Private transmissions over! This one's for everyone. The camera then shows Biyomon, with a certain garment.]
So, um... I was wondering... Is there anyone here that's good with repairing items of clothing? My chosen... got hurt. Pretty badly, and then got hurt again. And, well... he's got other things to wear, but he woke up this morning, and seems really sad. I think it might cheer him up a little if I could get this... repaired. Somehow. If possible.
[Biyomon holds up a certain top, something which once appeared to be a pretty sturdy piece made of dyed blue sheepskin and white fleece, adorned with silver. Unfortunately, it's nothing close to sturdy now. Something appears to have sliced through the sheepskin on the back, and the white fleece is more... well, red. Very red.]
Um... I can pay you. I don't want him to know about it, though! It's supposed to be a surprise...

[It's a good thing Ringabel doesn't know what Terra's thinking. He knows he isn't invincible, of course he does. But being in a position where he needed saving was just weird. At Terra's last words, he at least tries to be jovial.]
If I get sick of these lovely nurses, I suppose I could swap them out for bikini-clad women. I suppose.
[filtered;]
[True to his word , a moment later the video snaps on, but mostly it's Terra's hand and a partially completed map. After a bit of low conversation, the video wobbles again, this time held by Dorumon.]
There's something to be said for both nurses and bikini clad women. You were headed up this way, yes?
[North of the forest and west of Star City. He taps the map, between HospiTown and the castle.]
I heard there's a giant tree right about here, can you confirm that?
[This at least won't take a whole lot of effort for a tired, resting man.]
[filtered;]
Choices, choices.
[Jest aside, he focuses, distinctly remembering that tree. It was too huge to miss.]
Yes. I would say that directly northwest of that tree, perhaps... half a day's walk at a leisurely pace... around 10 miles, given the fact it's distinctly uphill... is Myotismon's castle. Northeast of Myotismon's castle, about a mile out, is two small islands with another- though smaller castle situated upon the Northmost one. I noted two bridges which appeared to be in working order to link these islands to the mainland. These islands are not to be confused with a larger one directly east from Myotismon's castle, which appears to bear nothing.
[Perhaps Terra's a little surprised with Ringabel's attention to detail. But he's still looking in deep thought. What else?]
Ah, yes. There is a third castle which appears to be on a higher level than what we have discussed. I've seen a place of it's like in my world before -- a veritable fortress, seemingly built into the mountains upon which it stands. Presumably one would gain access to said fortress by circling back around the beach north of a settlement known as Star City and proceeding east from there. One should assume, anyway.
[Boy, would Grandship make this easier. He almost looks distracted for a moment, as he takes the time to mourn his airship.]
[filtered;]
Unfortunate at the lack of resources. Carefully a sigil of warning is etched over Myotismon's castle; it's best to mark it as dangerous just in case.]
So there are three islands total, two small ones and a larger one? Only the small ones have bridges?
[Bridge-marks are added, but only to the smaller ones. First things first.]
... Eventually we'll have aerial travel, which'll make general surveys easier. If I get to head that way I'll check out this ... fortress castle myself, see what's there. Were there any signs of this 'Digital Hazard' you mentioned anywhere else?
