second mission - video
[It's a cool day, a few hours past sunrise, when Ramza turns on his camera feed - well, and then places it in the mouth of his Skarmory. He's got many things this land has given him to think about.
But one keeps bubbling up - and, so, Ramza has made his way to the Cherrygrove beach, sitted with an egg in his lap. Even if today is an important day... well, Ramza has gotten his rest. He's actually got the urge to move on.]
Recently, I've spoken to another person from another land - and, he said my manner of speech was... off, in many ways. 'Tis true, I've not heard the nurses and shopkeepers speak like this... is it really that odd, however? We've all come from different lands - would it be less... odd, to try and speak like the natives.
[A pause, as he does shift, slightly. He's got another question.]
My first capture, when I arrived, was a Hoothoot, who I named Hildegard. She proved good, in both training Sevrin, and on her own. But, now she's evolved - she's taller then I. Is that common, in evolu--
[That interuption? Suddenly, the egg in Ramzas' arms is glowing... and there is suddenly a Dratini there, curling around him. It looks like quite the common Dratini, except for the mark under the horn.
With a slight grunt, Ramza shifts so the Dratini is less... trying to strangle him, trying to wrap around him. Yes, he looks that awkward.]
Seems you waited until an important day to hatch - are you trying to say something, or is it just another coincidence? Ah - that reminds me. Though I suppose birthdays are common to celebrate, has anybody here brought important days from their land to the people of this land?
[He gives a full lineface, before reaching and turning off the video feed.]

[A little after that post, Ramza is coming to get you, Walter. >| He is ready to leave, if you are. To be honest, though? His lineface has the slightest of frowns, his walk the slightest of limps. Guess who took an Iron Tail, off-camera?]
I'd not thought it'd rebel, straight out of the egg.

[...Ramza looks slightly awkward, as he mentions the next part.]
By the by - I've decided to trek to Lavender Town, though it shall take some time. Thank you for mentioning it.
[video]
[That's the case about a lot of things in this world. Too many of them.]
You're welcome. Having you found yourself to work, to be able to afford the ticket? It's quite expensive for newcomers.
[video]
[Wait, damnit, he did it again. He's used to his own currency.]
I mean - PokeDollars.
[video]
[...Wait, hang on a second, he could swear there's something strange about that...]
[video]
Your land used Gil, as well?
[video]
[A beat.]
...It's a surprisingly common currency, it seems.
[video]
[Ramza is now rather interested - trying to pull the Dratini off of him.]
Perhaps all of the worlds you've heard of - and mine - have connections. Have you noticed more, Cecil?
[video]
[That, and the whole paladin thing.]
Large birds known as Chocobos can also be found in quite a few lands, though not always in the same colors. Perhaps that depends on their environment.
[video]
[A pause, before there's a bit of... excitement in Ramzas voice?]
My land also had Chocobo - Yellow, Black and Red, in order of power. 'Twas a shock to hear my travel companion had not heard of them. Have you noticed how Skarmory look quite like them, if the Chocobo was armoured?
[video]
[Until they started attacking town.]
Red Chocobos? We have white ones instead. And I'd say Doduos resemble them even more, if you ignore the second head. Or perhaps if you had a bird that was halfway between Skarmory and Doduo...
[video]
Don't mind as Ramza suddenly bows his head to the screen. He'd heard of airships - large machines from the times before. And a lord captain...]
What made you lose that role, Lord Cecil?
[...ramza... ramza no...]
[video]
[Especially when addressing a current sales assistant.]
They decided that my talents would be more useful in public service. It's useful work, certainly, but it's also less interesting.
