Now that Nina knows this, no one is safe. Well, okay, not true, because she's still got to get the hang of it. You, the viewer, are once again treated to a vision of... the Aid Station wall.

Nina: "Where's the camera again?"
John, her long-suffering patient who isn't suffering as much as he is laughing at her: "On the corner, there."
Nina: "But that means I have to hold my wrist like--" Abruptly, the picture changes and now Nina's squarely in view, "--oh yes, you're right. That's a better idea."
John: "...so are you gonna say something or?"
Nina: "Oh Saints, is it recording already? Blast--"

Bright smile is go! ]

Hello, everyone! If we haven't met yet, I'm Nina Zenik.

There are so many of us here from so many different places. It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly two months, and now more of us are coming. I’m not used to making announcements like this [ some noise from beside her, Nina looks toward John and corrects: ] -- or, posts? Apparently they’re called posts. -- but even some the Adament crew I’ve spoken to are interested in my questions, so they’ve assured me they don’t mind if I - post - with this.

So tell us - what’s it like where you’re from? What are the legends that are most popular? What are the courtship practices? [ She’s absolutely not crafting this whole post because she’s searching for ideas on this, nope. ] Are you one of those of us have been fighting a war -- excuse the question if it’s rude, there just do seem to be a lot of us. I’d ask you to talk about your favorite foods instead, but that might be more depressing than helpful. Oh - here’s one: If you’re from an Earth, how do you know it’s a different Earth than all the other Earths? And if not, does your planet have a name or is mine the only one that doesn't?

[ They sound more organized than volcra, but still not quite... human, for lack of a better word. His description of creatures out of a legend is more than justified, as is the use of the word creatures. Not human, or able to be reasoned with in human terms -- it's always more than a war when one side has such an imbalance. Fjerda, for example, doesn't just want to defeat Ravka; they won't be satisfied until all Grisha are dead.

But this sounds like the sort of logic that can not be fully understood, or reasoned with, and Nina is firmly on the side of people who want to survive. ]

...well, I've lead us to a dire topic and no mistake. You have quite a fight on your hands. I hope you come through it, once you return to it. This says your name is Jon -- is that your name? Apparently people don't always put their real names on this thing.
