[ The video opens with Loki sitting on the remains of what likely was once the wall of a building, golden, horned helmet in his laps and leaning over it with his hands clasped and his forearms resting on said helmet.

Loki blinks twice. ]

Greetings.

[ A pause, then a short, seemingly a little flustered chuckle and he leans back out of his position a little before going on. ]

I have only met a few of you so far and so I- I thought it to be about time to introduce myself at last.

[ He leans back enough to give the helmet in his lap a pat with one of his hands. ]

I am Loki. And if your home realm is one of those that is familiar to this name by virtue of certain mythologies: Not that one. Though I may have inspired those tales in the version of Midgard I have come to know. But let's not dwell on that.

[ Offering a wide, friendly smile to the camera, Loki leans back forward, arms resting on the helmet once more. ]

Actually, I have already been here for some time now and I have made myself familiar with our situation and what is expected of us. Being Asgardian and adept at sorcery, I believe I may be of good use regarding our endeavor to aid our hosts. Though I also believe our goal could be achieved more effectively if we had the means to quickly move to other planets and back.

Which is what I want to propose to all of you here and today. My people have been traveling the galaxy freely for millennia, moving from one planet to the other in mere moments. The technology and magic behind it is relatively simple by Asgardian standards and I am convinced we can recreate it here. For this cause I would be interested to meet those of you proficient in magic as well as all skilled engineers interesting in taking on this task.

[ Loki listens to this young man's words, nodding slowly when appropriate and more obvious and understanding towards the end. ]

Yes, I can see that. I am sorry to hear you were kept away from your home this long.

[ He pauses with a calculated exhale. ]

Once the Bifrost is set up and working, we will find out just how detached this galaxy is from those we are familiar with. Building those connections can only work in our favor. And that of the Agrii, I'm sure.

It's alright. Some really good things happened here, so it's not all bad.

[Even if he has faith that he and Keith would have gotten together one day back home, it would have likely taken a hell of a lot longer.]

Bifrost? What's that exactly? A way to travel, I'm guessing?

Basically. It transports you from one place in the galaxy to another in mere moments. Those of Asgard haven't bothered with space ships for millennia.

Having that ability here clearly would be very helpful for us.

Like a wormhole, then. I'm familiar with those, so I'm guessing they work in the same way. The technology and space travel of my planet definitely hadn't gotten anywhere close to being able to do that, but where I got thrown into was, well, definitely a lot more advanced.

[Man, he misses the castle ship.]

Yeah, definitely. It being able to be a bridge between here and our worlds would be great, though there's the issue of that this seems to be a whole different dimension. So I'm not sure if the Bifrost would solve that issue, or just bring us to other galaxies in this dimension.

It may, in fact, not do that. The Bifrost as I know it has only ever been used to travel within one galaxy. Traversing between different one may be its limit.

And yet we may not be needing that. Not if our main agenda remains rebuilding this planet. Finding allies and means to acquire necessary resources for that task is more the goal we are to aim for.

Right, that's pretty important. This planet isn't exactly teeming with safety and tons of resources as it is. The city's a decent deal better than it was when we first got here, but we've still got a heck of a ways to go. If we can find another place to get resources from, people to trade with for other things we need... Yep. Definitely a huge step in getting things built up here more.

I am glad we agree on that. Rebuilding alone is tedious as it is, but without being able to acquire what is needed or find the right assistance it can be near impossible. At least we can team up and work together to achieve those goals.

Yup!

[Yeah, he definitely likes this Loki. A++.]

How've you been settling in so far?

So far I have no complaints to make, thank you for asking.

[ Just being pleasant. ]

I still have to decide on a place to stay for the time being, but that is a minor issue.

If you need any help, you can ask me! Me and my fiancé are staying in an old hotel, to give you an example of what might work. It ain't exactly luxury, but it's a roof over our heads. Honestly, we're thinking of building our own place, but that's definitely a heck of a project.
