fiddlesticks 25, video from standard coach: open to all

[blitzcheer]

Sooooo, not being able to talk to most of the train that day sucked, huh? I don't know what to think about any of that, but since we can talk to each other now, I was thinking: How about we share where we're from, and see who's from worlds like ours?

And who speaks the same languages too! An actual list be better if that ever happens again, but for now, tell us about the kind of place you're from, what makes home home to you! You got kings or dragons? Machines? Portals to other worlds? Talking sea life? You just trying to get through school?

I'll go first to give you guys an idea, but share whatever you feel like!


( ooc: this is open to all, meaning feel free to put up a post and chat with other characters! )

That it has,

[She agrees. And often enough a bloody one, though she's dwelt too long on that as things stand..]

And I suppose I'm lucky enough to know more of it than most Hylians. But I don't think it's the only thing which is needed to create a future. Strong hands, a sharp mind, a willing heart... your people will find what they need.

[Nodding]

I would like that very much. Please, tell me more.

[ It's a positive approach that Tidus can help but brighten to her words, nodding at her answer. ]

Sure! Okay, so...

[ He needs a moment to even think of where to start, especially with how wonderfully Zelda had laid out the lands of Hyrule as she knew them. A small hum creeping up before he speaks. ]

Hmm, if I had to describe Spira's land... I'd say it's small compared to how most places sound, but it's diverse. To the north, you have mountains covered in ice, a great mountain there known as Mt. Gagazet. The Ronso live there, a tribe of people who look close to big cats--fierce, prideful, and with horns on top of their heads. They're all about dealing with their own affairs, [ he says with a knowing humour, ] so you don't wanna bother getting involved when they're having a fight.

Before them though, you have a great big meadow. It's peaceful in a way, but strong fiends wander around, and you won't really find animals there since it's where summoners would go to fight with Sin. Before that is a forest made from water, and a large lake frozen over by the spirit of a fayth nearby.

[ He pauses, and then figures to ask: ] You want me to explain what that is before I go on? I don't think I told you about them.

[ He's sure he only spoke of Zanarkand before. ]

[wisdominshadows]

That does sound a little like the Gorons, [Zelda says with a small smile.] in spirit, at least. I've never seen very many cats around Death Mountain.

[Shaking her head] You didn't, no. Is it some type of guardian spirit?

[blitzcheer]

Oh, they're big cats. Muscular, standing on two feet-- [ --paws? he's not going to bother correcting himself ] and always ready to kick ass.

[ But he may be thinking of a Ronso in particular. Miss you, Kimahri. ]

The fayth were... [ Hmmm. ] They were living spirits. Summoners used to go and pray to them, and they'd be able to get what's called an 'aeon' from them--a summon that's like a big creature! I don't know if the fayth did anything outside that though. Maybe people prayed to them anyway?

But they were there to help with a bigger problem in Spira. Sin.
