"Heroes of Light",

Wouldn't you say it's a commendable effort recruiting this many people in a singular plight to protect the world from Calamity? Not just this world, but by extension our own, too. Who or whatever is behind this is quite impressive, collecting dozens, if not, a hundred heroes. I wasn't aware such power existed to this degree.

This god complex of the responsible party overstepped boundaries, and you're no different if you take ownership of the title granted to you by this facadé. What entitles you to think, if you comply, you'll be returned, or heroic? Or do all heroes believe what they're told? By serving, are you convinced you're doing justice?

Changes don't magically happen, and blood will spill in this civil strife against the painted enemy, but you must have already consented to that if you think yourself to be a hero.

[ The letter has no close. ]

From what I've been told, death seems to matter little to those who were drawn here from different worlds. Those who are killed turn to crystal and are teleported to the Crystal, upon which they reawaken in perfect health a week later. It's a strange phenomenon. Nonetheless, I understand your concern and need for discretion in that case.

It seems as if your world shares some striking similarities with this one. You are correct; the political strife between nations and races is troubling to me as well. I've begun researching the history of politics and warfare, but I am not certain how much impact I can make, if any. Perhaps if more of us work together, we will have a better chance of achieving a peaceful union and solidification of goals and resources.

What of yourself? Have you made any plans as to what you will do here, or are you still gathering information before making a decision?

[ Even more reason to take this less serious. Without the fear of mortality, they could easily grow reckless. ]

Then you're one of a few.

Problems of this magnitude aren't resolved overnight.

[ In other words he was still gauging. ]

[He's kind of starting to feel sorry for this Moogle. Chrom's sure he isn't the only one writing responses. Have some more tea, tiny Moogle.]

I'm certain that I am not completely alone in my efforts. It's just a matter of time, to find the appropriate connections.

And that is not something I will argue. Even so, that is why it is important to lay the groundwork now, and to form plans and alliances to get the work done. Even a small step is still a step forward.

I wish you luck, stranger. You know how to find me if you need assistance.
