First off, AN! Get out here! I need to talk to you.
(AN: Yes?)
I need you to stop talking during the story. I have no idea who you are and its distracting people from the story. You are free to stay, but only interrupt if you have something relevant to say. I'll talk to before and after chapters, like this. Ok?
(AN: yes)
You ok?
(AN: yep)
Cast proved to be a good traveling partner. He could fight surprisingly well and could cook a good meal nine times out of ten. He was sympathetic and showed none of the usual prejudice when he learned that Raine and Genis were half-elves. After traviling together for two weeks, looking for the ruins that weren't necisarly there, Genis and Cast had become great friends. Genis loved telling Cast about his adventures; everything from the world regeneration, to how he met Emil and Marta, to how Lloyd was accused of the blood purge in Palmacosta and how he was innocent, and even how Emil was allowed to return from the Ginnungagap to live a human life. Cast listened with complete fascination.
Despite this, he reveled almost nothing about himself. The only hint that Genis got was an offhanded remark that the name Emil Castagnier sounded almost familiar and he had probably met him somewhere before.
"Come on, I've told all about us. Can't you tell us a little bit about yourself?" asked Genis, once again.
"Alright, but there's not much to tell," sighed Cast. "I only have two years worth of memories. Two years ago I found myself on a beach somewhere near Palmacosta. It was just after the blood purge, so I guess I got caught in it and somehow escaped. I can't be sure because even though I've been back to Palmacosta several times I still don't remember anything. After I recovered I set out to search for a way to regain my memories, but so far I haven't had any luck. I don't remember my real name; I call myself Cast because at first I felt like I was only an outcast. I'm over that now, but the name Cast stuck. See? Not nearly as interesting as your story."
"I wouldn't say that," replied Raine, who had been listening the whole time. "Anyway, we are going to go meet our friends latter this week. Would you like to come with us?"
"Sure, but what about the ruins?"
"I'm starting to doubt there are any. Besides, we really should be going soon," said Raine. "The meeting is back at home, in Iselia. Have you ever been there before?"
"No, but I've heard about it before. I can't wait; I actually would like to see the whole world. It's kind of a dream of mine."
"Then it's settled. Let's go!" said Genis, very eager to see his friends.
(AN: There. I behaved myself.)
Thank you. Well I suppose that's it…
(AN: WAIT!)
What?
(AN: You forgot to tell them about the poll. Again.)
Right. There is a poll on my page pertaining to this story. It has to do with what will happen later on in the story and I have several ways that I could take it at this point. I would love some input so if you like this story then please go over there and vote.
(AN: Now you're done)
Bye (AN: Bye)
