...futile.

[Kain glares harshly into the screen.]

What use were our actions in the cycles of war, if that threat was destined to be reborn again? Will defeating Chaos now make any difference? Was it all in vain?

[Angry dragoon sounds especially angry by the end of that. Then his tone shifts to be much lighter by the time he switches it to a private transmission.]

[Private; Reis]

...I would see you, as soon as you're willing.

[The warrior looks worn out but solemn. It's difficult to explain what exactly happened at the Chaos Shrine- especially because he might be the only one who really understood what Garland was doing.]

Lufene is a threat no longer. However, Garland... or perhaps I should say Chaos... escaped us. He was nearly defeated, but four elemental fiends [and there's a pause here] Lich, Marilith, Kraken, and Tiamat... appeared before he could be finished, and transformed him into Chaos, then disappeared.

Chaos and Garland are one. Once, he created a cycle, where he was sent to the past by the four fiends, and became Chaos... only to send the fiends into the future. This cycle brought darkness to the world, and to the crystals. I- we- [There's a pause again, as the warrior tries to think. Some parts of the memories still aren't clear.] The warriors of light traveled into the past, to end the cycle, so that the world might be returned to its proper state.

That is the reason for Garland's transformation.

[And after one final, long pause;] I had heard that there was one of the myrrh trees present in... what was Matoya's cave. Has a drop yet been collected from it?

[Anyone could be forgiven for thinking there wasn't a forest full of the birds at the base of Mount Ordeals with how Porom's been jumping at every little sound and demanding to know if Ursula thinks it's a chocobo. Apparently, hearing that they're expected back soon only managed to make her fret more. Which is quite the achievement, considering how much she was fretting already. In fact, she's so busy wondering if non-chocobo-related sounds are chocobos that she almost manages to miss their actual return.

Almost.

It's probably a good thing that she managed to get some rest and that wearing herself out isn't an immediate danger anymore. Because, well. Doublecasting curaja before actually checking if anyone's injured.]

It's only just occurred to me, but I don't believe that we're truly gone from our world.

Queen Rydia and King Edge are here from the Blue Planet, as I am, but from a time long before my own, back when I was only a child. Yet they didn't vanish from the world at the time they were taken from. I've known them and spoken with them for years before I found myself here, and watched them age as I did. When I was taken back to the Blue Planet to complete my task, they were still there, as were all the others who were brought to Gaia.

I know - first hand - that the spell's effects on time are ...odd, at the very least. The skyphone records from long before I was brought here seem to claim that myself and my brother existed here briefly as children. But if people don't seem to vanish from the worlds they're taken from-

-it worries me a little. But if it means that I'm not letting the elder down, I'm glad.

So I've been hearing a lot of this Myrrh tree talk along with collecting a drop or two from it. Not that I have much of a connection to the this world, but I'm willing to help out if anyone needs it.

[He smirks a little]

For a small fee~

I'm in Alfitaria if anyone wants another helping hand.

[ Camera flickers on as a hand pulls away from it, the recorder filming as the ex-SOLDIER retreats from where he was asking someone manning a stand where he was. He had done a quick look over what he had on his person when he first arrived but it seemed that people were 'used' to people who didn't have a clue why they were there. As he almost walks away completely it's picked up by the person he was talking to before handed back to him. ]

You might need this. [ He looks down at the sky phone, brow arching a bit before giving her a nod. ] Thanks. [ He guesses before looking down at the sky phone and inspecting it briefly. He's sure it was on, for the most part or that's one of the moogles said when it had gone over it a little while ago before glancing around the public area he found himself in before moving away from being just repeatedly bumped into. ] I guess this happens a lot. Does anyone know what's going on here? [ Or if there's anyone he knows anywhere around there. ]

[To say that Cecil is worried for Lilisette after her message would be a grave understatement, despite his apparently calm text response. More than once he's entertained the idea of amassing a group to storm Lufene's liar and rescue Lilisette, but his kneejerk reaction is tempered by experience. Lilisette seems to know what she's doing and the risks involved, and rash action on his part is going to endanger her perhaps moreso than leaving her be. He just has to trust her judgement and hope she'll be safe.

If nothing else, he's impressed by her courage. So he'll honour her wishes and let her stay with Lufene, despite every part of him wanting to rush to her aid. He can't quite disguise his worry, but he's mostly as calm and measured as possible when he makes this video post.]


I bring grave news. A trusted ally has managed to infiltrate the Chaos Shrine. From what information she has gained from Lufene there, Garland knows we are planning an attack. Now we lack the element of surprise, we must double our efforts in preparation for what is to come.

[Cecil sits back in his chair, a troubled frown crossing his expression.] I don't know how Garland obtained this information, when we've taken all measures to keep it secret. If anyone can shed any light on the matter... I believe it is vital we get to the bottom of this.

[ Prishe is weaving through the crowds, Skyphone in hand, mission on her mind. He was here, and she was going to find him before he really got into trouble. Thing was, the place was pretty big and she was getting distracted fairly easily by everything around her.

She was getting snippets of memories of another world, a giant market place in a large city -- but as soon as they came, they were gone, and her curiosity with it.

At any rate, she's looking for the Warrior of Light, or anyone who might be with him. ]

[While waiting for Porom and Warrior of Light to arrive, Ceodore and Ursula are spending time at the beach, using impending guests as an excuse to put off more business-based matters. The princess seems content where she's at, laying on a blanket and asleep as best the princeling can tell. For his part, he's in a light shirt and shorts, playing with their puppy who's aggressively trying to yank a stick out of Ceodore's hands.

Once Ceodore frees the stick from puppy teeth he throws it down the beach and the pup bounds off after it, more bouncing than running. But the little guy is easily distracted, stopping midway to bark at Ursula. Once the barking fails to rouse her, face licking commences.]

You know, I don't think she's going to like that.

[Sorry to interrupt your fretting over Leonora, Porom. Really. But someone else is worried about you, and has a question to ask.]

[Grey, deadened wasteland, as far as the eye can see. The camera shows the midst of a huge battlefield, littered with long-dead bodies and fallen war machines. In the distance there are ruins of a whole city: derelict skeletons of buildings that have all been long abandoned and fallen into disrepair. In the midst of it all is a lone paladin, taking in the devastation around him as the camera grows closer.]

Here's your Sky Phone, kupo! Need help with how to use it?

[Cecil catches sight of the speaker and reaches to take the phone from the little creature. He shakes his head.]

That won't be necessary, thank you. You're free to leave. This is no place for a...

--Moogle, kupo! Thanks, mister. This place gives me the creeps...

[The camera jerks as Cecil picks up the phone and it moves to his height, then it re-focuses on his face as he tries to remember the phone's functions. While his unnerving surroundings certainly concern him, there are two people he needs to find as soon as possible.]

I'm looking for my family. Their names are Ceodore and Rosa. I'd be grateful if anyone could tell me their whereabouts, and if they're safe.

[The video feed is a bit unsteady, at first. When it stabilizes, it shows a very winded Terra pausing for breath. She winces as she reaches up to shake the sand out of her hair, not having had time to heal herself just yet. When she's able to speak, her words come out in a rush.]

I was out training in the desert, when I saw a large creature lingering near the myrrh tree...a sandhorse. When I went closer to investigate, it attacked...and it's a lot stronger than I remember those being. I just barely managed to teleport away.

[She pauses after brushing away more sand, frowning.]

Something about this isn't right. I'd like to return. That tree is important, isn't it?

[The moogle had come and gone. They whole time they had conversed it had looked around nervously, as if it expected something to jump out of the grass at any moment. As soon as he had looked away to inspect the sky phone, the moogle had dashed away. This left him alone in a plain that seemed to continue on forever. No matter where he looked he could see nothing but grass. What had the creature been so afraid of facing?]

Excuse me. [He felt strange speaking into the device, but the moogle had assured him that there were others out there--that they could somehow hear him.] If I could have but a moment of your time.

[He sighs, his hat down low over his eyes.] My name is Ingus. I am a knight of Sasune.

[One moment he had been training his knights, and the next he had woken up in a field of grass. Things like this--they didn't happen, not to people like him. Things like this happened to Luneth, who fell down holes because his head was in the clouds. But not to Ingus.]

I'd be grateful to receive some kind of understanding as to what exactly is going on. [A small scoff can be heard as he pulls back, finally catching sight of what the moogle had feared. A Sleipnir seemed to materialize amongst the grass, grazing. It was only a matter of time.

The camera pans around to briefly show a blur of it as he pockets the device. He had never taken one of these alone, but if this was some part of Eureka... that was quite the fall. The sound of crackling can be heard as Ingus sets flame to his swords. A moment later the dark horse looks up, and their eyes meet briefly before it charges.]

[Come one, come all. It's time for what Regent Cid expects to be the final council meeting before Garland is defeated. A good thing the airship is so enormous, because there are a lot of people here, all picked up the day before.

He stands up at the head of the table to greet everyone. There isn't sitting room for everyone, but the room is big enough for his audience. The meeting has now begun...]

[OOC: Sorry, guys! This is dated to earlier than this, sometime after the Matoya trip, because I was kind of fail about getting it up, obviously.]

[When the Warrior turns on his Sky Phone, he's frowning at it. Not angrily, just deep in thought. It's a moment before he shakes himself out of it and responds. Even with the awkwardness and insults at the beginning of the visit, what they spoke of there was of grave importance.]

As some of you know, in the wake of the Lunar Cry, Regent Cid requested that a group of us travel to visit Matoya, because of her knowledge of Garland and of the cycles. We spoke with her once more, and what she told us...

She said that we must create a new source of life, by merging our own lives with that of this world. That this is the only thing that will end the spell Garland put in place that draws us to this world. The method to do so is through the myrrh, and bringing it to the Iifa Tree. That will bind us to this world, and end the spell. Defeating Garland, it seems, is not the final step in ending the enchantments that draw us here. This will be the method through which not only this world, but all the worlds, are saved. However... even once this magic is defeated, we will not be returned to our own worlds. We cannot.

[He closes his eyes and takes a breath before continuing.]


It is possible for us to be returned. However, doing so will threaten the world itself- the act of returning could very well destroy all of the worlds.

[He almost goes to say something more, but then shakes his head.] That is all.

[ Yuna is... glowing, to say the least, and her smile is bright. She holds up her left hand, her ring glittering on it in the moonlight. ] He asked me.. and I said yes.

[The video feed begins with the Sky Phone obviously on the stone floor, from its angle. Little can be seen at first except that and Ursula's legs. Her dress is torn and claw marks abound, blood dribbling downward from them. A column of light surrounds her as Chakra takes effect, easing those wounds somewhat.

Ursula sighs in relief, then mutters to herself.]


Where am I? This can't--

Hey! This is yours, kupo!

Huh?

[The princess's startled face can be seen as the screen wobbles a bit, the moogle holding it up to her.]

You ran off before I could give it to you!

[Ursula's back to glancing around warily.]

Sorry, but I can't stay here. Unless you can tell me how to leave this place, I really don't have the time--

These ruins are high in the air! You need an airship to leave, kupo!

What?! I don't--

[Suddenly, a loud screech drowns out Ursula's words. She whirls around to face the monster--and that's the last of what's seen before the moogle shrieks and drops the Sky Phone.]

Run!

[She doesn't need to tell the moogle twice. Its small feet can be heard running away from the beast as fast as possible. Meanwhile, Ursula runs toward it....]

Are love letters the usual way in which affection is expressed? [ Percy looks a bit confused, and hesitant about asking people. No one really teaches these sort of things in the middle of a war, so he's curious in general, but he actually wants to know this for a reason, too. A specific one. That fake love letter made him start thinking, but it's not like he could ask Porom about it. Instead, he's asking others, and probably catching the attention of all the shipperdins and trolls in the process.]



[Then, later, he has something else to talk about- so pick up, Kain!]

[Leonora's seated in a guest room inside Lindblum Castle, looking quite distressed. More than her usual level of worryface she wears. Her head's down and the phone's cradled in her hands.]

I spoke with the Earth Crystal.

[More precisely, she tried to, and it took hours to get a response. She's still uncertain if it's the lack of the other Epopts, the displacement to another world, or if it's angry at her for abandoning her post in Troia for adventures on the moon.]

It is... angry. Angry and afraid.
