Oh, the squinting that will be had! If they find any real merchants along the way he's going to be tempted to ask how much it would cost to get a pair for the both of them. A seasoned soldier Stratos may be but Jim's visited dozens of planets across the galaxy and knows a thing or two about preparing for Away Missions (even if his department heads like to imply otherwise on occasion).
The captain very nearly makes a smart remark back about what kind of escorts Stratos has been interacting with but the Look the elder Caelus gives him shuts him up on the spot. It is important to pay attention, in any case. The details may not come up but if they do nothing will look worse than fumbling for a half remembered lie.
It takes Jim several moments to catch up to Stratos once they've made their ways outside. Dozens of planets he may have seen but redwood sized fungi are definitely a new one on him. He has so many questions but almost no language skills on where to start. Not to mention an awareness that they need to get a move on. Even still, when he turns to Stratos the man is stunned to silence himself.
Given the care about ash in the air Jim's not at all surprised to see a volcano off in the distance. Indeed he's almost more interested in the ocean and the strange lands that lie beyond that not a damn soul seems to know hardly anything about if the vague maps he's seen are any indication of the Tamriellic knowledge of their own globe.
Jim doesn't know the Cyrodillic term for a volcano though.
"Never seen one before?" Pointing upward. "A volcano. Spitting fire mountain. Whatever the word is."
I catch myself using Discord markups so often doing these
