Esper Eidolon Origins-A Realm Reborn-Chapter 38

Public
I approached with caution just past Vesper Bay at the Flames outpost. Looking upon Minfilia, a man with white hair and a young Elezen. The man with white hair was dressed familier to me. I felt a tear fall from my eye as I began to recognize him. Just then Castrum Marinum let lose a red beam as it fell.
Everyone cheered for whom they claimed the warrior of light. I smiled as they began to talk plans with the person and finally turned around to see me.

"Hello Cid."

The man turned his full attention towards me. His mouth dropped in complete disbelief, seemingly seeing that of a ghost. Minfilias mouth opened in awe as well as tears fell from here eyes.

"Eidolon you are alive!"

I smiled towards her nodding as my gaze turned again towards Cid.

"Eidolon..."

Slowly he approached me and placed his arms around me. Placing his hand upon my hair he pet it and I smiled.

"Still remember me I see."

"Gods it's been ages! How did you get here?! Never mind that now no, how have you been!? Tis so good to see you!!"

He began to hug me tightly as everyone seemed in shock by his actions. I turned towards them and smiled.

"Cid took care of me while I was a child. His family watched over me up until Midas disappeared. Cid however left in a hurry in an attempt to stop his father. He told me he was going to have to leave me their. I agreed, back then I would have been nothing more then a hindrance. Things have changed now however, I fight for myself as I was raised to."

Smiling as he loosened his grip around me, he placed his hands upon my shoulders and kept his eyes upon mine own.

"You've grown so much."

I snickered as I brought my hand to his beard and tugged gently.

"What is this? Mr. Scruffy?"

"Ah, well, I kind of like it! What do you think?"

"I think you need a trim, but then again, all brilliant men have their distinct looks yes?"

He smiled as the young elezen approached us.

"Might I inquire whom you are?"

Looking upon him as Cid relaxed his arms I composed myself and nodded to the young one.

"She is Eidolon, a member of the Scions of the Seventh dawn just like me."

Turning around to the voice I smiled at Desdemona standing next to Fenris.

"Hello kiddo, been a long time hasn't it?"

"Desdemona!? I thought you on the isle of Beldesia continuing your studies."

Snickering, she walked up and hugged him.

"I have not been on the ilse for quite a few years. I was here by your grandfathers side until he ordered me away in his final moments."

"I'm sure he appreciated your assistance."

"Not as much as I did his."

"I am glad you are alright Eidolon, who is this man with you?"

Turning towards Fenris, I noticed him seemingly uncomfortable as he kept his perfect form in his armor.

"This is-"

"Fenris, Antecedent, dragoon of Ishgard, I am here to see a friend, Rave."

"The Warrior of Light?"

My eyebrow arose curious with her choice of words.

"He is a Warrior of Light now?"

"We have deemed him so, think of it Eidolon. So many people disappeared years ago. To date, the efforts he has put towards bettering the realm has forever shaped us for the better. He is spear heading Operation Archon, he will return momentarily."

Gazing upon Cid I nod to him as he lets me go.

"I have my own plan for now, Cid I will require your aid first."

"What is your plan?"

"I'm going into the Praetorium, I want answers only the wolf can give."

"How do you plan on getting in? Their airships are protecting it."

"I will go it alone."

Cid looked upon with worry as he shook his head.

"That's suicide! If the Black Wolf-"

"What ever may happen will happen."

"I'll go with Red."

Turning to Desdemona I shook my head denying her request.

"Their will only be room for one. That is why I need Cids help."

"You want to activate one of the pods at Castrum Marinum."

"Yes."

Cid nodded in agreement as he began to walk off.

"Red, be careful. If that Weapon gets anywhere close to you, or he activates your collar..."

"I know Des."

I approached her, and hugged her gently.

"I promise I will be careful."

"How about coming back?"

"I suppose we will see."

"Bloody tease."

Letting go she snickered at me as I turned around and joined Cid. We walked off into the cave heading up to the Imperial Outpost of Cape Westwind. Cid began to chat seemingly happy as I to be in each others company again.

"Seems our paths take us on so many different roads."

"Strange how they always seem to intertwine yes?"

"Strange, or perhaps a blessing, you have no idea what it does for me to see you alive and well. I had heard so many things, I was not sure what to believe."

"I know, their is probably some sort of truth to it all as well."

As we kept walking, we noticed a miqo'te male approaching us as he road upon his chocobo. He stopped for a moment and smiled.

"Cid, where are you off to?"

"Rave! I will be back with the party in a few moments. Miss Eidolon here will be taking part in her own mission."

I smiled as I looked upon the deemed Warrior of Light. He looked upon me with curiosity as his ears twitched.

"You look familiar, I'm sorry I'm trying to place your face but-"

"Tis fine, off you go Warrior of Light, time to save the realm."

He smiled and bowed towards me, riding off past us I kept my smile as Cid looked over at me grinning.

"Big fan?"

"Shut up."

As we approached the Imperial Outpost, we were greeted by several Flame soldiers whom had taken over the area. Explaining my plan quickly they nodded in agreement to assist. Walking further up I noticed many dead and dying imperial soldiers. Sighing to myself I looked over at the ones unharmed. I approached one young woman about my height in irons.
She laid on the ground keeping her head down trying not to make eye contact. I placed my hand under her chin and made her look upon me.

"Do you know who I am?"

"Ye-Yes..."

"Good, I want all your clothing. Every single thing you are wearing. Cooperate and I personally will assure you amnesty in the realm. You will be given a home, some money to start a new life. Always watched to make sure you do not continue as a Garlean soldier.
However tis better then being put to the blade yes?"

She seemed rather relieved to hear me request such. Pushing herself up to her feet she bowed to me.

"I swear to you my lady I would not have been part of the Garlean infantry if I had a choice. They took me mum and dad and executed them before me eyes along with others. Told us to obey or die like the rest. I swears!"

"I know, it is okay, you will have to live with what you have done the rest of your life. You will however have freedom and a life to live."

She smiled and tears fell from her eyes as she removed her helmet and handed it to me. As I dressed in her clothing, the Flames handed her some clothes to dress in and disappeared with her after I signed request papers to Raubahn. To my distaste, the clothing fit rather well. Walking up towards the Castrum Marinum I looked upon Cid working on a single pod ship. Next to the ring was the unmoving body of Rhitahtyn Sas Arvina.
Kneeling down to him I began searching his wears for the key. As I touched his chest I stood up and walked backwards as I realized he was still alive. He gasped aloud very weak as he kept his arms firmly to the ground. Moving his head back and forth, he seemed lost.

"Please.... my helmet.."

Biting my lower lip I kneeled back down and unclipped his helmet, revealing a Roegaden male, bloodied and dying.

"I know you.... heh.... I know you Lady of Light..."

He smiled as he looked up towards me. Trying to move he struggled and gave up.

"Damned... weapons... to ....heavy..."

I placed my hand upon his chest feeling his heart begin to slow down.

"I was their when they publicly incriminated you... I was their the night you were slain..... I.... Wish.... things could have been different..."

Keeping my mouth shut, I was not sure what to say to him. I knew not why he spoke to me as such. Perhaps he saw me as someone else, but he seemed content.

"I have done deplorable things... My own ancestors would call me a monster. What I did here, was to better this land.... Forever shall I be known as a monster. However, in the end, I made this place better... All the people baring arms together against us... United, strong.... unwavering.... Eorzea is my home..... and it always shall..... be...."

With his last word he sighed as his body relaxed and fell over. I felt a tear falling from my eye at those words. How much the Garleans have done to others. Their lives forever altered from whom they could have been. Reaching down to one of his weapons I found the key I was looking for.
Grasping it I stood up and turned my attention to Cid whom had finished his recalibrations.

"Still know how to fly one of these things?"

"It has only been a few years"

"I still remember when I allowed you to try it the first time. You were white as a ghost!"

Smiling upon him I quickly took a seat in the hover craft.

"I will see what I can do to bring it back for you to dissect and have some fun with."

"Just be careful Eidolon, I've a bad feeling about this. Gaius is cornered, no dog cornered remains without his fighting spirit."

My smile kept upon him as I motioned the hover craft away from the platform. Backing up he covered his head looking up at me.

"See you soon Cid!"

"That better be a bloody promise!"

"Consider it a fact."

The crafts top closed over me as I punched down on the pedal and sored through the skies heading as fast as it would take me to the Praetorium, and the answers I seek.
