[When the video connects, lo! A panning view of the mighty Kingdom of Baron, from one of the castle towers. Surprisingly, Edge's hands are quite steady. His voice cuts in from the background:]

To those of you curious, Baron is safe and sound. There's still no sign of Cecil and Rosa... and Ceodore, was it? He sounds like a tough kid. [A pause; he's getting sidetracked a little too much for his own good these days, but all this information is a lot to handle at one go.] Anyway, the kingdom is still in good hands, and it probably won't run itself to the ground anytime soon.

[Now, back to business. Look at Edge's handsome face, everyone!!]

When I get to Eblan, I'll wait a week and then head towards the Tower of Babil. At someone's insistence, I'd like to get a group together for this—it might hold a clue or two as to what's happening around here, but I can't make any guarantees.

You guys can take an airship heading south from any of the kingdoms to Eblan. Just ask around, and I'm sure you'll be able to figure something out.

I'll welcome anyone interested with open arms so long as they're not looking to stir up trouble! You have my word as King.

((ooc; group of three filled! Let me know if you really want in on the party plot--I can probably make room for one more.))

Oh. But I don't know how long it'll take...

Have you seen it?! I have to keep it styled!

[Video] 1/2

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Styled? Who has time for that—

No! We're not talking about this.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

You coming or what?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

I get up early, so it's okay! Why not?

I might. But I have to find Yuna first.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Right, your girl. She's still underground?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

She's not my girl. I don't know.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Sure, sure. Is she just sticking around the castle, or is she with Rydia on her little trip to the Feymarch?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

Is Feymarch in the Underworld?

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Any other questions?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

No. I think she's going with her.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Then I'd say you wait until Rydia brings her back to the surface. She's in safe hands, with or without the Eidolons.

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

I'll be happier when she's back and I know that for sure.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Well, you and me both.

All right. I'm not forcing you to do anything. Just rest a little easier—it's not like she's completely unguarded at the moment.

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

I know, but I'm her guardian. I'm supposed to, you know, guard. Not guarding her now...it's just weird.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

You better get used to it! At least for now.

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

I can't get used to it, I have a job to do!

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah, I get it.

Start digging!

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

Sure, I'm on it!

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

You'll help, right?

[He's smiling. Smiling so sincerely he must be serious.]

[Video] 1/2

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Sure th—

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Sure, if I didn't have any better things to do. But I sort of have a kingdom to get back to and start running, yeah?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

[He'll just have to try harder! He blinks at him.]

But you're not running it right now. It'll be fine for a few days. Besides, taking time to help someone who isn't even from your kingdom makes you look good!

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

That's the thing—I don't know who's running it! And I'm helping plenty of people on my way to Eblan, so you can't pull that card on me.

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

What? Aren't you suposed to know? Oh... [He keeps his voice carefully neutral.] Okay. I see now. You're scared of digging.
