Dawntrail drops in like an hour or so. Here's a little something I cooked up based on a theory I have about something that I think might happen.

It was a bright, sunny day at the Island Sanctuary.

It had been a few weeks since the Void situation and Naruko was having a well deserved vacation away from everything. Instead of fighting and adventuring, it was nothing but sun, sand and surf for Naruko.. and Krile, Tataru and Nanamo of course.

Though… Naruko was finding it hard to relax. Why you ask? Well, it involved a conversation she had with G'raha a few days before she left for her island.

The red headed hero laid back in a sunchair with a small scowl. In her hand a cocktail that Tataru had whipped up for her.

"Still upset, love?" Turning her head, Naruko spied Nanamo walking towards her, clad in the same swimsuit she wore during the Moonfire Faire a year or so back.

The taller woman huffed and downed her drink, but didn't answer.

Nanamo smiled softly and sat on her wife's lap. "It's okay to be mad, love. G'raha was extremely out of line with that remark." She said, leaning in to kiss Naruko gently.

They stayed like that for several minutes. Simply basking in each other's presence in the warm sun.

"Room for one more, my loves?"

Lifting her head, Nanamo saw Krile approaching with a drink in hand. "Of course, dear," Nanamo smiled as Krile sat on Naruko's lap next to her.

"I'm surprised Tataru isn't with you." Naruko said, kissing the brown-haired Lalafell gently.

"Mmhm.. oh, she's over there sunning herself." Krile said, pointing to Tataru, who was on a towel several fulms to their left and was completely nude and glistening due to her having lathered herself in tanning oil.

Nanamo shook her head, "That girl's gonna burn like bacon." She said with a small amount of mirth, knowing full well that her cousin burns just as easily if not more so than she did...

Yet again, she blamed their Mhachi ancestry.

"I tried to warn her.. but you know how our dear wife is." Krile shrugged. "Though I'll admit, she'll look downright sexy with a tan."

Oh yeah, that's another thing that happened.

Naruko had finally gotten around to marrying Krile and Tataru.

Of course, Tataru was slightly upset that she didn't get to have her dream duo wedding with Nanamo. But seeing as Naruko and Nanamo got married during their time in Norvrandt, plans changed.

Man, the looks on everyone's face when they found that last bit out though. Raubahn was particularly distraught over him not being able to walk either down the aisle, so they ended up holding a small 'official' wedding shortly after the Scions returned from the First..

Though given that it was the Sultana.. yeah, it wasn't small for long. Three weeks of celebrations followed after one of the ladies in waiting told her friend, who told her friend, who told her co-workers, who told Momodi.. you get it.

Anyway, Naruko and Nanamo's ridiculously huge 'official' wedding isn't what we were talking about. That gets it's own chapter at some point.

"Say Krile.." Nanamo sat up suddenly.

"Hmm?" Her fellow Lalafell hazily responded, having almost fallen asleep on Naruko's chest.

"Just out of curiosity... where did your Grandfather find you? Because I remember you saying it wasn't in Sharlayan."

Krile scratched her ear, causing her clover earring to jostle around. "Dunno," she yawned. "I don't really remember much of my early childhood before my grandfather found me... Hell, I don't even remember my original name."

Naruko let out a hum. "Well, we know you're not from Eorzea… maybe one of the Imperial Provinces?"

Krile shook her head negatively "Nope. Grandfather hadn't returned to any of the provinces until after he took me in."

The three of them sat in the midday sun for a few minutes, tossing out various possible ideas. That was until Naruko got a peculiar look in her eye.

"Say... how old were you when Galuf adopted you?" Naruko asked.

Krile rubbed her chin. "I believe I was six... no, seven. Yes, I was seven." She said, before her eyes shot open wide. "Wait... you don't think..."

"Well, the official records did say he journeyed there around seventeen years ago…" Naruko added.

Nanamo looked at the two of them confused, "I feel like I'm missing something?" Only to be ignored.

"Naruko, don't be ridiculous. If I were… grandfather would have told me…" Krile said, sliding off Naruko.

"Unless... the reason for your adoption is... well... y'know..."

"Are you saying he kidnapped me!? Oh gods, did he!?" Krile shouted, pacing in the sand.

Naruko palmed her face. "No, you dolt," she groaned, sitting up. "He likely found you abandoned or along those lines and then brought you to one of the Orphanages he financed before formally adopting you."

Krile froze before shaking her head "No.. no no no. That's impossible." Looking at her wife, Krile let out a shuddering breath "I can't be from Tural.. can I?"

Naruko let out a breath. "Welp, only one way to find out, love.." Leaning back on the sunchair, Naruko let out another sigh. "Looks like the four of us are going to Tural after all." She finished with a tired smile.

Krile grasped Naruko's hand. "But dear… I thought you-" Naruko pulled Krile into a hug, followed by Nanamo joining in.

"I'm not going for the Dawnthrone bullshit. I'm going for you." She said, kissing her wife gently.

"Uuhh... loves." Naruko and Krile broke their kiss and looked at Nanamo, who was staring at something. "I think Tataru has gone from rare to well done." The pink-haired woman said, pointing to her red-skinned cousin.

"She's only been lying there for ten minutes?" Krile said wide-eyed,

"Hey, I said she burns easier than me. And she covered herself in that tanning oil stuff."

And there you go.

If you couldn't guess, my theory is that Galuf found Krile in the Golden City or at least, the ruins outside of it and adopted her. Another thing is that it's a bit weird that he adopted her and then gave her a new name. Though interestingly enough, in the Japanese version Krile is called Kururu like her V counterpart. And that's a very Lalafell sounding name. So in this, her original name was Kururu Kuru.. it that she knows that… yet.

And as for why Naruko is mad with G'raha… well.. let me just get something off my chest.

I. Don't. Like. G'raha.

I don't hate him.. I just think he's bland and annoying. Look, I get why he's liked.. but holy shit he's a fucking simp guys. Come on. But honestly, the reason why I dislike him now is that fucking line in the final quest of EW. Fuck him for using Hydaelyn/Venat's Hear. Feel. Think, line to get WoL to help Wuk. That's a disgusting use of emotional blackmail and you can bet your fucking ass Naruko decked the cunt for it in this.

And as for the situation with Wuk. No, Naruko will not be directly helping her AT. ALL. Why? Well simple. Yes, Zoraal Ja is a definite threat and yes, Naruko will deal with him… But what kind of arrogant fuck comes to a foreign land to meet with their Champion and immediately tried to get them to help her secure the throne while admitting she is the worst option because she is unreliable and has zero political clout? Like holy fuck who thinks that's a good idea.. oh yeah, Wuk Lemat does. So no. Naruko immediately told her no. Because she does not want to get involved in more political bullshit and she definitely doesn't want to help an incompetent dingus become the leader of a country… She's already done that once.

And don't even get me started on the VA. No, I don't care if Sena Bryer is trans. But holy shit Wuk sounds so fucking horrible. From that forced as fuck 'accent' to the bad attempt at mimic the Japanese VA's Genki Girl style execution of her lines. It all sounds so goddamn forced.
