Right.

Now that I'm done gawking at this ... thing that allows me to communicate to other people. Somehow. I almost wish I could perform magic like this. I'm Merlin. Servant to King Arthur of Camelot. I'm also a sorcerer, something I couldn't tell other people before but that's changed. In any case, I won't bother you with the details. I was hoping someone might actually bother me with the details? Like what is going on? I'd also welcome any explanation as to how this room is lit without any torches. I certainly haven't mastered that kind of magic.

So if anyone would help me out, I'd be very grateful. I might even return the favour somehow. Just don't ask me for love spells and potions. I've had bad experiences with those and trust me, you really don't want to clean up afterwards. You really really don't.

It's a lot to take in at once, I know.

My name is Sirius Black, as I said, and I'm a wizard. I arrived here, same as you, a few months ago. Everyone who comes here is told they are fictional and, well, all I know about that is that many people here have apparently read books in which I play a role. I know you, sir, from history and legend.

[he nods, not surprised]

I knew my ... deeds would be remembered. I didn't think it would happen so quickly though.

Where I come from, your deeds happened centuries ago. But everyone still knows that Merlin was the greatest wizard of all time.

[he hesitates]

What of Arthur?

Well, he wasn't a wizard, so he's not that important to us.

But, yes, people say he was the greatest king, actually. Some think he'll return one day, even.
