[The monkeyboy's got a couple of very important things to ask before this whole adventure begins. He looks more serious than has ever been seen on the network, save maybe the brief time after Dagger died. He really doesn't like that he has to do this, but he knows it's necessary.]

Hey, guys.

I, uh... [He puts a hand up to his head to scratch the ( Read more... )

[ Blank had been planning to visit the Royal couple for the longest time to meet the new arrival. He'd held off awhile, knowing they'd probably be bombarded with guests and appointments and not to mention all the world stuff too ( Read more... )

[So Rinoa is here like she promised, to visit Zidane and Garnet. She's still not popular in Alexandria and this is obvious from the suspicious way the guards treat her, but they're under orders and they escort her into the castle to meet the king and queen. It's all a bit more formal than she'd hoped. Where are they ( Read more... )

[ Camera flickers on as a hand pulls away from it, the recorder filming as the ex-SOLDIER retreats from where he was asking someone manning a stand where he was. He had done a quick look over what he had on his person when he first arrived but it seemed that people were 'used' to people who didn't have a clue why they were there. As he almost ( Read more... )

[To say that Cecil is worried for Lilisette after her message would be a grave understatement, despite his apparently calm text response. More than once he's entertained the idea of amassing a group to storm Lufene's liar and rescue Lilisette, but his kneejerk reaction is tempered by experience. Lilisette seems to know what she's doing and the ( Read more... )

[The video feed comes on to show two unfortunate Alexandrians in stocks right out in the main square of the city. One of whom is one of her own soldiers. There is impatient tapping of Beatrix's foot on the cobblestones echoing before she speaks, and obviously she's got a message to impart to the network and the locals who are gawking with hushed ( Read more... )

[ The feed turns on to show the waist down of a dark skinned female, her hands firmly placed on her hips. She's pacing around a couple of moogles, and the camera finally pans up to show Prishe, face contorted into a very fierce expression of pondering. ]So lemme get this straight-- I'm on a planet called Gaia? And Garland's here? And there's no way ( Read more... )

[Rinoa sounds absolutely exhausted. Almost like she's talking to herself, even, though she's not; she knows the phone is switched on but she's saying whatever comes to mind.]We're going home ( Read more... )

[This is the Chaos Shrine. The old, derelict Chaos Shrine which looks like it hasn't seen a good cleaning in a couple thousand of years. And in the middle of it is one Lufene, looking bored and sulky. Oddly enough there's a lot of expensive decor in her vicinity. Is some of it various auction goods that mysteriously quit being up for bid? Either ( Read more... )

Greetings, citizens and friends of Gaia.

Good news! We have located the Chaos Shrine, Garland's hiding spot. Turns out that it was hidden right under our noses all along! It's in the middle of the Aerbs Mountains. I've sent airships to scout out the area, but unfortunately the area is so densely forested that it's impossible to land. The Shrine ( Read more... )
