[ The feed turns on to show the waist down of a dark skinned female, her hands firmly placed on her hips. She's pacing around a couple of moogles, and the camera finally pans up to show Prishe, face contorted into a very fierce expression of pondering. ]

So lemme get this straight-- I'm on a planet called Gaia? And Garland's here? And there's no way to get home?


[ One of the moogles nods, and the Skyphone is handed to Prishe, though she ignores it for the most part. ] That's right, kupo!

Then I'm just gonna have to kick his ass again, huh! Later, moogles! I gotta go find Garland!


[ Her thumb brushes against the device, and the feed clicks off. ]

H-Hey! You're from Vana'diel, right? Hold on a second!



How do you know Garland? Have you been here before?

[ It's a little while before there's a response; Prishe wasn't even aware of what the Skyphone was, and it took the moogles a few more seconds to catch up to her to explain.

When she does, she tilts her head to the side, musing at Lili for a little bit. ] Kinda sounds familiar, but I'm not sure. It's not like I remember anything like that. Garland was someone I fought in the War of the Gods. [ There's a smirk, and looks more than a little devious. ] He tried to take my prize from me, so I kicked his ass.

[Terra peers at her curiously, though there's no recognition in her eyes.]

...you know Garland?

[Video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

Loud, preachy, walking tin can, right?

[Video]

[heavenslament.livejournal.com]

...yes.

[And the fact that she gives such a description instead of the Gaian one give her pause.]

Were you...were you in the war?

[captain-rusty.livejournal.com]

You know of Garland? What world are you from?

[video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

[ There's a shrug. ] Dunno. Does it matter?

[video]

[captain-rusty.livejournal.com]

It does! What other wretched worlds has Garland ruined? If you come from another world we do not know, you may have important information regarding how to defeat him!

[video]

[stfuporom.livejournal.com]

You can't just go off and fight Garland on your own. No one knows where he is.

[video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

That's why I'm gonna go find him!

[video]

[stfuporom.livejournal.com]

So you're just going to travel all of Gaia to find him. Smart.

[video]

[pastglories.livejournal.com]

Huh. Would be nice if it were that easy, y'know.

Re: [video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

Dunno why it wouldn't be, it was last time!

[video]

[pastglories.livejournal.com]

Heh. [Jecht's resisting the urge to grin. Cocky, this one. Reminds him of himself.] Lemee put it to ya this way; there's a whole world lookin' for Garland. Has been for who knows how long. If it was that easy and with that many people lookin', we'd all be plain sailin' by now.

[notathiefcole.livejournal.com]

You sure are, but we are so gonna beat Garland!

Re: [Video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

Hell yeah we are!

[Video]

[notathiefcole.livejournal.com]

He won't know what hit him.

[Video]

[theleadingman.livejournal.com]

So you've met him before. Most interesting.

[Video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

He tried to take my prize from me.

[Video]

[princessstealer.livejournal.com]

[Far be it for him to squash enthusiasm, but yeah - he doesn't want anyone getting killed.]

You know, it's not gonna be as easy as you think.

[Video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

He was a total pushover last time.

[for-cosmos.livejournal.com]

You have fought-

[The mention of Garland is what catches his attention at first. Almost everyone who knows Garland knows him because of the cycle, but with the warrior's returning memories of the previous cycle, he knows she wasn't there.

But still, there's a sense of familiarity to her. Something about the way she acts, and her appearance, tugs at something in his memories. It's broken pieces, nothing that he can really understand. He's reminded of the Empyreal Paradox. Something about Garland, and Cosmos. Something about purpose and battle. There are flashes of training and traveling, good moments and bad.

And- something about a name.

He's so shocked that the sky phone falls out of his hand.]

[ She's ignoring the tumble of the video to the ground, the bounce as it lands because she's too damn happy to see him. She's waving like crazy, and though her voice may be tinny as it comes from the speakers, it's still loud and it's still her. ] HEEEEEEEY!!! What the hell are you doing here!?

[video]

[championofwutai.livejournal.com]

You've fought Garland before? When?!

[video]

[vulgarascetic.livejournal.com]

During the war!
