first prayer ❧ video

[virtu]

These are funny little things, aren't they? Almost like a mirror, except you see other people in them, and they're not even a hologram. But you see yourself too! I think it'd be easier just to talk to people in person, but I'm sure everyone has their reasons for using this. I guess not everybody can fly.

Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself! I'm Colette Brunel, and I'm looking for anyone who's from Sylvarant or Tethe'alla, or even Derris-Kharlan. It's very nice to meet you all, and I look forward to fighting by your side. Don't hesitate to let me know if you need anything.

[Lloyd had to think about that for a second, he's here now.]

Oh yeah, I guess being able to fly would be a lot more convenient than using these things!

[virtu]

I don't know about more convenient, but I definitely prefer being around people rather than talking to them from a distance. This way is almost lonely.

[boredallready]

That's true. I guess they worry more about making it easier for everybody instead of less lonely. I met somebody here who couldn't talk so she wrote out everything on this, so I guess you don't have to just use it when you're not around someone!

[virtu]

[ That certainly grabs her attention. ]

Someone who can't talk? Is she...like I was?

[boredallready]

[And that sombers his mood a bit. He still hates that she had to go through that even though it's been so long since it ended.]

No, I think she's from a different world. She just isn't able to say anything, so there's nothing we can do about it...

[virtu]

Still, I want to try talking to her.

[ What a comfort it might have been at the time to know someone else endured what she had. Kratos did, she realizes suddenly. If Colette can do something, anything for this girl, it will be enough. ]

Do you know her name?

[boredallready]

Yeah, her name is Nill! I'm pretty sure you can get in contact with her however you want, she'll just write out anything she wants to say.

[virtu]

Like you and I did.

[boredallready]

Sorta! She used the tablet when I met her. I guess that makes easier to talk to more people at the same time.

[virtu]

That would be easier. Still, I'm glad I have my voice now.

[boredallready]

Yeah, I'm glad too.

[Though his expression drops a bit as he thinks back to that whole ordeal. Why had it taken him so long to realize how much she was suffering?]

That key crest is still working, right? I know sometimes if the charm gets worn down, regular Exspheres could still make people sick. Cruxis Crystals are probably close to the same.

[virtu]

[ Her hand drifts to her breast, where the precious pendant is tucked safely away beneath her clothes. ]

It's working. I'll let you know if anything changes, I promise.
