Hi everyone! I'm Elliot, it's nice to meet you all even if this isn't where you wanna be right now. Sorry about that. I teach music and I'm a healer with Coven infirmary training. So if you need either of those things, just lemme know!

Anyway, um, I had a question. What's music like where you're from? Or what kind of music do you like? There's so many people from different places, I feel like I'm always finding out something new and I'd like to learn as much as I can.

Oh- I'll start. I'm from Erebonia and we have a lot of classical music - stuff with lutes, violins, piano, etc. Operas are pretty popular too, though in the last few years Northern rock - or I guess just rock, has been spreading! Oh, and radio's really big. I still miss listening to my favorite radio show honestly...

S-Sorry, didn't mean to ramble. What about you guys?

Have you composed any music while you're here? Is it more like the music you're used to back home, or more like the stuff you hear in Aefenglom?

[fiddlestick]

I have! That's a good question...I feel it's been a mix? The style here isn't too different from what I'm used to, so it's hard to tell.

[sneaksweet]

Guess that's fair. It's pretty far from what I'm used to back home.

[fiddlestick]

I'd imagine so, if you're used to rock and pop...

We're trying to figure out how to bring electric instruments here so rock can exist here. But it's been going slow, I'm afraid.

[sneaksweet]

Is there a lot of electricity? I have seen much of that.

[fiddlestick]

Electricity isn't the problem. We can use lightning magic to supply energy.

It's more...we have a lot of musician mirrorbound, but no instrument makers. None of us have blueprints for making electric guitars or electric keyboards. So the best we can do is tell native instrument makers what we remember about those instruments and hope they can figure the rest out.

It's like trying to instruct someone whose never seen a car how to build one when all you've done is drive one.
