He snuck up on me.

[lightandshadow]

Mundane, you should waver no more. Be assured, I will not leave you. If you are unsure, you have others who will help you, so do not let hesitance keep you from this course. 

Beside, I would like to see my friends again.

[proofofthebond]

I'd like that, too, Cecil. You've been missed.

[lightandshadow]

I'm sorry for my absence. With luck, my mundane will be convinced soon.

[proofofthebond]

Having Firion, Cloud and soon Tidus will help with the convincing, right?

[lightandshadow]

Yes. Their presence was much of what caught her interest.

[proofofthebond]

And Kain? He told me some disturbing things, but...he seems a good ally to have.

[lightandshadow]

Kain is a steadfast ally and a good friend. I trust him with my life.

[Despite being backstabbed three times in all.]

[goldneedles]

Cecil!

[Have a tiny little mage!]

[lightandshadow]

[Aww, he loves tiny mages!]

Porom. Are you well?

[mistlegacy]

[Ninja-hug time.]

[lightandshadow]

[Well, summoner-hug time. Unless she's been taking lessons from Edge?]

Rydia?

[mistlegacy]

Of course! It's nice to see you here, Cecil.

[lightandshadow]

I'm glad to see you again, Rydia. Have you been well?

[mistlegacy]

I have! I wish I could join you where you're going, but at least I get to see you here.

[lightandshadow]

You are helping to watch over our world. That is more important than joining me here, though I welcome the chance to see you.

[rising_drive]

Cecil...

[lightandshadow]

Kain! How do you fare, my friend?

[rising_drive]

[Trying not to let all the GUILT he's feeling be too obvious.]

I'm fine. What about you?

[lightandshadow]

[Considering who this is it probably isn't difficult.]

It seems that I may join you soon.

[rising_drive]

You're saying the dragons will draw you in as well? [...] You'll be coming alone? [Not wondering about a certain wife of yours or anything.]

[lightandshadow]

So it seems. And if any of the others will join us there, it is not by her hand.

[rising_drive]

No... this has nothing to do with the conflict of the gods. That much I can be sure of.

[lightandshadow]

Yes. It will be good to see our friends when not in the midst of war.

[rising_drive]

Yes. We'll see them in the midst of new problems.

[lightandshadow]

[Kain, do you always try to find the bad side of everything?]

And we will face them together.

[rising_drive]

[That's the Kainish way to do things. :|]

We will have no choice.
