Precisely.

[Nor can anyone, given the circumstances. Yet this is an old song and dance. May as well at least be civil. He tips his hat to the soldier once more, before gesturing to the other. Whether or not she follows is up to her, but he will not block the way if any others would like to take the time to purchase last minute supplies.]

Ah, it occurs to me I never introduced myself. Call me Ardyn.

[unyieldingspirit]

[oh- whoops, yes they should. do that. She follows, giving the soldier a nod.]

A pleasure. K'pandolu Tohka. [she puts her hand over for a moment, then frowns.] Would I be right in assuming you arriving only recently…?

now that I've dug the mingle tag notifs out from the ones belonging to the confrontations........

[impatienttraveler]

Please, the pleasure is all mine.

[He says it with an almost-kind, but mostly polite smile. He'd admit, a half-cat person was not something he'd expected to see in his lifetime save from some child's imaginings, but she seems to be a decent sort.]

You would indeed, though considering where I'd come to, it is a surprise I made it to this confrontation at all, really.

o/!

[unyieldingspirit]

Not even a little to share?

[she leans forward a little, ears flicked back and grinning, not meaning any actual hurt.]

Ah… I'm sorry to hear that. I'm glad you did, though. It wasn't too close to the advance of the Calamity, I hope?

my inbox thought this was spam... Clearly should have made an Ardyn tag earlier. /oops

[impatienttraveler]

[Come now, there was no offense taken! There was no need to act so. He gestures to the moogle at his side, who tips his hat to her politely.]

Thankfully no, and young Cleitus stopped me before I went too far. Though I did draw just close enough to see certain... similarities to my own world.

inbox please

[unyieldingspirit]

[She straightens up, and nods to the moogle, ears flicking towards him for a moment.]

That's good to hear. Though- that, perhaps not so much. [She frowns, tail twitching.] I hope that it is not so terrible, but… May I ask what happened?

inbox got into the cabinet with plurk (Chapter 11 spoilers)

[impatienttraveler]

[He can't fault her curiosity, that much is certain.]

I wonder, is such a time truly the best for such tales?

[He muses aloud to himself, staring down at his nails as he pauses in his steps.]

Now might be the only time, kupo.

[Cleitus had a point. Well, it was not as though one of those in the masses somewhere already knew. Considering they had intruded upon the confrontation with his Calamity Self.]

A corruption was brought down unto the land, twisting men and beast into unspeakable horrors that wreaked havok on the environment. Nights growing ever longer as the horrors multiplied in the dark. The sun had just recently ceased to rise, when I awoke here.

gotta get that cabinet better defended

[unyieldingspirit]

[she hadn't, but she nods, and listens. Her tail puffs up as he tells the story, and she shakes her head, before more determinedly shaking herself off fully and settling again.]

…Something that spoke to the darkness within them, if I were to venture a guess… But to touch the sun, as well? That sounds… terrifying. [she shakes her head again, frowning.] At least it still rises here- I'd imagine that's something of a relief.

it needs magically-enhanced locking devices, clearly

[impatienttraveler]

[True, she had not - though the Teensie over there certainly had.]

An excellent guess. Whether it is true or not, I'm afraid I haven't the faintest idea. [Yet with his back turned, she won't see the look on his face.] Let us pray it remains that way. I would so hate to condemn another world to a similar fate as mine own.

[At least in that regard, he was honest.]

clearly!

[unyieldingspirit]

Mm… And I doubt we'd like what it took to find out. [she frowns, tail twitching, curling around her leg.] As would I. Still- we'll do what we can, after all. Right?
