Greetings, citizens and people of Gaia.
As you know, over the past year many people and places from strange and distant lands have shown up in Gaia. Not only that, but all too often Gaia has been besieged by monsters. We have gained and lost so much... All this is the work of a man called Garland. He himself is from another world, a world called Terra, and it is his intention to merge the two worlds so that Gaia will become Terra.
Don't worry. We won't let that happen. I have a plan to find and stop Garland, but I need your help.
We have been unable to locate Garland anywhere on Gaia. It is my belief that he is currently hiding out on Terra. There is a way to get to Terra from this world, but it's not easy. First, we have to take the four elemental mirrors into the Earth, Fire, Wind and Water Shrines, and place them back where they belong simultaneously. Once we've done that, the gateway to Terra will open at the Shimmering Island, and we can fly in on an airship.
I have the mirrors and I'll provide the airships to take volunteers to the shrines and into Terra. But first, I need volunteers. You must be able to come to Lindblum by July 31st. We set off at the beginning of August. It will be a dangerous trip. The shrines are full of obstacles, and probably guarded by fierce monsters. We don't even know if there is anything left of Terra after it was destroyed. That's why I need a variety of capable fighters, healers and mages. This isn't grunt work. This is a mission vital to Gaia's future - and to the future of the Sky People.
We must prove equal to this task.
[ooc: You guessed it: this is the official IC sign-up post for the Shrines and Traveling to Terra events. If you have already signed up OOCly, please have your characters respond here! If you haven't, no problem - reply anyway, then go here to sign up. We still need more people! In fact, we're dropping the earlier restrictions we made: you're free to sign up as many characters as you like, and it's fine to have more than one character from the same canon too.
Signing up doesn't guarantee that you'll get picked, by the way, although we'll try to use as many people as possible. Regent Cid will be posting again in roughly a week to announce who is doing what.]

I can heal, and fix armor, and take care of chocobos, and I can cook - I want to help.

Date: 2010-07-19 08:45 pm (UTC)And then he suddenly steels himself, remembering everything Garland is responsible for and everything everyone gave up to protect this world and stepping forward. For a second, he almost seems confident (this is a very very rare thing. And just as rarely a good thing).]
I-
[He falters for a second and then shakes his head and balls his fists]
-I'm going. I've been there before and I'm- I'm really really powerful and-
-and if that's okay.

Date: 2010-07-21 06:46 pm (UTC)Hmm... I'm sorry, Zidane, but it sounds like you might have to sit this one out. Take care of Garnet.

Don't worry. I'm well enough to sneak out of this castle.
