[A tall man with a forelock of white hair and short cut hair faces the viewer. His helmet patterned in black and white is tucked under his arm, it matches his armor. His expression is neutral and his voice when it breaks the silence is calm and measured.]

Before I tell you anything, take a second and breathe. [He waits with his eyes shut for a moment to pass and continues.]

There's no way gentle way to tell you what happened. I'll stick to the facts. You've been rescued from a space called the Dream Width. We don't know what causes us to come here or why, but this effects all timelines and realities. Whatever magic or technology that worked before likely doesn't now. We're investigating why that happens.

You and whoever else are rescued today will be assisted by the people of the Curti Center. Please treat them with courtesy. You'll be able to get some answers at the center but anything about your world and what's happening to it...those will have to go unanswered. [He dips his head briefly, his voice gentle.]

I wish I could tell you better news. [Shiro raises his head up, straightening as he stares directly into the screen and thus by design directly at the viewer.] Remember, you're not the first to arrive. People like you are already here and we'll help you as best as we can.

I know this is confusing and stressful. Please take the rest of the ride to recover and prepare. Get some sleep if you need it.
