'Enlightening' would lift my spirits considerably. [ Glancing up, around. ] This place moves at quite a different speed from what I am used to.

[mightthinkthat]

[ He doesn't speculate the speed he's used to. ] Well, I shall be delighted.

I'm Francis Urquhart. ImPort Ambassador to Nonah. If there's a question I can't answer, I can find someone who can.

[cantwalkwithoutit]

[ He offers his hand. ] Gold. Craftsman. [ Artisanal broom maker, his ancient, preternatural ass. ] What knowledge do you have of the means used to bring the people here?

[mightthinkthat]

[ He takes it in a politician's handshake. ] The Porter. Brings people, apparently randomly, to this world and 'gifts' us with powers. It's... possessed, it would seem, by an entity that is uncommunicative at best and tended to by the government.

[cantwalkwithoutit]

[ He prefers a politician's handshake, really. Intent but impersonal. He doesn't much care for anyone that touches him too long anymore. ]

Fascinating. And is it the machine or the entity that opens the way?

[ Nothing said of the faces he's seen, names he's heard or read since coming out here. ]

[mightthinkthat]

Open to debate. Perhaps the unique mixture of both.

[cantwalkwithoutit]

I've heard of neither such things before, as far as I know. Always interesting.

[ Perhaps a little too telling, plus that odd glance at nothing, as though the words "I can work with that" are waiting on his lips to be spoken. His eye wanders over the refreshments -- the ones with names, which still perplexes him. How will he feel if his name ever appears here? ]

You must have been here a while, to have the position you do.

[mightthinkthat]

Of course. [ But interesting doesn't get the job done, so to speak. ] Actually, I received the nomination in my first month here. Though, I have been here since last year, which I gather is about average, for an imPort.

[cantwalkwithoutit]

You must have a natural talent for it. [ An easier smile there. ] Prior experience?

[mightthinkthat]

Yes, indeed. [ Possibly he would have been more effusive if Gold was more sharing, but as he wasn't, nor was Francis ]. Some.

[cantwalkwithoutit]

Ah, understated. [ How English of you. ] My fault, I suppose. That was a little personal of me to ask.

[mightthinkthat]

A quite... natural curiosity, I'm sure.

[cantwalkwithoutit]

And I'm sure they accommodate someone with your talents quite well -- it's quite the responsibility to hold.

[mightthinkthat]

[ His eyes are glimmering with mischief. ] I'm very glad you're impressed.
