[She waves when the camera comes on, immediately pointing downwards to indicate where the subtitles will be as she signs. Her hands start to move, gently, signing her words. The text appears, as it does, at the bottom.]

Greetings, fellow travellers. Or prisoners. Not really sure which we are. Possibly both.

[A slight pause]

I mean, this also seems fairly close to a penal battalion, but that's more philosophy than I'd like today. But in any event, I'm General Amaya, soldier of Katolis, for those who don't know me. As a Knight of the Realm, I'm meant to serve on the front line, as you may have guessed. Which is significantly more difficult without my armor.

[She gestures at tunic she's wearing, which she'd picked up on the last mission.]

And I'm going to apologize in advance for my...take charge nature during missions. I promise that I do know what I'm doing, but I also promise I'll listen to reason when I'm dealing with things I don't know. Which, around here, is a lot.

[She offers a kind smile, pulling her shield and sword into view.]

And while these are my main offence and defence - I'm feeling pretty naked out there - is there anybody on board who can forge armour? I'm not sure how I could repay the favour right now, but it'd definitely be at least a few owed.

Raptor pops on, then bow, "Um, if you have the ceramics and spandex I can build a suit. I think there is even the right tools to get it properly powered. I just don't have the raw materials here, and I'm pretty sure if I started taking the train apart people would get angry."

[She listens to all that, and has...no idea what to make out of either of it. She frowns.]

Ceramics...like the cups? And how do you...power them?

"No, like my skin. She pokes her face a bit at that. Stronger than steel and less prone to melting..."

She then stops and flails, then bows, "You wanted a normal old knights and dragons suit, didn't you? Not powered armor. If you get me the steel I can hammer that out, that's easy. I'm sorry, I'm so used to dealing with powered armor and such for starship repair."

She shrugged, extensively.

Do I? I'm a little bit limited by not knowing the technology - just...how badly outdated am I? Compared to that
