mooglenet_backup[With the drumming of translucent pearl hued raindrops falling against her crimson hat and shoulders, Freya looked as if she was quite drenched as she flicked on the camera mode. It seems to be as stormy as ever within Burmecia, a fact that seems to be always true when regarding that gloomy nation. Gazing up towards the ominous gray clouds above, the dragoon knight let out a sigh.]
I take my leave from Burmecia, once more but only for a brief errand.
Delita-[Glancing back towards the camera now.] Are you well? If you've arrive in Lindblum, contact me. As I have promised, I shall met you there.
[Leaning in to turn off the device, Freya hesitates momentarily to do so in favor of stating a few choice words to the battle weary public.]
...Value your lives more than you've done before for without Death, Life becomes pointless.

Date: 2010-01-27 12:39 am (UTC)You can cage a bird but it will always seek a way to escape.
[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:48 am (UTC)I have been accidentally rescued, have escaped only to be re-captured, and have been 'released' because a rescue was imminent. I have endured experiments and tests that can only be likened to torture because of the whims of two madmen. The cage of science has been broken.
But the cage the experiences, especially the most recent, have left on my mind, my heart, and my spirit? Those are not so easy to break. It is often hard to tell that the bars are even there.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:17 am (UTC)My species is scattered, and now that I am here, I do not know who will guard my home. If I have failed it -- failed my father, and my grandfather...
[ He's still technically a teenager, after all. ]
...Besides. I have found that far too many humans would have no qualms with what has been done to me and to others I know. There are those who would listen, friend and otherwise, but I can't get to them all.
[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:24 am (UTC)Scattered to the four winds, the same fate fell upon my kind as well. You see, a great war riddled Burmecia with despair. Many of those I once cherished as friends and family are now marked by their tombstones.
My people have suffered greatly over these few years and the wound has yet to heal.
[Let's out a sad sigh.]
Not everyone will heed your words, this is a fact of life. Some people are just incapable of understanding the difference between right and wrong. These people I consider to be ill at mind.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:36 am (UTC)My home, Cosmo Canyon, was attacked by the Gi Tribe. Many died. My father, Seto, sacrificed himself to protect the canyon, and sealed the back entrance so that they would not reach it.
...I thought him a coward, until the truth was revealed to me.
[ He sighs as well. ]
The love of advancement often seems to be the problem, in my experience.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:44 am (UTC)Be glad that the truth was exposed for you know. Some people die believing in lies but you was given a chance to know the truth.
I would be grateful for that...
[She smiles slightly.] Isn't that always the reason? The love for advancement, the selfish belief of bettering yourself or your kind over another.
This is a common issue.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:47 am (UTC)[ His tail twitches slightly. ]
And sometimes they just want to destroy. Other times they just want to 'see what will happen'.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:56 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 02:05 am (UTC)Strange, how the simplest of things or of people can be such a catalyst.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 05:56 am (UTC)Stay true and your woes will be nothing more than a memory.
[A soft laugh comes from Freya since she knows that she is a hypocrite for giving such sound advice. Especially since she barely listens to her own words anymore.]
Stay true, my friend. The woes we face do not define us, allow our actions to do so.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 03:11 pm (UTC)I feel as if getting away for a while might help, but I don't want to abandon my friends.
[ He smiles slightly and nods. ]
I am Nanaki, son of Seto.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:39 am (UTC)Good advice, if you have something to live for.
[ He should know; he's killed enough people. ]
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:49 am (UTC)Our reasons are different, our reasons why we exist. Every person has their reasons no matter how minor they seem.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:52 am (UTC)[ He pauses, and then decides he might as well back his own point up. ]
I had that problem.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:01 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:19 am (UTC)Between him, my job, and the others I work with... it's enough.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:26 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:37 am (UTC)Solitude is nice. But sometimes it's not what you need.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:38 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:44 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:52 am (UTC)...I have. I truly have but it seems as if the more I try, the more I realize my own faults as a person.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 02:03 am (UTC)[ He's so reserved he's practically anti-social and has a bit of a mean streak. He's also a Turk. He knows all about faults. ]
That doesn't mean you don't have options.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:43 am (UTC)And the lives of others, as well.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:51 am (UTC)Oh?
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:55 am (UTC)There are times when your own safety may not mean as much as that of another. But if you cannot see that now, then you may only realize it until after it is too late.
I have little experience with such things myself, at least in the more romantic sense, but there are often times when sacrifice is necessary.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:05 am (UTC)You speak of martyring yourself for the sake of others. While it is a noble creed to sacrifice your life for others, it shouldn't be the first option to partake within.
My words may seem hypocritical considering I am a knight.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:21 am (UTC)[ He chuckles. ]
Then again, there are those who would claim that, in that, I am hypocritical -- but they do not know me as well as they would think.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:29 am (UTC)[Stares at him for a moment longer with a rather skeptical gaze.]
Who are you?
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:38 am (UTC)[ He is really getting tired of all the skeptical gazes. ]
Al-Cid Margrace. And you?
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:55 am (UTC)[Stares at him a little more since she is actually trying to figure out if he is a native here or not.]
I am Lady Freya Crescent of Burmecia, a pleasure to meet you.
[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 02:06 am (UTC)You are native here, then?

Date: 2010-01-27 05:56 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2010-01-27 03:13 pm (UTC)[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-27 12:58 am (UTC)It seems that death has been placed on hold.
[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:07 am (UTC)Are you coming by airship or by other means?
Death has been eliminated thanks to that damned Tree but you know of this already.
[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:31 am (UTC)You speak the truth, yet 'tis strange to find myself alive when I should be buried.
[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-27 01:34 am (UTC)You are traveling on foot? What for?! Do you realize how lengthy such a journey is.
[ audio ]
Date: 2010-01-28 03:48 am (UTC)'Tis with gratitude that I recognize the gift that has been bestowed upon me, but I see the worry that must be bestowed unto the world.

Date: 2010-01-27 01:38 am (UTC)Even if death can be cheated here, that is all the more reason not to allow one's life or that of another to become cheapened and easily discarded. Such dismissal of consequences could lead to a callousness which can become in a sense a danger to them or to those around him.

Date: 2010-01-27 05:47 am (UTC)[voice]
Date: 2010-01-27 06:13 am (UTC)Besides, I plan to live forever, so that death thing can't be all right.
[Voice]
Date: 2010-01-27 05:04 am (UTC)Freya! It is good to hear your voice once more.
I apologize that I could not remain in Burmecia, but the departure was necessary. I hope that we cross paths again.
[Voice]
Date: 2010-01-27 05:51 am (UTC)It's good to know you are well! It's perfectly alright. I am just very glad to hear from you again. I take it that you've reunited with your friends since that dreadful day.
[Voice]
Date: 2010-01-28 12:26 am (UTC)Yes, I have...at least, most of them. One slain did return, only to fade from this world. However, another remains, and a friend thought lost returned as well. It is a far better outcome than I could have imagined.
