*Goes to laugh again, then stops and slowly frowns slightly*
Oh, Claire. The first thing you should know is that you don’t need to know anything to be yourself... I really resent the brainwashing and conditioning you must have gone through.

@Valiance

Not anything at all?

Nope. Being yourself just comes naturally.
*Motions for you to come along*
We can talk more on the go.

What do you think of it all?

There's so much new.

I’d wager to say they kept you either in a sleeping quarters or in a factory of sorts all day. A girl like you needs to live a little. That’s what we’re about, here. We oppose the Five Flags and each of their oppressive regimes.

@Valiance

Who are the flags?

Who are the flags?

@Legend Begins

The five nations of the world. One of which you lived under probably since you were born, and never learned a thing about. You lived in the nation of Riphasia, and I’d say it’s the roughest of the bunch.

Well, you’ll get proper schooling here. You might have to work a bit harder than most to catch up, since you’re already nine years old and haven’t had a day’s worth of school like a normal child would. But it’s important, education.

@Valiance

What is school?

@Legend Begins

*Blinks and doesn’t say anything for a moment before answering*
School is a designated place you go to learn things. History, math, science. Do you know how to read?

@Valiance

A little... mom taught me some.

@Legend Begins

That’s good. It’s a good foundation for going to school. In fact, between that and the fact they had someone as young as you working on machinery, you’re probably just a little genius, huh?
*Looks at you behind me as we walk and smiles*

The man who wants to meet you took interest in it, you know.

Who?

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

@Legend Begins

It’ll be best if he introduced himself to you when we get there. He... Likes to put on a show like that.
*Walks into a post office building and drops the envelope I grabbed earlier into a box, then walks over to the counter and checks a list of names*

@Legend Begins

Hmm... Nothing for me this time. Oh well, that makes this trip easy. Let’s go.
*Leads you back outside into the crowd of people walking up and down the street*
Seen anything that’s caught your eye so far?
