To: All Heroes of Light (Backdated to Post-Event)
To Everyone:
My name is Aya Brea. I don't know many of you, and I don't expect many of you to know me. I can't imagine that I've made that great of an impression on some of those of you who do, but I should say this.
That person that many of you saw me as was not me. I am not the commander of an army - I don't even consider myself to be that much of a leader. Back home I was a special agent of the FBI just trying to survive, and here I suppose I'm finding myself trying to do the same thing. I have family and friends back home that I care about deeply, and would do anything to try and protect them. This is all I want. I'm sure some of you may feel the same way about the lives they've left behind.
It is easy for people to trust their friends after what happened, but I understand that not many of you know me well enough to say that I can expect the same. After all, I just got here. On one hand it's only been a few weeks since I arrived, and on the other it sometimes feels that I've lived those two years, but again, that is not me. That is not who I will choose to become.
Whether you believe me or not is up to you.
Regards,

By your confession, may I assume that you were involved in the invasion and attack on Mysidia? I will not hold you to blame or accountability to crimes carried out within a dream. I'd prefer to see that as a warning of what could come and I do not know the circumstances that lead to make the choices that you did.
I would like to consider you an ally, but I press upon you the importance of what we witnessed. For whatever reason, you came to the conclusion that attacking a civilian populous with a fleet of airships was the "right" thing to do.
Trying to survive is an admirable drive, but be careful of what you sacrifice to do so. It doesn't mean that we have to stop being human.
Here and now, we must be sure to not let that future come to pass.
Yours,
James Kidd

You would assume correctly. I was. I'm still a little fuzzy on some of the details, but that part I remember clearly enough that I know what I was doing and why, I just can't bring myself to understand.
Trust me, nothing is more important to me than being human. No matter what happens, I won't let anything, fear or otherwise, change who I am. Just know that I am not someone who would lead an entire army over a city. That goes against everything that I believe in.
Thank you for your understanding.

That is good to hear and I am glad my assessment of you is in the right so far. Should you in the future come to a choice similar to this, I pray you seek the counsel of the rest of us and better weigh your options.
As I said, I do not know what lead you to make your choices in the vision and I trust you had your reasons, but given our roles that this world has chosen for us we must needs be certain of our convictions.
But in the interests of a clean slate and a clear future ahead, next week meet the first pint is on me.
Yours,
James Kidd

Global domination - or domination of any kind - really isn't my style. I'll be happy if I can just live a somewhat simple life for a change, and that was a far cry from the kind of lifestyle I want.
I'm more than certain.
I just might have to take you up on that offer. Though I'll probably have something other than a pint.
no subject
Hah! All the better then! We'll have to see if you can keep up with a pirate!
Yours,

Well what I mean is that I don't drink - but I'll be more than happy to be a pirate's DD.
no subject
And what is a "DD"?

Designated driver. Someone who stays sober and makes sure you don't end up in a random gutter somewhere.
no subject
Ah I see. Not a title I've heard before but a concept I'm familiar with. I've known a few men in my time who could have used one themselves. In any case, I appreciate the offer.
Yours,

I imagine it's probably not a term that's often used that much among pirates. I've found myself having to be that person all too often, so I don't mind. I don't mind bars themselves that much, either. Some of them actually have really good food.
no subject
Aye they can. Even some of the ones that look the least like they'd have a good kitchen can still keep the sailors well fed. Those tend to be good ones to learn a thing or two about what's going on in this world.
In any case, I wish you well, and let me know when you'd like to take me up on my offer.
Yours,
James Kidd
