the city is open to you, edea lee. welcome to terra.

you will be housed in sybella apartments S15, where you will find a rubber chicken to replace the weapons taken from you on arrival. if you hit something with it, it makes the most awful noise.

you will retain your dragoon valkyrie job, as well as the ability to jump, so long as you still have legs. look at her go!

Hands worried over a small package, full of chocolates. It was a simple gift, but she never had much thought for extravagance. (Besides, what could she give the Grand Marshal’s daughter that she didn’t have?) 

She placed a hand to the door, ready to knock, but clutched the hand just as quickly back to her chest. Part of her still worried for the one that wasn’t here...that she thought she’d never see again..and he was taken away. And yet....Edea was here, and...something felt good, natural about it all....she had very little time to truly make sense of it all.

She wanted to stop worrying.

She knocked on the door.

“ Huh? What I do? I’m a pirate, duh! I dunno if this place would have it but I got a bounty and everything! My ship’s also not here and only a few of my friends are here, but trust me! I’m gonna be a big name eventually! But, it’s really cool you’re a knight even though you’re so little! You must be super tough, huh? “ 

“ So you’re a knight are you not? Tell me, what is the land you serve, like? I don’t mean to pry for malicious purposes I’m genuinely curious! I plan to succeed my mother as tactician of our land and so I’d like to understand more about the kinds of kingdoms that exist. Oh by the way, try these octopus dumplings they’re absolutely delicious. “

     While she cannot wear the clothing many shops in the city sell, the frills and prints and colors alike interest her. Donning what is more like boy’s clothing, she can’t help but compare herself to others, knowing she is not nearly as elegant or as beautiful as the women who go in and out of these clothing stores.

She had naught an idea where she was going; and without anyone else here, how could she? All she had was this small, handheld slab, which she had barely an idea how to work...

And clearly, Agnès was paying so little attention that she managed to collide right into someone. She took a step back, adjusting her vision, and...

No. It couldn’t be. It couldn’t be but confusion and joy filled her all at once, and she clutched her phone to her chest with both hands, her face illuminating at a familiar face--

    DESPITE BEING GRATEFUL FOR RHONGOMYNIAD, the inability to deploy her Phantasm leaves her back feeling bare to the forest’s predators. Without her kit, the war of attrition will prove fatal without a miracle. But, as if blessed by the Lord Himself, a miracle is exactly what she receives. A knight of considerable prowess pierces through the hoard of maws and dispels her from death’s clutches, leaving her with nary a moment to catch her breath. 

             For one reason or another. ( A woman... and a warrior, to be sure! )

     ‘    that's not a worthy explanation ... i know.   ’
