[The video clicks on, and there isn't much to see really...
... Just a knight, passed out in one of the streets, and he looks a mess. Blood and sand splattered all over him, staining the red and yellow tunic and congealed between the links of chain mail. Not that much of it seems to be his, minus the wound on his face, running down his cheek.
Eventually though, he moves a little, pushing his head and shoulders up, coughing for a moment as he spits up more blood. Slow and sluggish, either from tiredness, or how heavy the chain mail is, probably all of it. The device is clutched in his hand, but he doesn't seem to take much notice of it, or that it's recording until he tries to push up onto his knees and stares at it.]
What -- ?
[he drops it and it shuts off.]

Are you alright?

Whose there?

What devilry is this?
Re: video

it doesn't, and he sighed. Too damn tired for this.]
Where am I?
[he's not bothering with the 'alright' part. He's fine, as far as he's concerned.]
[Video]
Hello? [ This place needs to stop doing this to people. ] Do you need help?
[Video]
I think I'll be fine. [he grabs his sword where it had fallen beside him on the dirt, using it to force himself up onto his feet.] I've taken no serious injuries.
[Must not worry a lady.]
[Video]
[Video]
[he sways for a moment more before he takes a deeper breath.] Tell me, where am I?
[Video]
[Video]
... Or any place he's ever seen before.
It is a little much to take easily, and he takes a moment to wipe the blood off his mouth on the back of his hand. Thinking rapidly.]
How long have I been gone out? [Assuming she was at Kerak.]
[Video]
Gone out--? I'm not sure what you mean, sorry. I can only tell you that you've probably only just arrived. It...happens. Abruptly. [ Unfortunately. ]
[Video]
I was knocked out in the battle, Saladin's soldiers were advancing, and we rode out to meet them... [He's completely disorientated.] That's the last thing that happened. [before here.]
[Video]
Because she knows enough history to know that Saladin was someone from...very early. ] This is like a different world.
[Video]
... Have I died? [and gone too purgatory? Because this couldn't be heaven, but it wasn't as bad as Hell so far.]
[Video]
No, no. Nothing like that. [ She shakes her head. ]

Well now, it seems we have someone new. Hello there.
[
in other words, meet the resident red eyed shadow troll Balian.]video
What creature of hell are you?
video
Isn't it rude to stare? I'm not from hell but a creature is a good way to describe me. But I'm not the issue here. How are you doing?
video
So it might be rude, but he just keeps staring. He doesn't care if it is.]
Well enough. [he's not saying any more.] Tell me where I am then, creature.
video
This is a place called Nesresa....in Russia, I believe. More than likely far away from where you were, hum?
video/semi-action;
Oi, mister, you alright? Where are you?
video/semi-action;
[said as he spits up a bit of blood.]
I've no idea where I am. Just that it isn't the Holy Land.
video/semi-action;
Try the motherland. Russia. A town called Nesreca.
What's around you though?
video/semi-action;
[Balian blinks slowly. It's as close as he gets to shock.] Russia? How did -- [he stares around him some more, then at himself. He was hardly dressed for Russia. In fact, nothing at all he really sees around him makes sense. He still looked like he'd been dragged from battle. Not all the way to Russia. Battle field robbers wouldn't leave as good chain mail as this untouched.]
Houses, what appears to be a forest of some kind... [it's the best he can do, seeing as he can't recognise a single thing, but he has the sense to sweep the video around him.]
video/semi-action;
As to how... Let's just say a little ghost girl who gives you a number has a sick sense of humor.
