"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...

( it was a long shot, but she supposed this woman would have a much better lay of the land than she would. and knowing that the locals weren't exactly fond of them, asking for directions or clues in public seemed like a bad idea... )
I'm not even sure if it might even be the same moogle but... one dressed as a black mage caused some trouble in Aqures Ixen not long ago, you see. If I could somehow find him there are -- some questions we're hoping he can answer.

This or another island nearby-- Maybe the on the continent's coast, but I doubt he went that far away. I am afraid I know no more.
Maybe if you visit the city or other places you might find more clue and putting them together, get a better picture of where he is. But there are good chance this might be the same one. Moogles rarely take on Jobs. A Black Mage moogle is an oddity in itself, so with chance, the Moogle you are seeking and the one I remember are one and the same.

she made a note to send a letter with momolumi to the others on the lookout... but there was just a nagging feeling about something else... ) Um. Just one more thing... ( she might be one of the best to ask, after learning she was a guardian of the crystal... ) I don't suppose... you've ever heard about a black crystal, have you?
no subject
[ She shook her head once more. ]
I am afraid not.
