Figaro still stands, but not without heavy losses. The attack caught us completely by surprise, and the numbers were too great. Lufene was apparently searching for the zodiac stones; she didn't succeed in this goal, but now she has Figaro's king

If you wish it, I will join you.

[heavenslament]

[She nods immediately.]

I think we'll need your help. Likely Lufene is going to be expecting us.

[for_cosmos]

Then I will assist. She is a formidable opponent.

[A chance to finally actually defeat her would be good, though.]

[Terra's lips move in what could almost be a smile.]

Thank you. I just hope we can reach her in time to save Edgar....

[There is one weary, worried, and annoyed ex-general coming for Terra. Wherever she is, Celes is going to find her. Now.]

[action]

[heavenslament]

[Terra, being a master of stealth and escape is...in her room. She's almost done with packing.]

[action]

[magitekrune]

[She's just... going to be kind of a bitch right now and knock once before pretty much barging right in. She knows what this'll be doing to Terra's nerves, but she's not letting the other girl run off on some suicide mission.]

Terra, it's too soon.

[Straight to the point.]

[action]

[heavenslament]

[And Terra is likewise blunt. She shakes her head.]

Celes, I can't stay here. You know what she'll do to him.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho]

[He's not even gonna ask what happened, because the magical sense of logic that's been instilled in him can pretty much already figure it out. He only regrets that he didn't figure it out in time to help more.]

I'm coming with you.

[And he won't take no for an answer. In fact, he's already on his way to come and meet you.]

[Voice]

[heavenslament]

[And Terra's just grateful that he's not going to tell her to wait or any such nonsense. Her voice, now that she allows it to be heard, is that of forced calm. Likely all her energy is going towards maintaining that.]

Thank you, Cloud. The boy's coming and Firion says he ought to be able to help us, too. We just need to get to Lindblum, and hope that Regent Cid has an airship to spare.

[Voice]

[mirroredecho]

[Normally, he would, but if it were someone he loved? He wouldn't be waiting, no matter what anyone said. How could he tell her to do something he wouldn't?]

I'll meet you there. [He had a bartender to go check in with before he ran off.]

What else do we need?

[Voice]

[heavenslament]

Hm...a lot of restoratives would be helpful. Given the amount of enemies we could encounter, there won't be a lot of magic to spare for healing.

I can offer limited services to you, but I wish to be of help.

No matter how bog or small it is I wish to help with this rescue operation

[heavenslament]

What services do you mean? What can you offer?

[Text]

[unlimitedcid]

I am an expert with machines, a chemist as I have been told...

I apologize if these are no help, normally I've been working on trains and airships, but I want to help out with this rescue.

[heavenslament]

Thank you very much. I won't turn away any offer of aid, and I'm sure your skills will be useful. I'm planning to reach Lindblum, in hopes of gaining an airship from Regent Cid. If you're nearby, you can join us there.

[knighted_lion]

Do you know where she went?

[heavenslament]

I think she went to Pandemonium. That's where she gathered her army before, and it's the best lead I have.

[knighted_lion]

Do you still need people?

[heavenslament]

I think so. I'm not sure how much of Lufene's army remains, but somehow I don't doubt that she has plenty left at her disposal.
