[letter to all Heroes + action]
[A letter delivered to all Heroes of Light:]
Seems like just about everyone recognized someone in crystal status when the new guys were brought in the other day. Even some of you new guys did. As someone who's been here since this whole mess started, I can tell you that this is the first time that that's happened. Same with your violent arrival.
I never much liked this whole deal, and I'm liking it less and less every day. Some used to think that the Crystal of Fire was just sort of doing this and no one knew why. If you ask me, this past week's been a big clue pointing to someone being behind this. Not only that, but all that weird doppleganger stuff, like the ones we've found in the Magitek complex or around town only make everything even weirder. Someone out there sure knows a lot about my home planet, at least, and now we know they know plenty about the rest of yours, too.
Whatever this is all about, it's got something to do with that Lady Kalki and the Emperor. That's about all I got out of those dang spies when I saw them in Trano Golsaucia last month. You know what I miss? When I had an entire planet as my jurisdiction, not just one city. Otherwise they'd all be sitting in jail right now.
What I'm trying to say is that we can't just sit around and hope all this stuff just starts making sense sometime soon. It ain't. We need to do it without waiting for anyone to slid in and solve these problems. First things first: find Kalki. That means heading into the Empire somehow. And that means a whole mess of danger.
So who's interested?

[B: action/moogle
When the Heroes had been told they could once again bring items from home by Jessie, what Sparks had asked for was his Marshal Station. Asking for a small, rocket-powered, AI-equipped building is a bit of a tall order, and when too many days pass with no word from Jessie, Sparks figures it for a loss.
However, his moogle Red gets word that there's a delivery for her charge today, surprised to find a book had been brought for him instead. And what a book! Titled, "We're From Earth: A Tale of Star-Crossing Lovers", the book is apparently about the marshal himself and written by his ex-girlfriend, the famous writer Rebecca Rose Rushmore. Sparks is more of someone who will talk about his past exploits than anything personal, despite Red's attempts. A sucker for juicy gossip, Red's hit the jackpot.
She does give an honest try in not reading it, since it's his mail and not hers, but she can't resist. After all, what will one little peek hurt? Just a page or two! Naturally, she gets completely sucked in. The book is full of all kinds of sordid details she wasn't expecting, and Sparks comes off as a total jerk. Instead of flying directly to Sparks's house, she can be found reading the book while ambling her way there, her face glued to the pages.]
No way! [She gasps quietly.] Sparks, how could you, kupo...!
[Seems she's so enraptured that she's not looking where she's going or how low she's flying, and she smacks right into you, book falling cover-up at your feet. She squeals in horror to not only have done that, but to be caught red-handed.]

I have only arrived and I honestly don't really understand what is going on here. If the Empire is here, the one from my own world then..
I don't remember a whole lot since waking up here but I do know this. The Empire will do anything to get what they want and use anyone to do so.
Terra,
P.S. This is Tempest here, Terra's moogle, I wrote what Terra had told me but from how she described the Empire that she knows it is a very scary and dangerous place.
I haven't ever been to the Empire here before besides a few letters back before the border closed but over the last few years they have become more aggressive. Should you chose to embark on this please be careful. I think Terra wants to go with you but I don't want her getting hurt.

You're from this world? Or a world like it? What do you know about the Empire then?

I can meet you in person if you wish. I am not from this world. I only just arrived but there is an Empire in my world and I know some about it. I don't know if they are related. I don't know how helpful that I will be though.
I'm afraid that I have lost parts of my memory when I woke up here.
Terra,

Lots of worlds got empires. What makes this one similar to yours?

no subject
I suppose I can't know for sure. Tempest has told me some of their technology and armor, it sounds the same but unless I see it I cannot know.

I will see what I can find then. I hope to be of help.
