The Return of the Bard [accidental video]

[melodiesoflute.livejournal.com]

[ Water.

There was water everywhere, even upon the screen of this misplaced Skyphone.

Droplets of water slithered down his shaky palms as he thrashed about within these shallow but icy pools for a minute or so. Uncertain as to what sort of fate has befallen upon him now, the unlucky fellow paused once he recognized the swampy surroundings.]

P-Pinnacle Rocks?!

[The shock was clearly evident within the bard’s tone, even if he was barely seen within the video.]

This is—Gaia! I’m…what happened to me?

[Falling quiet for a moment or two, only the bard’s shaky breaths could be heard as he searched within the waters for his lyre. For those watching, one might notice how something amidst here. Edward looked haggard, fatigued even, almost as if he hasn’t slept for a thousand or so nights. Besides his sleepless appearance, the bard was dressed oddly within peculiar robes that possessed a neon-blue glow.

It seems that wherever Fate whisked Edward off too wasn’t a friendly one, especially since he possessed a few ugly bruises upon his wrists and hands.]

Oh, where did it go?!

[Still thrashing about within the water, Edward finally stops once he spots a glimmer of gold nearby.]

My lyre!

[He hastily snatches it out of the water.]

Thank the heavens! I hope the strings aren’t too soggy…


[ooc: Similar to Ondore's re-intro, the bard was taken to another world. But unlike Ondore...he wasn't returned to his native realm. Have fun with this FFXIII cast.]

[ When the feed begins, it finds a very somber looking Queen Garnet. She has the look to here of a bringer of bad news. Her eyes, and the space beneath them, are both darkened, a downward turn of pale lips. When she speaks, her voice is soft, even... Though not strong. ]

Citizens and friends of Alexandria. It is with much sorrow, that I must speak to you this day. Zidane Tribal, by no will of his own, has taken leave of Gaia. Where he has gone to, we cannot be certain... But pray for his safety, wherever he may be.

Thank You. [ end feed].

[after her announcement, she goes to sit quietly in her room. There, she sings their song softly to herself. She has no tears left to shed.]

[Action/Mysidia]

[Delita is slumped over Ardi, his newly red chocobo. His hair is matted with blood from where Ardi's footing was lost in the fresh stones on the mountain that gave way causing him to fall and crack his head.

He makes his way into Mysidia, dazed and even a little embarrassed. He knew then it would take some practice for Ardi to master the art of climbing mountain.]
