As suddenly has he had come, the Viewer was gone, vanished into smoke and nothingness like some trick magician, or like he was teleporting without the flash and light of asgard beaming technology, and they were left alone, with a scant three and a half hours before their first challenge came,. Fortunately, as a Goa'uld he didn't need to partake in sleep all that often, a benefit of the symbiotic nature that he and his host shared. So while others may be tired for the coming challenges, he would be alert and ready, that much more a benefit for himself. 

"I agree," he said in response to Saber. "This competition would hardly be fair if only some know of the full rules and stakes." As Shiroe drew their attention, he walked over and grabbed a room key, his knowledge of Earth society and buildings making him go for one of the ones near the top, guessing it to be some sort of penthouse suite or the like.It wasn't like anyone else would be using it, and if they didn't like it there were a hundred other buildings to pick from. "And yes, snow is just water," he said over to Vash, climate variations something he was all too familiar with as well.

The smoke emanating from the hok'tar stung at his eyes and made him cough, if it didn't affect him as much as it might a regular human. But he still had to breathe, and that didn't help things. It drew his interest though, and he waved over to the one who had such a display of fire abilities, and apparent long life, who's name he still didn't know. "I don't believe I ever caught your name," he said casually as he stepped over. "If you'd care to join me, I was going to take the elevator to the top floor. If you can indeed fly, then it would serve as a suitable launching place, don't you think so? And it would let us get a better view of what else may be out there." He exuded smooth confidence, looking forward to what he would learn from this one.
