[Vague apology is going to be vague, but that's how Kain does these things. He'll leave it public partially as an act of penance, partially because he's still readjusting to these devices and their filters. He isn't even sure that all of these people are here- he's been gone from Gaia for only a couple weeks, but to him it feels much, much longer. ( Read more... )

[This definitely gets his attention.]

You are apologizing to the warriors of Cosmos? For what reason?

[Voice] dragoon_rising April 26 2011, 13:50:12 UTC
For what I've done.

...It's good to see you again, my friend.

[Ok now the world should be afraid. Kain is going around calling people he's apparently never spoken with, his "friend."]

What you have done?

[If people don't remember him, he's not going to assume it's because they were in the cycle. Especially now that he knows he has a home world.]

I apologize, but I have no memory of you.

Then you've forgotten. The nature of the war. Of course.

[Sigh. This complicates things, and now he has to wonder if those memories can even be recovered here. Golbez had said it was possible to regain them by fighting, but... can it work here at all?]

I'm Kain Highwind, dragoon of Baron and warrior of Cosmos. We fought beside one another in many cycles of the gods' war.

[Video] or action if we're assuming that Ricard hasn't left? last_dragoon April 26 2011, 11:13:50 UTC
What're you doing offering to fight?

[Video] either works! XD think he'd stick around for a bit? dragoon_rising April 26 2011, 13:49:07 UTC
But, father... I've just been told that there are manikins out there!

[Getting up to look for his armor and spear now. This ought to go well. :|]

[action] yep. son > army of monsters last_dragoon April 28 2011, 10:48:40 UTC
[And moving to stand in his way.]

There's got to be every kind of monster in the world out there. What makes these ones so special?

Reply

[action] yeah, I figured! dragoon_rising April 28 2011, 12:41:58 UTC
They- they're worthless mockeries of humanity- dealing only death and oblivion. That endless army I told you about...

[Come on, dad, get out of the way! :| Not that Kain could push you aside how he is at the moment. Or that he even could anyway, that paternal respect thing kind of gets in the way of trying.]

[Cecil hasn't forgotten Kain's previous attempts to apologise. And that's an oddly specific list of Cosmos warriors... Cecil wasn't even aware Kain was acquainted with them.]

Kain, what is this about? Why are you apologising?

[He sighs at the offer. You might not want two stern dads, Kain, but the way you're behaving, you're going to need them at this rate. :|]

You should at least let yourself rest. You're in no condition to fight.

[voice] dragoon_rising April 26 2011, 13:47:57 UTC
I've rested. [Ok, so he only just regained enough energy to use the phone, but that's a minor detail.] Those monsters are still out there...

[Yeah, it doesn't help that Cecil is older. Not quite older enough to BE his dad, but older is still older.]

But I mean what I say. I'm sorry, Cecil. For you especially. I know you place so much trust in me...

Reply

[voice] trinitycrusades April 26 2011, 13:56:43 UTC
You can fight them when you're ready. You'll only be a liability if you go out there still injured, and have to be rescued again.

Of course I trust you. You know that I do. What reason would you have to apologise to me -- or my friends?

Reply

[voice] dragoon_rising April 26 2011, 16:45:26 UTC
I did well enough out there... [He doesn't like admitting you're right.]

...Cecil... they're my friends as well. [Which should be a biiig indicator something is up, Kain doesn't refer to just anyone as a friend. Ever.] Perhaps we ought to filter this, how do I...

[Fumbling with the device. His memories of people and things that happened here came back pretty readily, but how to use the stupid phone hasn't come back to him yet.]

[voice] alittletoosmart April 26 2011, 12:42:48 UTC
...huh? Why're you apologizing? You hit someone's pet bird or something?

[He's...not sure why that was the first thing that came to mind.]

Reply

[voice] loool you know i always mentally forget to add the kid to that list *fixes this* dragoon_rising April 26 2011, 13:45:13 UTC
...No, it was something worse than that.

[He decides to stay vague with this, for the moment.]

You recall fighting in the conflict of the gods, don't you?

Reply

[voice] alittletoosmart April 26 2011, 13:58:13 UTC
Why would I have forgotten something like that?!

[...except for the part where he. Did actually forget the bulk of it.]

[voice] dragoon_rising April 26 2011, 16:38:11 UTC
[Sighs.]

I suppose, this is to be expected. Forgetting is the very nature of the cycles we were involved in.

...For what?

Reply

[voice] dragoon_rising April 27 2011, 02:21:43 UTC
For my actions in the last cycle of the gods' war... for what I had to do.

Do you know of the war's true nature?

Reply

[voice] knighted_lion April 27 2011, 22:13:58 UTC
It... was supposed to repeat, right?

Reply

[voice/filtered] dragoon_rising April 27 2011, 23:29:27 UTC
...and it did repeat. Several times, as far as I'm aware. Even those who had fallen would be revived for the next cycle, their memories taken as part of that process.
