(voice)
(this voice is a new one. sort of. it sounds vaguely familiar and rather normal, which is perhaps the oddest thing about it. no growls, no rough tones... just. normal.) Cid would like me to thank you for participating in the masquerade and his game. He'll be speaking to you about your winners and rewards shortly.
My gem has been returned to me, there is no need for anyone to continue to search. It was a... mistake. Of sorts. (pause. can you hear him cringing? because he is. this is hard, okay.) I imagine I should... apologise...
So. I do. And I thank you for your assistance.
Your Caravan will be in top shape again soon. A few minor repairs are still being done, but it is very possible you will all be on the road again within the next two days. You are all still welcome to stay in the Castle. If you find yourselves in need of anything, I may be able to return the favors I owe all of you.
You can easily contact me, or-- ah, I suppose you could talk to Belle. Or Cid Amon.
