Time: Some reasonable time in the evening

Good evening. My name is Figue. If you've made the acquaintance of Ringo, you can consider me as something like her sister.

I would like to put forth an offer and a question:

Firstly, I have noticed several guests have encountered difficulty with making use of the network. As an AI, I would be happy to offer instruction or answer any questions they might have.

Secondly, I would like to compile a list of those who possess either healing abilities or medical expertise. In the event of a problem, I'd like to pin this list so that those who have newly arrived will know who to contact first.

... Also, if Ringo has caused you any trouble, please let me know. I know she can be a bit of a handful.

Thank you for your time.

Welcome! It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Figue. I am Gale, wizard of Waterdeep. I hope you've found the hotel to be to your liking thus far!

Your offer of aid is very much appreciated; many of us are from worlds where this level of technology has not yet been so much as dreamed of, and while efforts have been made to learn, I am certain there is a great deal more to it than simply learning to type accurately. I'm told that practice will assist with speed, but it's been brought to my attention that these devices of ours can be used for more than simply exchanging messages with one another.

While I would not consider myself a medical expert, I do know a great deal about magic and have some practical first-aid skills in addition to some skill in alchemy. At the very least, should someone be in need of them, I am able to provide healing potions, antidotes and other tinctures.

It's a pleasure to meet you as well, Gale. The hotel has been unusual, but I've been looking forward to witnessing more of it myself.
But wonderful! I'll add your name to the list.
I do intend to have my offer be at no charge, of course, and I'd be happy to assist with further usage of the device but I'd be curious to know... are your skills in potions and antidotes able to be taught or are they something selective to wizards?

[netherese]

There's a tremendous amount to explore! I can't imagine we've even scratched the surface of what it has to offer, at this point in time.

Potion-making can certainly be taught, so long as one has the dedication required to learn. It is a practical skill, rather than strictly magical, but I do find they go quite neatly hand-in-hand at times. Are you looking to learn?

[refiguered]

If that's alright.
I think it could very useful in a great many events, after all.
And it would give you less work to do as well.

[netherese]

Indeed, I would be happy to teach you! Learning is always a worthy endeavor, and as you say, it will be quite useful. There's a great deal to be said for being able to aid oneself and others in a pinch. Truly, it would be my pleasure, Miss Figue.

[refiguered]

Thank you. I appreciate you being willing to take the time to teach me!

[netherese]

It would be an honor to do so! There is nothing in this world or any other that I admire more than the desire to learn.

[refiguered]

I think the willingness to help others less fortunate would take precedence for me.
However, the willingness to learn would not be far behind it.

[netherese]

That one is rather high on my list, as well. You certainly have your priorities in order!

[refiguered]

I do try, at this point.

[netherese]

An admirable trait, to be certain. When you're a bit more settled, let me know when is convenient for you, and we can go about setting up lessons.
