RESIDENTIAL BLOCK.
The crisp morning air felt nice, and Yuna drew in a deep breath as she closed her eyes, taking a little joy in knowing spring was almost in full effect. Besaid didn't have much for seasons, but the change going over the lands was welcome and rejuvenating, as though it was getting a new beginning again -- something she could relate to.
Momo had rejoined his hero the moment there was word that she had returned, his usual energetic demeanour was muted, and he walked by the mage's side rather than flying for once, casting worried glances upwards, as they continued towards the hospital in silence. Yuna held her head high, her hands clasped in front of her loosely as she looked forward, focused on a world millions of miles away, rather than the one she walked in.
HOSPITAL.
Everything was almost exactly as she left it. The files and reports, the medicines and potions... even the compresses and braces, everything had been well taken care of. Aside from herself she was aware that others worked here but the nurses station had become her own sort of home base, and the helper moogles had taken such good care of everything in her absence...
The way some things were placed, she looked on with a smile, knowing that Momolumi had likely done his part to make sure that everything was placed exactly the way she would have done it as well. It was a warm feeling, a nice one, small gestures could mean everything when you felt like you were thrown off your feet.
She made her rounds just like always, glad to see that there didn't seem to be any current patients of the heroic variety. The hallways were quiet but for the workers that moved things about, wheeling carts of laundry, mops being swished across the ground. Before long, she found herself in front of one of the stasis rooms. Packed with those that had disappeared from this world, encased in cold crystal... There would be new victims, she was sure but... maybe there were some that had survived? Like Snow... Taking a deep breath, she pressed forward, gripping her clipboard in hand as she stepped inside the room, searching the frozen faces to see how time had assessed their fate.
CRYSTAL OF FIRE.
It was hours later than she had said she would be home. Whether she had lost herself in her work purposefully or by accident was anyone's guess, but her pace was slowed and it seemed like she was in no hurry. The events of the day had helped to keep her mind off of the things she had learned and seen in her time as a prisoner of the Empire, but... try as she might, they always crept back up once the world around her went quiet.
Yuna held her crystal in her hand, her steps coming to a heel, just a few inches from the Crystal of Fire. She didn't know why she had come here, and she didn't know why she gazed intently at the purple of her own, then the red of the elemental gems in front of her.
In the war, it had been about crystals, too. Obtain your crystal, receive the power... In the forest of Aqures Ixen, the crystals had been black, poisoned, tainted... like the one they had given Rikku that horrible day... there were even people that had turned to crystal! And now, the one in her hands had started to change colour... once a vibrant red, it was darkened, turning a purpleish-blue. All these crystals -- what did it all mean...?
