Garnet felt her heart sink when she saw Minerva. She felt her hands fold over one another as she somewhat moved to the side, helping patch a few holes up with some of the ship's faculty. They at the very least understood her expression made things complicated for her, but they were going easy on her since she wasn't required to really do anything. "I wish to see Uncle Cid. So I sent for him. And they came to get me..." Garnet said simply, yet with heavy breath. Upon the boards being nailed into place, she turned to the Knight before her. "I hate not telling those I otherwise trust... But I don't trust Kuja around Mother, she may be loving, but her eyes dwindle elsewhere rather than around her kingdom. I've seen... The most extraordinary shadows... But... My fear is not what mother may do, but what Kuja could be trying to do." Garnet stood firmly before approaching her. "Three Lumyians in one day Minerva. The rarest of races in Society next to Kumioh, And Sudasians. I'm not omnipotent... But these are not the kinds of people who come out of the shadows without cause... Like an Animal leaving it's habitat... Humans are no different... But united they stand strong. Tell me... Minerva, if they were divided, how would we be here on this ship?" Garnet posed the question. "Our own Knights were divided, that is why I am here." Garnet was clearly alluding to the creeping shadows of Alexandria. "I wish to bring a light back to Alexandria, but I can't do it alone... I'm sorry I did not tell you sooner, or even at all." She looked from Minerva's eyes, to her own feet, shamed she could not just hold a torch with one of her own people.
