Vieraslayer

Fran will encounter Reena Alvyne fairly soon. And next chapter brings Vaan and Penelo into the story more. The story really takes off after this point

The Diary of Alvyne Vieraslayer

My plans are coming to fruition. Soon that Viera will be my prey and I can call myself a true Reena. And my name will be true! I will be a Viera-slayer!

Bhujerba is a big city, although not as unbearable as Rabanastre. I haven't seen a single Viera yet. Rabanastre had a few. It was hard for me to not attack Fran even. And when that young Viera woman who Balthier said was the sister of a hunter walked by, I nearly took off after her. Her and the little Viera child following her!

I feel so much better now anyway. My feet don't hurt, and I can deal with taking on an alternate form for some time. It was nice to be in my true Reena-Kaana body on that airship, but now I am a Viera again. Humes have been giving me looks, but I'm used to that even when I'm not a Viera. You don't see Reena every day! Probably the only way Humes know of the Reena is from textbooks! We didn't used to travel really.

My nose is picking up the scent Reena know and love. I see big white ears in the crowd… there! I want Viera and I want it soon! I have to control myself.

No. Not the Viera I want. And there's another with her. They're young. A boy and a girl. Look very similar. Probably twins. I've never seen a male Viera outside of the Wood before. Heck, I've never seen a male Viera before. There aren't a lot of them.

I'm not interested in killing children. Not enough meat on them. Plus, this is a big city and they're out in the open. I'd be spotted and probably killed.

Those Viera children intrigue me though. They don't look any different than average Viera, but still… I sense something amiss.

I have heard that some Viera will mate with Humes. And sometimes the Viera has a half-blood child. Usually there is something that suggests Hume ancestry, even though these children often look more like Viera than Humes. These children here look like pure Viera, but I don't think they are. I think they have Hume blood in them. I can practically smell it.

I can't kill a Hume or anybody with Hume blood in them, and Viera know that. That was why Viera would go and get knocked up to Humes in the first place. If even a half-Hume told me to stay away from a Viera, I'd have to do it. It's the major flaw of the Reena. We are so loyal to Humes, if one told us to throw ourselves off of a cliff, we'd do it. Luckily the Humes preferred to use us for something other than something to be amused at when it jumped off the cliff! They had us do many things, sometimes suicidal I'll admit, but most Humes aren't that cruel!

I had to track down Fran when she got to Bhujerba. I can't lose her! Who knows when I'll find another Viera perfect enough?
