Never Going Back
As Fayte lay there with Alex next to him he felt himself grow red. Alex was right next to him, she told him she loved him, and she had no cloths on. This could be interesting, Fayte thought to himself.
"But…" Fayte mumbled.
"Its ok, I don't bite" Alex purred as she moved closer to him.
As Alex's breast touched Fayte's back and her leg rose over his leg he jumped. Only having been intimate with a few women in his life he felt this was strange, he had only met up with Alex in the last day.
Fayte began to roll over to look at her. She was smiling with the widest grin he had ever seen, she was also purring, and he knew mithra only purred when they were either extremely happy…or extremely horney.
"Uh…what are you doing?" Fayte said as he looked at her, it was dark but his eyes had adjusted enough.
"Ive always felt things for you Fayte" Alex explained, "When I found out you had died…" she sobbed.
"Its…its ok…" Fayte said as he reached his arm around her to try and comfort her.
"When I found out you weren't dead…" Alex began, "I love you…I always have…"
Alex leaned in and began to kiss Fayte as she did in the hall, however she was stark naked, and Fayte had only a small line of clothing allowing him to say he wasn't. It was getting hot, too hot.
As Alex crawled onto of Fayte after finishing their kiss she leaned down to kiss him again. Fayte hadn't felt love for Alex but he had showed a lot of interest when they were younger, he also found her quite attractive, anything that came about this evening couldn't possibly be considered bad. Fayte reached around her back and kissed her.
"Do you have a problem with this?" Alex asked as she stroked his chest.
"No…not at all, but I still find it rather strange that your coming on so strong, you only met me today…" Fayte responded.
"You saved my life today, you swam with me, you held me" Alex explained, "I knew you hadn't changed when you did those things, your still the boy I loved when I was younger"
"But I'm…not…" Fayte thought to himself, "I'm not the same…"
Alex moved off his stomach and was moving her head towards the end of the bed along his abdomen. She continued to move further and further down. Fayte was stiff, he couldn't move, or it seemed as though he couldn't.
"Are…are you sure…?" Fayte managed to say as Alex reached his groin.
"Yes" she said, "am I ever sure"
As Alex removed the pair of shorts Fayte was wearing things got interesting. Alex cooed and moaned as she handled Fayte, he hadn't even been sexually involved with a Mithra before, this was something new. Fayte also wasn't sure if what he was doing was right, he didn't actually love Alex, or he hadn't thought about it, was he taking advantage of her?
"Alex…" Fayte managed to say.
"What is it?" Alex giggled.
As she asked him, Fayte reached down to her and picked her up. She laid next to him after he put her down. She purred and her tail continued to stroke him. Fayte didn't know what to say.
"Are you bored already!" Alex asked frustrated.
"No, no its not that…" Fayte tried to explain, "its just…we don't even know one another really…" Fayte said.
"We will! Your staying with us from now on right?" Alex asked.
Fayte hadn't thought about it, and a mithra stroking him wasn't helping his train of thought. He hadn't even considered staying with them, he figured he would likely go his own way, Karrick with him or staying with Soul.
"I…I don't know" Fayte responded.
"I'm sure you wi'll, if I make you" Alex whispered as she straddled him.
She laid out on his chest, and kissed him again. Fayte was speechless, he was thinking not only about what she was about to do, but what he was going to do. As he was she sat up put her hands on his chest.
"Are you ready" Alex asked with a grin on her face.
"Uh…" Fayte began but was cut short as she dropped herself down on him.
As he entered her she groaned and her head fell backwards. Fayte lifted his hands to her waist to support her and lift her. He rubbed her breasts and stomach softly. She cooed and moaned as she went faster and faster going down on him. Fayte continued as he too moaned as the mithra again and again dropped on him. Alex's hands were on his chest to balance herself until with a final thrust downward, she fell forward, both herself and Fayte laid there breathing heavily.
"You cant" Alex said, " you cant leave…"
"I…I wont…" Fayte said.
As Alex rolled off of Fayte and laid next to him she sobbed. She was crying, and Fayte didn't know why. He held her next to him to try and comfort her.
"What's wrong?" Fayte asked holding her in his arms.
"I just don't want you to leave" Alex said.
"I'm not planning on leaving, not for a while at least" Fayte said.
"Alright…"
As they continued to talk both of them were getting tired.
"Fayte, did you ever think about me?" Alex asked.
"Not a lot, but I thought about you every so often" Fayte said.
"Really?"
"Yea, I always used to wonder what you were doing" Fayte said.
"Awww" Alex purred.
"We better get some sleep, I'm dead after that…" Fayte said as he closed his eyes.
As Alex fell asleep Fayte laid awake wondering what he would do. He held her and listened to her breathing. He could feel her heart beat. As his eyes drooped a final time he was out. Alex laying in Fayte's arms.
As dawn covered the town of Windurst people of all races were beginning to get up. No one had a plan for the time being, the day could become quite interesting. As Karrick got out of bed, nude from the tiring evening before he looked down at soul, she was so beautiful. Peaceful too, he tucked her in as he got his gear ready.
Fayte had gotten up and gotten his gear on when Alex began to wake up. She was sti'll nude and wasn't afraid to show it. She got up to get the cloths Fayte had given her. She looked at Fayte after getting dressed and kissed him.
"Alright, what are we doing to do today" Fayte asked as he put his arm around her back and led her to the door.
As they left the room and walked down to the room everyone else was sleeping in Tornex walked out from a corner, in his sleeping cloths sti'll, he must be up for the washrooms Alex thought. Tornex walked to the door to find it locked.
"What the…" Tornex muttered as he looked to see Fayte and Alex.
"What's wrong?" Fayte asked.
"Its locked!" Tornex said.
"Uh oh…" Alex giggled as she put her ear to the door.
Alex could hear moaning, she knew what was going on. Fayte looked at Tornex wearing nothing but a pair of blue shorts. Alex continued to listen until her heard the groaning stop. Tornex slamming his fist into the door a few times.
"Cmon unlock it guys!" Tornex said.
"Al- alright, just a sec" Tohma answered.
Tohma came to the door with a gown on, her face was red and she was breathing heavily, everyone was beginning to understand what was going on. As they walked into the room Styrth was wearing his shorts sitting on the bed, he too was breathing strangly.
"I see we interrupted something" Tornex said as he looked at Tohma.
"No… we were… just…" Tohma tried to explain.
"Nice tent Styrth" Alex said as she hid behind Fayte.
Styrth quickly covering his groin, he blushed and looked away. Tohma was blushing as she sat on the bed next to Styrth. Tornex laughed.
"Shutup!" Tohma said.
"Guys cmon, don't fight" Fayte said.
"Well cmon, lets clear out so we can get dress please!" Styrth said as he picked up his shorts.
As Fayte and Alex left fully clothed Tornex went in to get dressed. Fayte decided to see if Karrick was up, Soul lived in apartment 863a, a few blocks away from where they were.
"I'll be back soon Alex, I'm just going to see how Karrick is doing" Fayte said as he began to walk away.
"Alright, i'll go back to our room and get my stuff ready" Alex said as she went to the room they slept in.
As Fayte walked down the long open hall he felt the suns warm rays shining down on him. As he reached Souls place he knocked on the door. Karrick answered the door with his equipment on but his gear sti'll in the house.
"Hey there Fayte!" Karrick said as he opened the door, "cmon in!"
"How did you sleep?" Fayte asked as he looked around the room.
"Nicely, Souls apartment is nice huh, one of the few with 2 rooms" Karrick winked as he looked down the small hall to the bedroom.
"Haha!" Fayte laughed as he sat down.
As they continued talking Karrick noticed something glowing on Faytes belt. It was in one of his pouches and it was blue.
"Whats that you got there?" Karrick asked, pointing at the light.
"Whoa, its glowing" Fayte said as he pulled the stone he found earlier out of the pouch.
"What is it?" Karrick asked.
"I think it's a teleporting stone" Fayte responded, "but I've never seen one this color."
As Fayte passed Karrick the stone he looked at it. It was blue, no other stone was like this, it must go somewhere new! Karrick put it in his teleporting stones pouch for later use if they decided to see where it took them.
"So, whats the plan?" Fayte asked.
"Huh?" Karrick muttered.
"Are you staying here for a few weeks? Like wha—" Fayte began as he felt his second pearl start to warm up.
As Fayte pulled it out he saw Resurgam, a friend of Fayte and Karricks. He too is a ninja like Fayte, stronger, yes, but he isn't faster.
"Fayte, we got news" Resurgam said.
"What is it?" Fayte asked.
"Beastmen, big time, probably worse than the raid in Jeuno"
"Where are they headed?"
"Kazham, rumors say they want to take over the island"
As Fayte looked up to see Karrick he was thinking about what Resurgam said. He clearly had planned to stay with Soul.
"I'll go Karrick, you don't need to come" Fayte said.
"Are you sure? Like I do want to spend time with Soul but wi'll you be able to handle it?" Karrick asked.
"I wont be the only one there, if its bigger we wi'll have more support" Fayte replied.
"Alright, I guess I'll stay here, but if something goes wrong use the pearl" Karrick said.
"I'll get going, if I catch the airship I can be there in under 5 hours" Fayte said as he sat up and walked to the door.
"Good luck!" Karrick said as he walked down the hallway.
As Fayte left he began to think of the night before, how he had told Alex he wouldn't leave her. It was cruel, but he had too. She would understand, Mithra reside on that island, if he didn't go save them her people would be destroyed!
"Hey Fayte!" Alex said as she jumped into his arms.
"Hello there" Fayte said holding her, her legs wrapped around his waist.
"Where are the other three, I need to talk to you all" Fayte said as he let her get down.
"Tohma and Styrth are back in the moghouse, Tornex met up with some girl" Alex said, "What do you need to talk to us about?"
"You'll see when we get there" Fayte said as he began walking toward to the moghouse Tohma and Styrth were in.
As Alex and Fayte walked into the room Tohma and Styrth were on separate beds talking. They looked to see the two enter.
"Hey guys" Styrth said.
"Hi" Alex said as she giggled and sat next to Tohma.
"Ive got to go…" Fayte said.
"What!" Alex said as she turned around.
"I'm leaving in a few minutes" Fayte explained, "We have word that the beastmen mean to strike Kazham, probably tonight"
"But you said-" Alex began to sob.
"Why are you leaving so soon!" Tohma said as she stood up.
"I have to, if I don't I'm leaving hundreds of people at risk, if they died I wouldn't be able to live with myself" Fayte said.
"You said you were going to stay!" Alex protested.
"I'll be back, in a couple days probably, that is if you don't all have different plans" Fayte said.
"What do you mean…?" Styrth asked.
"Well aren't you going to be journeying around?" Fayte asked.
"We don't have anywhere to go right now" Styrth said harshly, "and your just leaving?"
"I don't have a choice and I'm not going to argue" Fayte said.
"But…I don't want-" Alex began to cry as she ran from the room.
As Fayte said his final goodbyes he walked out the door, Alex was sitting down with her face in her hands. She was crying. Fayte walked over to her and knelt down. He lifted her chin up and looked at her watery eyes.
"I will come back" Fayte said.
"But-" Alex tried to protest.
"I don't leave loved ones behind" Fayte said as he leaned down and kissed her.
Fayte stood up and began to walk toward the exit of the moghouse. Alex sat on the ground and watched him go. "Loved ones" she thought. He loves me…Fayte turned the corner and went out of Alex's view. She stood up and walked into the moghouse Tohma and Styrth were in.
"That ass, who the hell does he think he is?" Styrth said holding a crying Tohma.
"He'll be back, I know he will" Alex said as she sat on the bed.
"You seemed pretty interested in him" Tohma said as she stood up and sobbed, "did something happen?"
"Maybe" Alex said as she looked at Tohma whose face turned to a grin.
"Tell me everything!" Tohma said, her mind seemingly shifting completely away from Fayte to Alex and her love life.
Styrth watched the girls and smiled. He did think Fayte was being a jerk, just leaving like that. The Fayte he remembered wouldn't do that. The Fayte he remembered would have stayed. But Styrth was coming to realize that this man, this person was not the Fayte he remembered.
"How was he?" Tohma whispered.
"Better than anyone else I have had sex with" Alex whispered back.
"I think he told me he loves me"
"Really!" Tohma said aloud.
"I think so…" Alex mumbled.
"You better find out" Tohma whispered.
"He is leaving thou-"
"Then go get him!" Tohma said.
Alex realized she wasn't sure if he did or not, thinking about it she had to know. Alex got up and sprinted out the door. She ran as fast as she could down the stairs. She ran through the small walking path and saw the assortment of docks. She continued and ran across the bridge, she kept running. As she came to the Airship section of town she saw the airships propellers begin to spin.
"NO!" She yelled as she ran into the building.
She flashed her pass at the guard and ran through the doors. The airship was just about to leave. She saw Fayte on the upper deck looking down at the water. She ran as fast as she could to get aboard, Fayte must have seen her because he was there waiting. The ship was already a few yards away from the dock.
"Fayte!" Alex yelled as she backed up.
Fayte looked out and saw Alex backing up, he thought to himself, don't do it. Alex took a running start and leapt. She soared through the air for what seemed like hours until she grabbed the small ledge on the side of the airship. Fayte looked over the edge, he had a choice to make. He could help her up and take her with him, or leave her here in the safety of her friends.
"What are you doing" Fayte said as he leaned down.
"Help me up!" Alex said as she hung there.
"If I do your going to be coming with me, are you sure you can handle that?" Fayte asked.
"Yes!" Alex said.
Fayte reached down and grabbed her wrist, he pulled her up and she clung to him. She looked at him and he looked at her with a smile.
"I guess I have a partner in crime" Fayte said with a giggle.
"Fayte, I have to ask you…" Alex said.
"What is it?" Fayte asked.
"Do…do you love me?" Alex said as she dropped her head and blushed.
"I…" Fayte started, "I don't know"
As Fayte turned to walk up the stairs above deck Alex looked at her hands. He wasn't sure, did that mean yes? They did only meet up a few days ago…it was hard for something to realize something as complex as love in only a few short days. How could she expect him to come to a rational decision in such a short time.
"Are you coming?" Fayte said as he looked down at her.
"Yes!" she said excited as she ran up the stairs.
Fayte jumped from the side to scare her, she looked at him and jumped on him. She pinned him against the airship floor. She laughed as he grabbed her by the waist and lifter her off him. As he sat up he looked at her. She was standing, her hair blowing in the wind. Fayte just looked at her, her breasts, her stomach, he legs, her arms, her nose, her tail, her eyes. The eyes he knew something about. Alex smiled at him and sat next to him.
"Even if you don't love me, I'll always love you Fayte, I always have I guess…" Alex said.
"I can see something between us Alex, I wouldn't get my hopes down so fast" Fayte laughed.
Alex looked at him as he got up and walked down below deck. He just said he could see something happen between them, she thought to herself. As she got up and walked down after him she realized she was on an airship headed to Kazham, the island of her kin.
"Alright, thanks Karrick" Fayte said into the pearl as Alex walked into the room.
"What was that about?" Alex asked.
"I just told Karrick that your with me and he has to tell everyone not to be expecting you for a couple days…" Fayte said.
Alex sat next to Fayte and purred. They were the only two passengers on this ship, a rare occasion. She laid her head in his lap and looked at him. He stroked her hair. Alex looked at his eyes and his mouth. She realized just how little his face changed since they were kids.
"So what's the plan when we get there?" Alex said.
Faytes face went stern, he looked down at her. This was the reason he hadn't thought it was a good idea for her to come.
"Don't get killed"
As the airship left the harbor Styrth and Tohma heard another knock on the door. As Tohma got up to see who it was she was surprised to see Karrick.
"Good morning Karrick!" Tohma said with a smile.
"Hello, I've got some news" Karrick said as he walked into the room.
"What is it?" Styrth said with interest.
"Alex is going to Kazham with Fayte" Karrick said.
"What? But why! How even?" Tohma shouted.
"She jumped aboard at the last minute, Fayte helped her up onto the ship, but she is going with him. If Fayte feels for her like I think he does he wont be coming back if she gets hurt." Karrick said.
"Alright, so what do we do?" Styrth said, a little annoyed.
"You wait, that's all you can do" Karrick said.
As Karrick said his goodbyes and left the room he looked down to the exit of the moghouse, he could see Tornex sitting on the steps with a female hume. He smiled and continued to walk toward Soul's house.
"Tornex!" the girl said with a laugh as Tornex tickled her sides.
Renne was a hume, very pretty, and very smart. She was a summoner, like Tornex, this was probably why he was so attracted to her, aside from the curves of course. Tornex has showed interest in her when they met up in Jeuno, but when he saw her in Windurst he had to see her!
"Would you like to do something today?" Tornex mumbled under his breath.
"What was that?" Renne said as she looked at him.
"Would you like to do something…with me today…" Tornex asked, he was blushing.
"Sure! I would love to!" Renne said as she got up and sat next to him.
Tornex put his arm around Renne as they got up and walked out of the moghouse. They walked through the middle of town, a large fountain and creek flowed gracefully.
"Where do you want to go?" Tornex asked.
"We could go to shoreline outside town" Renne said.
"Alright, lets go then" Tornex said with a smile.
As they two walked out of town they saw some new adventurers fighting weak wild animals. They laughed, memories of their beginning adventures flowed through their minds like a rapid river. Renne lead Tornex through the grassy lands to the side of town. Rocks and mounds were about them as Tornex said the large cliff overlooking the sea.
"Whoa…" Tornex said as he looked over the edge.
"Its been a while since I was here…" Renne said.
"I've been here lots of times and I cant believe I've never seen this!" Tornex said.
"Its beautiful isn't it?" Renne said.
Tornex began to cast Carbuncle, he figured little Carby should have the chance to see this too. As Carbuncle emerged it ran about and played, it was free to do what it wanted. Tornex walked over to Renne, he sat next to her and put his arm around her back. She dropped her head to his shoulder.
"We're" almost there Fayte said as he walked back down the stairs.
"Really? How much longer?" Alex said with a stretch.
"30 minutes, give or take" Fayte said as he began sharpening his weapons.
"So who else will be there?" Alex said.
"Resugram will be, he has a squad, probably a few more" Fayte said.
"Can I help?" Alex asked.
"I'm not going to force you not to, but I'm going to ask you not to" Fayte said.
As they continued to talk about what was going to happen the ship began to descend. It came in and landed on the water with a rocking, Fayte slide armed himself with sharpened weapons and got up. As they left Fayte saw Resurgam and a few other supporters.
"Hey, we're here" Fayte said.
"We?" Resurgam said as he saw Alex walk out after him.
"This is Alex, she's…she my girlfriend" Fayte said as he put his arm around her.
"Alright Fayte! Congratulations you two, but we cant really give you praise right now. They're going to be here in a few minutes…" Resugram said.
"What?" Fayte said.
"Their faster than we thought, I suggest you get your girlfriend a weapon, maybe some better armor"
As Fayte began to run toward the nearby auction house Alex followed him. He run up and threw as much money he could into an extremely nice set of armor and a new weapon for her.
"I just spend like 500 thousand gil on these things" Fayte said, "you better not lose them"
"Whoa!" Alex said looking at it all.
"We need to get you changed, cmon, over here" Fayte said as he walked behind a large rock.
Alex followed him behind and stripped. She smiled at Fayte and took the armor from him. As she covered her undergarments with it she felt a lot heavier, light armor was nice, but this is what she was used to. She took the sword from him and they walked out, Fayte holding the old set he let her use.
"Whoa, you look rather nice" Fayte said as he rubbed a little dirt from the breastplate.
"Thanks! But its your armor" Alex muttered.
"No its not. I bought it for you" Fayte said as he continued to look up and down, snugging up and rubbing dust and dirt off the new armor.
As the two walked back to the docks Resugram caught eye of the armor. He got up to check it out.
"Woohoo! That's a fine piece of gear" Resurgam said gazing at it.
"500k man" Fayte said as he put his arm around her.
"That's only a couple million shy of your own gear!" Resurgam said.
"I don't have any gil on me now" Fayte said.
Resurgam sat down with his friends again as Fayte continued his inspection of the armor. It was very nice, if she got hit she would be fine…for a while.
"How much does your armor cost!" Alex said after hearing million.
"6 million gil I think, the whole set that is" Fayte said.
"I've never had even 1 million gil!" Alex said.
"After this ill take you around" Fayte said with a grin.
"Really?" Alex said, "do you think im your girlfriend"
"Your more than that, I see that now" Fayte said as he walked over to the group on the docks.
"Here they come!" Resugram said as dozens of ships could be seen on the horizon.
As the ships got closer the sun began to get lower, and lower. This was going to get vicious and Fayte knew it. As the ships finally reached the docks everyone was ready. Fayte drew his weapons and waited. Everyone got ready. Silence…
"There! Theres one!" Tomi, a samurai said pointed into the darkness.
The sky lit up in a fire as Hellen began casting spells into the darkness. The group ran for forward to attack. Fayte stabbed an orc quickly, then swung around its body removing another's head. Alex was slashing and hacking through them as well. As the battle continued more ships docked.
"Alex!" Fayte yelled out as he slashed through another.
"Over here Fayte!" Alex said as she stabbed another orc.
Resurgam jumped over one orc and propelled himself right into it as he hit the ground on the other side. Fayte jumped and weaved through the orcs stabbing and killing them as he went toward Alex's voice. As he came to see her in his view he continued fighting. He felt it was safer if he could keep an eye on her.
"Come on!" Dane, the summoner said as his Fenrir riped through the lines.
"Keep it up guys!" Resugram called out as he continued to assassinate the orcs.
The battle was going great, everyone was on top of things, but it was about to change. A final ship hit the shore and a large Behemoth stepped off it. Everyones attention shifted to it. Continuing to ripe through the lines of orc the blackmages concentraited on trying to bring down the large animal.
"Ugh!" A large scream rang out as Desria was smashed backward into the stone wall, dead on impact.
Another scream, another, and another. More of the adventures were getting killed, it wasn't looking good. The numbers were getting lower and lower, for both sides. But the Behemoth remained, if it hit the front lines it was over. Resugram ran up to Fayte.
"We're leaving, we cant win this one!" Resugram said pointing out the whitemages beginning to get ready to cast a mass teleporting spell.
"Alex!" Fayte shouted out looking for her.
"Here!" She called back with a smile stabbing another orc.
As Fayte began to run toward her he saw it. A large orc was coming in from behind her. He ran as fast as he could, he was screaming.
"Move! Don't stand still Alex come to me!"
Alex turned to look at him and began to run, but it wasn't enough. The orc slammed its large cleaver into her back, she fell. Fayte was sobbing as he reached her. He slammed his katanas into the orc that hit her. He cleared the area of orcs and he picked her up and ran for the teleporters. As the silk slowly covered the whole party they were teleported to Konstchtat. Fayte ran down the stairs and laid her out on the grass, she was bleeding badly. Everyone watched him as he held her.
"Lets leave him to her" Resurgam said, "we need to get her help"
But he knew it was too late. As the group began to run toward Bastok Fayte held her close to him. She was awake, in a lot of pain, crying.
"Alex! I'm so sorry" Fayte whept as he held her.
"Fayte…where are we" Alex mumbled.
"We're away from the battle" he sobbed rolling her over to look at the wound.
The gash was huge, as big as the one he got when he was hit for the first time in a battle. He almost didn't make it, and it didn't look good for her. He pulled out a bandage and the highest class of healing potion he could find. As he removed her armor she cried out. He took off her bra and dripped as much potion as he could on to it. He wrapped it up and rolled her back.
"What happened?" she asked.
"You got hit…pretty badly…" Fayte said, crying.
"Fayte…!" Alex cried.
"Don't…don't give up!" Fayte cried as he lifted her into his arms.
Alex felt his tears. As he lowered her back to the ground she smiled at him. She couldn't feel anything. Everything was cold.
"I love you…" she said.
Fayte continued to cry as she lay there on the ground. He couldn't save her. All his life he had been able to save those he loved, but this time he couldn't. He knew the wound was far to bad, if she lived she wouldn't ever be able to walk again. Alex reached to her tail. Something was tied to it, a golden chain.
"Take this" Alex managed to say as she handed it to him.
"No Alex…" Fayte cried.
As he held her for a final moment everything stopped. She stopped crying. The wind stopped blowing, there was no sound. Not even that of her breath. She was gone. Fayte was in disbelief. He looked at her, so peaceful. He stroked her hair as tears ran down his face. She was gone. She had only walked back into his life, and now she was gone.
"Why…" Fayte stuttered, "Why did I bring you with me?"
He looked down at his hands asking himself why. I killed her, he thought to himself. Why did I bring her? As he opened her palm and saw the golden chain he realized why he had brought her. He realized why her found her company so important. He realized he loved her.
Fayte lifted Alex onto his shoulder and wiped the tears from his eyes. As he began to walk toward Bastok he began to think. Think of ways he might be able to bring her back. As the wind blew at the chain around his neck his mind became empty.
/end
Whoa. That one was harder to write than anything else. Ch7 will come soon. Also, I dunno about you, but spending 500 thousand gil on a new piece of armor and then leaving it behind. PFFT! Are you crazy!
