That flame really is a big deal to you guys, huh...?

Starting to sound like you didn't have seasons. [ har har. ] My hometown was in the mountains, too, but not one of the colder ones. It was getting used to living in a city that was weird. [ peeriiing at rondo ] Congrats on surviving the frost, though.

Right! That makes sense. Do you travel with Miss Aerith and Miss Yuffie, then?
[ yeah! sort of war by himself! also it's a good day he is not letting the vibes get nasty :) ]

[ i had to make the joke so rondo gets to suffer for it ]
That's what caits are!! The Ringbearer Chosen is always talking about a cait scholar named Isla... She can walk and talk like a person, but she's a demihuman. She's the only one I've ever known that could talk, though, they're usually just kind of mischievous and like to steal riches and things...

...oh. [ he can, uh. put two and two together. ] ...Was it war, or...?

[ there's a pause and he. does not clarify before he's shaking his head and shrugging, not sounding too... bothered about it? ]
Traveling's alright, though. And it works better with the job, too.
