[More things he needs to learn. It feels like every time he knocks one off the list, three more take its place, but at least he is learning. Maybe everyone else has heard of Discord, and it'll be more secure to talk there. As long as he's the only one behind, that's fine - he'll just work harder to catch up and be more careful in the interim.]
[He just blinks at Leo's question. On the one hand, he'd thought it'd have been obvious; on the other hand, Leo hadn't been here when Huvrye had first arrived, and he'd gotten his crash course on modern-for-this-world communication elsewhere.]
Nope. No internet, no computers, no phones like this. [He gestures at his phone.] We mostly used alchemy, and radio if we needed a hard line for any reason.
[He holds up a hand, palm out, and an alchemical array glows red above his palm, concentric circles and lettering forming neatly in the air. It's a partial array - there's no connection point, no intended recipient - but that doesn't matter when it's meant to be an example. He's not about to make a functional array with no end point, because that's a security nightmare waiting to happen and he's not going to take the risk of someone (either someone from his world who'd arrived unbeknownst to him or a person with compatible powers) connecting when he's not aware of it.]
