Claire, wait! [The video feed opens to the view of green sneakers (Layton having accidentally kicked the device laying on the ground and causing it to start), and the sound of a clipped, British accent. However, to those that know Layton, those two words, breaking in tone, sound very unlike the composed professor. The shoes shuffle back, as Layton gets a view of his surroundings.] What in the world--?

[A lengthy pause.] Another incomprehensible twist.

I must... [Layton takes a deep breath, to re-steady his voice.] I must maintain my composure. There is an answer to this mystery. ...Ah! If I am here, then did they-- [Layton steps forward and his foot bumps against the device. This time he notices it.] What is this? [A shadow passes over the feed as Layton bends over to pick it up. He holds it up and now the professor from the shoulder up is visible. He take off a note on the backside of the communicator. He eyes it critically.] Use this? Curious, very curious. A little more detail might be necessary.

Well, what use can this device have? [...] I presume it might be for communication, judging that it looks like some kind of recording device. [Layton clears his voice before speaking again.]

My name is Hershel Layton and I'm a Professor at Gressenheller University in London. I'm unsure as to why I was taken here or how, for that matter. I can get to the bottom of that later. My real concerns lies in those that might have been taken with me. If anyone knows of or seen a boy named Luke and--- [He almost says Claire's name but pushes down the urge with another deep breath. She's gone, Hershel, you need to focus on the present.]---anyone else from London, I would be deeply grateful if you told me. If it's possible, I'd like to get a message down to my office at Gressenheller as well.

It's for Flora Reinhold. If you could tell her I'm terribly sorry for being late [again], that would be helpful. I don't want to worry her too much, as I expect I'll be held up for a while. [With a small smile, Layton manages to find the button that cuts the feed.]
