I might have been in a better mood if the man who organized it all didn't think it was perfectly fine to have all that carnage as long as he could get what he wanted.

[ Shots fired.

But whoa, wait, back up a second- ]

When did you have kids??

I might have been in a better mood if it didn't involve that kind of sacrifice at all. Worlds can be saved without sacrificing something in their place, it should be the same.

[Pause, then realises what he just said.]

Uh, they're not my actual kids. They're keyblade wielders who are younger than me, so I need to look out for them.

I expected something might happen. I just didn't think it would be that bad.

[ To put it lightly. ]

I don't believe in destroying more of the world than we're actually saving. I don't know if the Seelie credo is true or not, but I'm going to look into it.

[ As for the kids- ]

Ah, okay. Sorry, I didn't know.

[ Pause, pause. ]

Is one of them a girl? Short, dark hair, blue eyes?

Let me know what you find out. I'd be interested to see just how much of what they tell us is the truth.

[He's been burned once more, and he doesn't want to put his faith in the wrong people ever again.]

...Yes. Have you met her?

I'm actually going to ask Kirei - I've seen him a few times in Leathann, and I know he preaches about the Void. I'll see what he has to say.

[ Zack feels exactly the same way, really. He was wary of Gilgamesh from the start, but the man wooed him with gentle words and noble intentions. He was stupid enough to fall for it, and now, he can't help but feel used, guilty by association. ]

Yes! A few months ago, I think - she was delivering letters in Leathann, and I noticed she had a keyblade.

She seemed really nice.

He's good for information, and quite knowledgeable about gods, which some people treat the Void as. I think he'd be willing to tell you what he knows.

[Terra wanted to believe he wasn't being led astray again, wanted to believe it so badly, and he was just as stupid to fall for it.]

That's around the time I met her. She's a good kid.

I'll let you know what he says, then.

[ Even if he doesn't trust the man's connection to Gilgamesh, still, they must be at odds with one another if Gilgamesh has cursed the Void and Kirei preaches about it. ]

I'll come see her sometime. I'm glad she has someone to look after her.

Thanks.

[Even if he might not end up trusting Kirei, Zack's opinion is one he does trust.]

I think she'd like that. She's my responsibility just like Riku and Sora are.

I think I'll find somewhere for all of us, once things settle down. You too, if you want.

No problem.

Sounds like you've got quite a collection there. I think I met Riku too, that first night at the feast.

[ But wait, something doesn't quite add up- ]

Isn't Aqua still with you?

His friend Sora is here now too. That makes three.

[There's a heavy pause. There's no easy way for him to say it.]

Aqua's gone.

[ The shock at Terra's answer is immediate. ]

Gone how? When?

End of last month. I went to her rooms to find her and I found her shard instead.

[At least she didn't die in battle and not return.]

I'm sorry I didn't say anything sooner.

I'm sorry, Terra.

[ What else can he say? ]

Once you find a place to settle, I'll definitely come see you.

Thanks man.

I'll let you know when we find somewhere. The only place I can think of is the Station. I'm not sure if I want to go back to Leathann.

[yet anyway]

I'm not going back.

[ Zack is adamant and very unlikely to change his mind any time soon. ]

He wanted a city in the sky to lord over everyone else, and that's all it was ever about.

The people there would be better off if they threw him off the damn island.

Trust me, I felt like doing that myself.

I had to get out of there before I followed through with it. Bastard or not, I won't take another life while under the influence of the Darkness inside me.

I almost did. The only reason I didn't is because there are people who actually care about him.

[ And he values their friendship more than he would the satisfaction of seeing the man knocked down to the level he deserved. ]

Let him do what he wants. It isn't out concern anymore.

[ah friendship. the double edged sword]

No. I'm more concerned with the state of the world right now.

Me too.

We'll figure this out.

Yeah. You're right, we will.

There's still worlds out there that need us.
