[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.))

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

[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!

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

You'll help, right?

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

[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.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Some things happened, okay! And why would I be scared of digging?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

Yeah, right. I don't know anything about being king. Germs?

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Germs?

... really. Is that the best you can come up with?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

You're the one scared of digging, not me.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Look, I gave you directions and some advice. Isn't that enough?

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, sure.

No!

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Well I can't go and help you. We have to come up with some kind of compromise, here!

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

[see this face? he's making it at you!]

Why can't you?

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Sorry to say, but the people of Eblan take priority over you. And Rydia'd probably kill me if I went off and followed her around all the way down to the Feymarch when there's a whole bunch of other stuff we need to tend to!

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

Okay. I'll just go on my own.

[Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

You still remember my advice? You have to find an airship sturdy enough to go down to the Underworld. The passage is in Agart, directly south of Baron.

[Video]

[sin-spawn.livejournal.com]

[you should!]

Right. Steal an airship and go down! How do you pilot an airship?

Re: [Video]

[knewthat.livejournal.com]

Hey wait who said anything about stealing an airship?!
