Like I said, I might sometimes take a day or two break from writing. I might be updating alot over the break. I might not. We'll see what happens.


"..."

"Is there something wrong, Robin?" Say'ri asked the tactician.

"...Who are you?" Robin asked.

"What? I am Say'ri." The woman replied.

"Am I supposed to...know that name?" Robin asked.

"Do you not remember? We fought against Walhart together. I am the princess of the Chon'sin."

"Chosen? Isn't that from Tales?" Robin asked. "I mean, that's not necessarily Nintendo, but it was on a system made by them, so close enough. Man, a crossover would be pretty badass…" He muttered to himself.

"...I have no idea what you are talking about." Say'ri said.

"Well, I have no idea who you are, so I guess we're even." Robin replied.

"I am Yen'fay's sister." She said.

"...Oh! Yen'fey!" Robin exclaimed. "He's that dude we fought in the volcano! That was a badass battle! He's in the army now, right?"

"A version of him." She replied

"Right, right. We tend to do that a bit." Robin said. "So, anyway, Sayree-"

"Say'ri." She corrected.

"That's what I said, isn't it?" Robin asked.

"No, you said Sayree. My name is spelled S-A-Y-apostrophe- R-I."

"Oh, like Lon'qu?" Robin asked.

"Yes." She replied. "He is Chon'sin."

"If you were Colette, that would make him Zelos." Robin commented. "Pretty opposite characters."

"I still don't know what you're talking about." Say'ri replied.

"Don't worry about it." Robin said. "Now, you said you were a princess, right? Why are you not there, being, well, a princess?"

"I would, but I am under onus to you, Tactician Robin." She replied.

"Onus…?" Robin said to himself. He suddenly glared at the wall to the left of Say'ri. "Really?! Do you really think anybody is going to get that reference?! Common, man, make it easy!" He looked back at Say'ri. "Sorry about that."

"What just happened?" She asked.

"The author is a comedy nerd, that's what happened." Robin muttered. "Anyway, go do your responsibilities. You're out of onus, or whatever."

"...Very well then." Say'ri said, standing up and leaving the office.

"...Man, I never knew Lon'qu had a sister." Robin said to himself.

Say'ri walked down the hall outside of Robin's office. She was surprised how upset she was about being forgotten about.

"It sucks to be forgotten, doesn't it?"

Say'ri looked over at one of the guards of the castle. At least, she assumed he was a guard. It was a safe assumption to make, considering he was wearing armor.

"...I suppose it does, as you say, 'suck.'" She said to the guard. Her eyes widened slightly in recognition. "I believe I know you. Kellam, correct? You were one of the Shepherds?"

"Y-You remember me?" Kellam asked. "I thought people would forget about me after the war…"

Say'ri smiled at him. "How could someone forget you? You are an skilled ally on the battlefield. I fought with you multiple times, due to my smaller frame. You have saved me many times, and you have my thanks."

"Huh." Kellam said. "I never...noticed you." He blushed slightly. "Do you want to...do something? Catch up on old times."

She nodded. "That would be nice." SHe tilted her head. "Are you not on guard duty, though?"

"Oh, I don't work here." Kellam replied. "I just like to eavesdrop on some of Robin's meetings. They can get pretty insane."

"Interesting." Say'ri said. "Tell me more about it."

"I think I will."


I just made this a pairing that would, as far as I know, only work in the context of this story. The two forgotten characters. One by canon and one in gameplay. Seriously, in my opinion, Say'ri is one of the more overlooked units, probably because she doesn't have her own unique child, which is a missed opportunity.

On an "unrelated" note, I'm probably going to do a conclusion chapter or two after I write a chapter for each unit. You can probably guess what I'm planing, or why this chapter gave me the idea for it.

Up next: Laurent!
