[Voice Post] Looking Ahead...

[unseenspy]

This cold weather gives this place a gloomy atmosphere. A lot of people have been here for a year, even two years. And it's just the beginning for me. I can't say I'm looking forward to being somebody's lab rat for two years. I certainly don't intend to be stuck here that long.

But right now, there's nothing I can do except bide my time.

That amusement park appearing and disappearing overnight...that thing that attacked me...I wonder what else I have to look forward to?

Indeed. I'd better learn my limits now before I bite off more than I can chew.

Hmm...that's certainly weaker than before, but hopefully it should still suffice.

You imbue the dagger with magic, or is it a spell you can only set off after it's thrown?

It's not really magic. It's a special power in my world called eres.

'Eres'...is that common, in your world?

It's fairly common. Not everyone can use it, but it's gradually becoming more common.

I see...that sounds a little like my world. Magic is pretty rare, but it's making a comeback. What determines who can use it? Is it just aptitude or something else?

Hmm...the most common belief is that Nerifes chooses whom to bless with this power. Or it may also be hereditary. It's one of the many mysteries in my world.

I see...well, whatever the source, at least you have some means to defend yourself here. I wish it wasn't necessary, but I doubt Kefka and others like him are just going to go away.
