Hikaru: And Luke's quest for Auldrantian summoning pacts continues!
--
Luke: Okay, Raine, have you and Jade decided where the Spirits might manifest?
Raine: It's fairly common sense ... if like fonons attract, then you would have to choose a spot where many of those fonons had gathered ...
Jade: Precisely. Now, Luke, Tear taught you enough about fonology. Why don't you tell us where each Spirit might appear?
Luke: Uhm, okay ... Efreet, the Spirit of the Fifth Fonon, would probably reside in the volcano near Daath.
Raine: Like I said, common sense.
Luke: Next ... Gnome, the Spirit of the Second Fonon, would manifest ... either inside the Meggiora Highlands, or in the Zao Ruins ...
Jade: Most likely the Zao Ruins, since many Second Fonons would be canceled out by the Third Fonons in the highlands ...
Luke: ... ! That's right! Aston did say something about the highlands having extreme winds!
Raine: Well done, Luke. Next one.
Luke: Rem would appear at the Tower of Rem ... not only is the tower its namesake, but it is the tallest structure on Auldrant.
Raine: Curious. I would have thought the Capital of Light, Baticul, would be a fitting location.
Luke: Shadow ... hmm. I'd say the Qliphoth, but after we lowered the Outer Lands, there was a Qliphoth no more. Somewhere underground, I guess.
Jade: Hmm. That poses a slight problem. If we can't find Shadow, then it would impede our quest for Auldrantian summoning pacts.
Luke: Sylph would appear at the Meggiora Highlands. Despite the mountains there, there's enough elevation and enough wind.
Raine: My, you disliked studying, but you seem more knowledgeable than Lloyd.
Luke: And Undine ... the ocean is the largest concentration of Fourth Fonons, but even it, a sentience, can't be everywhere around the globe at once.
Raine: How about Grand Chokmah, or Keterburg?
Jade: ... An interesting idea. You're quite right, of course.
Luke: It's manifestation would be at Keterburg, then. Grand Chokmah's got a lot of water, sure, but ice is a form of Fourth Fonon. And it's covering more area than a single city. I'd even say it'd manifest on Mt. Roneal.
Raine: Then it's settled. All we need now are the pact rings and to get the Spirits to come down from the fon belt.
Jade: ... Luke.
Luke: What's up, Jade?
Jade: While I am an expert fonist, I don't quite think I should become the summoner.
Luke: Why not?
Jade: You're the one working hard for this. Besides, summoning a sentience doesn't require that you control all their fonons ... you just use your body as a channeling device to help them manifest.
Luke: B-but I'm not even a fonist ...
Raine: It's the same principle as using the Fields of Fonons during battle.
Jade: Yes, and you've become an expert at channeling fonons into the form you want them to take.
Luke: W-wow! I'm gonna become a summoner! All right!
Klarth: Sigh ... they don't even need the Spirits.
Sheena: Yeah ...

Hikaru: I think Klarth and Sheena might be getting a little jealous! Haha.
