"I don't know if she knew, but right now, there's no better plan that anyone knows of.

"Which ties back into what I told you. I am very full of myself and I will find a better plan. If I get to Zanarkand and that's all that can be done, I won't do it, and I'll figure something else out. I'll comb through all of the ruins to find ancient records that might explain anything, I'll sneak into Bevelle's archives, I'll go to the Farplane and find Lady Yunalesca myself or anyone from back then, I will figure something else out."

"I'm coming with you. There's, there's no fucking way I'm not. My Zanarkand has been destroyed, clearly there's something I'm meant to do here, something Auron thought I could do here, it can't be a coincidence. And if no one else is trying this... or even if they are, if there's anyone else who is trying to find a better way, then we will find them and work with them. But I'm not leaving, I'm not going anywhere, I am staying with you. You can wait until we get to the next temple to make it official but I will be your guardian."

"Alright. Yeah. Let's do it."

"And um. Thank you."

"I couldn't do anything else. Now come on, main character, it's time to get up and go."

He smiles, slightly. "Yes, sir."
