Togetherness before Disaster, Her Fear Realizes

"Father has lost all hope. He is operating from a strangely cold heart. I fear for my father's health…His mind, it's…"

The lady Summoner weeps. Lord Zaon is wary of Yu Yevon's movements. A slow, menacing gait. Muttering threats, curses under his breath. A coldness has enveloped his heart; that is what's made me so ill. Despite my heart's empathy, I know not what to say.

Precious fellow, do not agonize. Zanarkand is a shooting star, now make a wish. For peace, not revenge. Let this city sparkle, even in desolation. It will not be forgotten, fellow…!

"Father! Please, reconsider!"
