[The video feed is a bit unsteady, at first. When it stabilizes, it shows a very winded Terra pausing for breath. She winces as she reaches up to shake the sand out of her hair, not having had time to heal herself just yet. When she's able to speak, her words come out in a rush.]

I was out training in the desert, when I saw a large creature lingering near the myrrh tree...a sandhorse. When I went closer to investigate, it attacked...and it's a lot stronger than I remember those being. I just barely managed to teleport away.

[She pauses after brushing away more sand, frowning.]

Something about this isn't right. I'd like to return. That tree is important, isn't it?

...seriously? One of those things managed to do a number on you? They're not that strong! Maybe, I dunno, they have a bigger, meaner buddy?

[She's somehow recording this while balancing more plates than she really should on her arms. And not doing too poorly. But maybe she shouldn't be using the phone at work.]

[Terra's noticing that.]

It's a lot stronger than I remember them being. I--Relm, maybe you should talk to me after you're done with those. I wouldn't want you to drop anything.

Nah, I'm goo-

[A CUSTOMER DROPPED A PEICE OF CAKE ON THE FLOOR. RELM SLIPS.

She manages to catch herself and not drop any of the plates but the phone falls out of her hands and onto the floor.]

Um- I'm okay! I'll call when my shift's over!

[Terra, relieved that Relm's fine, lets out a breath she didn't realize she was holding.]

Okay, Relm.
