[At first what Dax is saying is completely incomprehensible--a good ear for languages may notice it's the same language the worker units are speaking. Dax has some sort of device in his hand, though, and after fiddling with it a little eventually his words become understandable to anyone listening:]

--Testing, testing--aha, there we are. Alright--well, to get this out of the way for our new residents, I'm Dax, and I'm an administrator of the Tower. Anyway, as you may have noticed, we're having a few minor malfunctions when it comes to our usual translation process which wasn't helped by having to divert all that power to quarantining and scrubbing radiation. I'm using a portable device to translate this to all of you and to translate any of your responses, but it's a bit fussy.

We should have everything fixed within a day or two, however! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

[He sounds just a bit nervous about the prospect of Q&A, though. It's as if these situations often bring long discussions and arguments, or something.]

*For once, he's glad that they have all the powerful technology they seem to have. Surely, it's used to protect them, too.*

...I see. So taking someone from a world is very dangerous...

Yes, the process is complicated and the technology is relatively new. We have been successfully saving more people than we were originally.

*It's in this pause where he tries to figure out what to ask next that he remembers Dax was working on something.*

Don't let them kill you. You're our only host that acts like one. ...I appreciate that. Thank you for respecting us, Dax. And, ah...I apologize for my threat last month. I wasn't in my right mind.

The situation last month was hardly a normal one; I wouldn't hold that sort of thing against any of you. As for not dying, I do my best.
