"Good to hear. I'd hate for anyone else to have to go through all that."
Asbel's head dipped a little as he continued to walk, ordering his thoughts. "It happened right after I got here. I don't really remember all the details..."
He offered Sophie a sympathetic smile. "Guess we're not so different, huh? One minute I was on my way to Barona, and the next I was waking up with the other captured Heroes. No one was around who would answer our questions, we couldn't get out, and moogles would arrive to feed us maybe once a day. Whatever the Empire was trying to do with us, it drained the color right out of our crystals."
On his shoulder, Tern shivered, pressing his face into Asbel's sleeve as if it was a time he didn't want to remember. Asbel patted him on the head and continued quietly.
"Anyway, things continued like that for a while - days, I guess, a week? - then the lights suddenly flickered and went out. We knew we couldn't wait any longer, so we worked together to escape. A bunch of the other Heroes were infiltrating the facility from the outside, as well, and we managed to meet up with them just in time."
