No, it's... the Viren that's here? He's pretty different, like he's changed- or- not just the dragon stuff. You know? Uh... how do I explain this- [he grumbles at himself on the other end of the line before considering with a distant snap of fingers through the receiver]

He doesn't know everything that happens, back home. Like, he came here before some... stuff. [like dying!]

Soooo, he doesn't know everything he ends up doing. Later. For him. But I know, I already did that.. part? [just say "I'm from the future", Soren, it's much simpler than this rambling]
