[ the video comes first!

heine films from where he's sitting on top of a mailbox on a street corner. it's a slow pan across an empty intersection just northeast of the bank—the bank building itself is visible, as a landmark for where he is, but he also makes a point of filming as much down each street as he can manage. master film director heine is not, but at least he manages to pick out a few identifying storefronts so people can triangulate themselves!

there's no talking, or really any sound at all (which for heine is still one of the worst parts of this place). once he's filmed enough that he thinks the location has been conveyed, the video cuts off.

when he uploads it, it's with a text accompaniment: ]


let me get this out of the way first: i'm not trying to die
and i also don't want to kill anyone
[ today, anyway! ]


but if you're also here without the weapons you're used to
don't want to get stuck with your thumb up your ass if shit goes wrong
and think you could use a good fight to keep your skills sharp

then hopefully you can figure out from the video where to go
if you can't then
[ he is judging you slightly ] ask for directions



rules:
1) i have knives but if you want to use something else that's on you
2) no sparring bullshit, we fight like we mean it
3) i'll go easy if you need but don't ask me to teach you

[He is wondering if Heine has kitchen knives or something more suitable for combat but he expects that's an answer he'll get when he finds him.]

That makes sense, if disarming us is the point. There's not a single blacksmith in the city to procure most weaponry.

I'm about fifteen minutes from your location if you expect me to come find you now.

Then I can meet you in an hour.

[As his schedule is tremendously flexible, and he needs to pivot his focus for a while to something besides this opaque city mystery. Testing his own adaptability in case a fight is necessary is a productive use of time.]
