[Eiko is busy rushing around her room, gathering flutes and rackets from every nook and cranny imaginable. There's some distressed kupos from moogles fluttering around. One of them finally works up the courage to tell her 'Lady Eiko, it's on.' The child whips around and slaps her hands on her hips in true bossy fashion.]

All summoners are to report

[Rydia stares into the screen, visibly exhausted and rumpled. The Devil's Road mess had -just- been taken care of.]

I'll be there.

[Video]

[lastsummoner]

Thanks Rydia! Um, the moogles say it's that Eidolon that lives in that singing stone.

[eidolon_soul]

...Anima?!

[lastsummoner]

Yeah but she's acting really funny. I don't get it.

[crowned_jewel]

A-- what? Eiko, I can't...

[lastsummoner]

Yes you can! But... I don't think Amber's ready to summon yet, so you better leave her with Zidane.

[crowned_jewel]

She's too young for me to leave her for too long...

[lastsummoner]

So hurry it up. And tell Rusty to give you that cup thing of his in case we need it.

[While Eiko is a flurry of action and emotion, her guardian is calm and collected and has stationed himself right in front of the only viable exit to the room unless you happen to possess wings of any sort to take you out the window.

Watching the girl with something of partial amusement at the way she's darting all over gathering things as if she was herself a general preparing for a war campaign, he waited silently for her to notice him and explain just where she thought she was going to go with all of those items she was collecting.]

[That feeling of being watched? Eiko is having it. She pauses mid-trot and peers over her shoulder to find Sephiroth just... standing there.]

Get a move on. We've got an Eidolon to tame.

[Action]

[glorious_mercy]

[We're doing a rather good impression of a wall here, except perhaps wall's couldn't grace the bossy princess with a slightly raised eyebrow of inquiry.]

I assume we're not asking permission from your father to take this journey across the world to do this taming?

[Action]

[lastsummoner]

Of course not. This is sacred summoner business.

[Pointing at the door now.]

Stop dawdling. We gotta go.

[immortal_lion]

[Have a very dishevelled, very ill looking Immortal. Yet he manages the brightest of smiles.]

Lady Eiko...I will come with you.

There has been talk of many monsters surfacing upon Gaia. Their strength is astounding...

[lastsummoner]

Rishfee!

[Even with it being a dire situation, Eiko bounces up and down.]

I've missed you!

...um, you don't look so good.

[amorningglow]

I'll be there as soon as I can!

[lastsummoner]

Hey Yuna, the moogles say it's the Eidolon from inside that singing statue...

[amorningglow]

[ Her stomach drops, and Yuna visibly pales. ] You mean... Anima?

[lastsummoner]

Uh-huh. Do you know why she's doing it?
