"everyone, we leave at dawn."

Characters (ou) Yuna & OPEN.
Where Aqures Ixen → County of Flence → Temple of Water.
When Starting November 18 until the 28th.
Summary Killing two birds with one stone; in search of the Black Mage moogle in Flence, it seems as good a time as any to visit the Temple of Water.
Warning None... yet.




        AIRSHIP. (nov. 18 & 19)
Making preparations for a trip like this was a definitely easier said than done. Yuna had made arrangements with the airship crew already, making sure that there was space enough reserved for the party, and as she left the grocer in the city, provisions was another thing that she could cross off of her list. She didn't quite know what sort of jobs the others would be equipped with, but she took her own precautions as best she could, seeking out one of the smithies in order to have her staves and rings looked at. She still felt most at ease wearing the same sort of armour that she would at home and now, dressed in her usual summoner's robes, she couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

When finally the morning of the 18th rolled around, Yuna was one of the first people on deck that morning. She could bee seen struggling with several trunks and packages, trying to line them up and out of the way, chuckling softly to herself. Were she here, Lulu would surely have scolded her again for trying to bring so much...


        FLENCE, FISHING TOURNAMENT & RESTAURANTEERING. (nov 20 - 24)
It was quite the breath of fresh air as they touched down in Flence. It was certainly warmer here than when they had left the city, and for that, Yuna couldn't be more glad. The change of scenery really was... nice, she had to admit.

There was a different kind of hustle and bustle to get used to here, but as crowds started to gather, so too did she, in order to see what was going on. "Ah, it looks like... A fishing tournament?" the thought seemed to bring a smile to her lips, reminding her of the simple lives she and Wakka, Lulu and Chappu had led in Besaid once upon a time.

But fishing wasn't for everyone, and really, there wasn't that much excitement in watching anyway, but the smells from the restaurants nearby were enough to entice you inside as well. It seemed as though there were sales everywhere, people excited by the deals but really... Yuna didn't have that much gil to spare, especially if some of those that had accompanied her expected to be paid. Still, it didn't stop her from pausing at windows every now and again to see what creations the chefs and bakers had come up with.


        TEMPLE OF WATER. (pilgrimaging it nov. 25 - 28)
Well... this was it. This was the reason she'd come. It was true that no religion seemed to surround the temples, and while she was quietly grateful for that there was still something inside of her that stirred as she stepped out of the city and on the road to the temple.

With each of her steps, her mind wandered to her guardians... what were they doing now? Were they all right? How long had it been since she'd seen them? How much -- destruction had Sin caused in her absence? Or -- was it true that time that was simply standing still? To anyone walking alongside of her, it was obvious that she was bothered by something as she made her way to the temple in the distance. Once in awhile the party may come across a cockatrice, blue elemental and touch me(s) during the day or seeker bats at night.

When they finally arrived, she made her way to the crystal room standing in awe of the Water Crystal itself for a few moments -- before lowering herself to her knees slowly and offering Yevon's Prayer. Perhaps the gesture didn't mean to her what it once had, but... it was still a show of respect.

It had been a longer trek than she had realized, making her wonder if perhaps they should spend a night or two in order to truly explore the place. With the sun setting, she hoped that the caretakers wouldn't mind...

As soon as she ship lifted off Yuffie crouched to the ground gripping her stomach. She had been hoping to get medicine before they lifted off but she had arrived late. Once they were in the sky her seasickness wasn't so bad but lifting of and landing was the worst.

Her hand covered her mouth as she mumbled an answer to Yuna's question.

"I know-" She paused, getting her stomach under control. "-him."

Mooshoo flew over with a worried expression, apparently he didn't know that Yuffie was prone to seasickness.

She tried to talk through her hand and managed to get a gargle of words out of her mouth. "Motion S-sickness.."

Yuffie crouched down further letting herself fall against the ships deck. Once the ship levels out she looks a little less green.

Yuffie shook her head and waved Yuna away. She hated showing her own weaknesses and she was determined to not let her sickness win.

"I'll b-be fine in a bit.. Just need.. A moment."

As the airship leveled out Yuffie looked significantly better. She sat down, spreading her legs out and looked up at Yuna.

"I'm alright. Just a shaky start." Though a bed didn't sound completely unappealing. "What else do we need to talk about?" Not that she was being forgetful but they have about as sold of a plan that Yuffie ever has. Go in, fight stuff, protect Yuna and then when she was done they leave. Sounded easy anyway.
thegreatninja: (yeah sure)

"Exactly!" Yuffie grinned and then patted Yuna on the back.

"Plus your with me and I'm the greats ninja of Wuati! You'll be fine."
