004 - [Video]

[Sophie has lived all her life in Luceti, so it isn't as though she's not used to weird happenings. At the same time, though, you have to admit that it's a little surprising to wake up wearing something you definitely didn't have on when you went to bed last night.

Now, normally Sophie would just ask one of her family in House 34 what the heck is going on, but it's still pretty early and she's been told a few times not to make a lot of noise before everyone is up. But hey, no problem: she left her journal on the floor beside her bed last night.

So she clambers out of bed, and dressed in the jacket and a pair of pyjama bottoms with little yellow duckies on them (it's the height of fashion), she opens up her journal.]

What's this?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

...Dark rooms where bad people meet and talk about the crimes they wish to commit. In the dangerous part of town.

[He's not a criminal, generalities are all he has.]

[Her eyes widen, but decidedly not in fear.]

We should go find them and get them.

[What are you going to do now, Cecil?]

[...What has he done.]

We can hardly do so now. We'd have to find the exact room first, and your new jacket might get dirty.

So? We gotta stop the bad guys.

[Cecil, Fenimore is going to fire you as a babysitter....]

We need a plan for that. Otherwise, we risk capture or worse, and that would make everyone very unhappy.

[...Not that having a plan helped him most of the time, but still.]

What kinda plan?

[Don't you just usually charge right in?]

We need fighters that can take advantage of any potential weakness in our opponents. People that can heal the group if needed. Enough supplies to last a few days too, just in case.

[A good party, in other words.]

[She turns this over in her head for a bit.]

We could ask Gee Girl.

[He thinks about it for a few moments.]

...She certainly can fight, and she could cover our offensive magical needs... We'd still need a dedicated healer, but that'd be an excellent start.

She can do that. She fixed my knee.

[She grabs the journal and drags it down to knee level while yanking up her pajamas bottoms. Have a view of a perfectly normal five-year-old knee, Cecil.]

And what a good job she did. Did she use Nala's power, or was it a spell from home?

[Because a dedicated healer needs Haste and Esuna equivalents, and Nala doesn't quite cut it.]

She talks to Nala a lot.

[So that's probably where it's from.]

As far as I know, Nala cannot speed fighters up or stop them in their tracks...

[White mages have very complicated duties.]

Who can do that?

[She's never heard of anything like that.]

Rosa could do it. Ceodore could do it. So could Porom, Tellah, Fusoya, Leonora... But none are here at the moment.

Who're they?

My wife, my son, two dear friends, my uncle and a comrade I met not long before coming here, respectively.

Oh.

They really can go extra fast?

They can make anyone move much faster. Fast enough to outrun any monster, even.

[Okay, that sounds awesome.]

I want to try it!

...As none of them happen to be present in this world at the moment, we'd have to find Hermes Sandals for that.

[All the best ideas have a catch.]

Those make you go fast?

[It's important to be sure. Accept no substitutes!]

As long as they are proper Hermes Sandals and not magicless copies, yes.

[Accept no substitutes indeed.]

There're fake ones?

A group of unscrumpulous merchants tried to make and sell them, yes. Considering the punishment they received, I doubt they'll try again.
