"If you have anything you wish to ask the Garif elder, now is the time." one of the other Garif told them quietly.
No one spoke up so Vaan held up his hand, "Yeah, um, I have a question."
His companions all exchanged worried glances.
The elder nodded his consent and the young man took a deep breath.
"Where are all the girl Garifs?"
Ashe smacked a hand to her face in embarrassment while Vaan frowned, "And the male Viera, for that matter?"
His eyes widened, "Wait, are you male Viera?"
Penelo grabbed his arm and started to drag him away from the gathering while Ashe quickly said their farewells, "Don't worry, we're leaving, thank you for your time!"
"I have a right to know these things!" Vaan demanded, earning no answers from his friends or the Garif.
Author's note: Once again, I'm sorry for the lack of updates. Very busy with work the last couple days. Anyway, my brother asked this question while playing XII; Where are the female Garif? I think maybe they just look like the males...or...something. But, it IS interesting. And, I think I read somewhere something about male Viera, but you never see one in game, so of course Vaan wouldn't know, obviously.
