Dear Laura,
I was just recently hatched and the Hand keeps trying to drag me into the elevator so I can learn English. I keep trying to tell her that I don't want to go into the elevator because I already speak fine, but all that comes out is gibberish and then the Hand continues to drag me into the elevator. I know that now I have to go to the bottom floor of the Norn Meso and push the blue button to learn English vocabulary, but I don't want to be dragged into the elevator. What do I do?

Dear Annoyed Gaius,
I think it's completely understandable that you're content with your vocabulary, as it's all you've ever known. However, much time has passed since Geats were first created, and it's unlikely that the Hand has a good grasp of Zander Latin. Maybe this is the ideal opportunity for you to embrace a more modern dialect. Not only would this allow you to communicate better and make new friends, but learning a second language will surely set you apart intellectually from your fellow Ark dwellers, which can only be a plus! Think of all the ladies you'd impress, including a certain Gaia who lives on the Bridge... Still feel like avoiding that elevator?
