[So getting used to this new kind of technology was certainly an… experience. He still isn’t really comfortable with the idea of a video recording of himself, and even an instantaneous voice transmission is beyond the level of tech he’s accustomed to so text is the way to go. Unfortunately, he’s using this like some sort of magical LinkedIn, so it’s a very formal letter style he’s got going on.]

Hello,

My name is Jayce Talis. I’ve noticed there’s a few buildings here that seem to be laboratories. If any have availability to lend a room or two, I have research and device development I would like to work on. Ideally if there’s any access to a forge of some sort, that would be preferred, but not required. I have a personal reference if necessary to demonstrate good character.

[He notably does not say anywhere that there will probably be explosions.]

Thank you for your time.

Maybe it still can. After we save Runeterra.

[He doesn't know. He's so at odds with himself on where he stands with the Council— wanting to resign, wanting to stay on to finish what he started, finish what so many of them have tried to start... It would be a long, tedious journey down political lanes that he’s not even good at. And infuriatingly enough, without Silco… he doesn’t know if it would stick, on Zaun’s side. This rat of a man made himself vital, the vision incarnate with passion and planning. Does anyone else down there even feel that way, anymore? Or do they just want revenge, like Jayce assumed?

But what is Jayce if not hopeful?]

I don't know my fate any more than the rest of us. I don't know if I can help. But if I can try, I will.

Maybe you all can.

[ It's not pointed, it's a reminder. Silco doesn't have a choice or a future. No matter what happens here, he's not returning. He's not coming back.

He's dead. It's up to the rest of them now. ]

I will hold you to that. Don't think just because I won't come back with the rest of you that I won't make sure of it.

You can't even make a promise to help go without sounding threatening, can you?

[zauneyete]

It is my natural tone. It's not my fault we Zaunites have a certain way about us.

[ IT IS NOT ALL ZAUNITES silco's just a dramatic bitch ]

Do you know how insufferable it would be if I started half my sentences with "as a Piltovian" to excuse some weird habit I had?

[zauneyete]

I would stop talking to you altogether.

Allow us trenchers our little quirks, though, hm?

[hexcope]

In that case, as a Piltovian...

[zauneyete]

Good day, councilor.
