[Upon arriving, Rahal had been knocked out of sorts, and once he came to he still thought himself to be dreaming. He had been out on a training mission with the Iron Rams, to Garlaige Citadel. Perhaps the floor had given way? Was this some secret and long forgotten area of the Citadel, built long ago by the Ancients

You'll find no bearded brute here.

[The boy's appearance and armour would have given his identity away even without him providing a name. Cecil doesn't immediately speak into the Sky Phone, however, first peering at the boy curiously. It's strange, to see ones so young talk and carry themselves like full-grown military men.]

Rahal? Excenmille's friend? He'll be glad to see you.

[video]

[knightlygriffin]

[Rahal looks at Cecil curiously for a moment before he nods. Had Excenmille taken another knight into the Stags? Somehow Rahal can't see his friend accepting a Hume so easily, but it's the only conclusion that can be drawn.]

Aye, he is a brother in arms. [It'd be less manly to call him a "friend," so he settles for another term.] I as well would like to see him. He left a few months back, on a journey.

Forgive me if this question is rude, but how is it you've come to know Excenmille? He is not the most accepting...

[video]

[trinitycrusades]

He came to the nation of Troia, in the hopes of finding you. Unfortunately I was unable to be of aid to him, but at least now you're on Gaia, he'll have no more need to worry.

[video]

[knightlygriffin]

I see. I must confess, that he'd seek me is odd. He is the one who left us...

[And for a moment the bitty is totally wrapped up in his thoughts with his hand on his chin.]

I'll see to it we visit Troia to repay you for your kindness. I do thank you for extending a hand to him.

[He's used to thanking people for Excenmille, so he just assumes his friend didn't do as much anymore.]

...Rahal? Oh, good! I know someone who's been most impatient for your arrival.

[Video]

[knightlygriffin]

[Oh, hello, pretty lady. He clears his throat after looking at her and respectfully drops his eyes away, so as to not stare.]

I--That is my name, yes. I apologize for not yet knowing yours. As for "arrival," I'm uncertain as to where I could be. I should have only fallen through the floor of the Citadel... Can this truly be another world?

Re: [Video]

[eidolon_soul]

[She nods, her smile apologetic.]

That's right; this is Gaia. The same thing happened to me, a long while ago. I'm Rydia of Mist...though lately, of Alfitaria. That is where Excenmille arrived, which is how I know of you.

[She stares past him and frowns slightly.]

You need to leave that area. Oeilvert is hardly the most hospitable of places, as you must know by now. Almost anywhere else would be better.

[Video]

[knightlygriffin]

Gaia... I see.

[This is rather worrisome for him. There are people back home who rely on him... People he still needs to command.]

I take it you cared for Excenmille when he arrived? You've my thanks, if that's the case. He is on his way here; I will at least remain until he comes.

[And then he offers her a reassuring smile.]

You need not worry. We'll be all right on our own. We are no strangers to danger or fighting.

...Jeuno?

[She pauses, checking the sky phone, but....]

...it is not located on Gaia's map. Nor have I heard of this Captain. He might not have crossed over, as you have.

[Video]

[knightlygriffin]

[Are those...? Maybe he had bumped his head somewhere.]

Crossed over? How is it even possible to simply cross into another world?

[Video]

[dewdrop_pebbles]

[...well, it is common knowledge, by now.]

I sorcerer named Garland is responsible, through magicks yet unknown. Our arrival into this world was but a side effect of his goal; he did not intend this. Nonetheless, he cares not for our plight and seeks to further disrupt Gaia's balance.

[Video]

[knightlygriffin]

Garland? [The name isn't familiar. He truly must be on a land unknown to him.] I see. It sounds as if this world needs saving. Are there plans to do as such? I would like to throw my blade into the mix. The sooner he's defeated and I can return to my homeland, the better.

Rahal? Hey, there was a kid looking for you. An Excenmille. I think he's still in Troia.

video

[knightlygriffin]

[Rahal's mouth drops open a bit; even he can see the slight resemblance between the two of them.]

Aye. Excenmille is present here? That is a great relief. Last I saw of him, I did not know if I would see him again. To get that chance is heartening, even under such circumstances.

[lunarianlegacy]

[Whereas Ceodore is completely oblivious to the resemblance and is just as cheerful as ever.]

He is. If you go to Troia, ask my parents to help you find him.

Gaia's pretty good about letting you see people you didn't think you'd get to again.

[His uncle comes to mind right away.]

video

[knightlygriffin]

Your parents? [Not that he knew who they were, but...] I will try to keep that in mind, thank you.

I'm still a bit uncertain of this place, but if it can offer such opportunities, I will keep an open mind. There are many I would wish to see again, if given the chance.
