Letters to all Heroes and Civilians
To My Friends and Allies,
This is just a reminder that the training school is always open to those who wish to take combat lessons and train against others. You can be a beginner or a veteran, as classes are designed for people with multiple experience levels. The class I teach deals specifically with swordsmanship, but I've done my best to hire instructors well-versed in multiple weapons and abilities.
That being said, with the continued encroachment of the Calamity, I may be required to assist other cities with evacuation, as well as offering my services as they are needed to the people of this world. Should you have need of me, you have but to ask. I will not be charging any kind of fee for my help, so do not fear if you believe money is an issue.
Monday I would like to venture out and obtain a chocobo. The last attempt did not yield any fruitful results, I'm afraid, but now that I'm attempting to master the job of a Chocobo Knight, it's not a task I can put off any longer. If you wish to accompany me and seek a chocobo of your own, I would welcome your presence.
May the light you hold continue to shine for the rest of our days. Godspeed.
Signed,
Chrom

Dear Heroes,
We have received a reply from the Tarutarus of Trano Golsaucia. They are asking for our help to save their region from the Calamity, and I can see no reason why we should not give it to them. As far as I have been made aware, their city is in the most danger at the moment, and it has been estimated that they have perhaps a month left.
Should any of you still hold a Sapphire Crystal in your possession, I humbly ask that it be used for this purpose. I should also mention that they did offer a monetary reward, but I don't know if it would be right to accept as it may cause others to believe that we prioritized their salvation for the sake of greed.
Sincerely,
Chrom

Back to business as usual?
You know... I've never been to the Chocobo Farm and I've been here for months. Want some company? Safety in numbers and all!

no subject
Gladly. Perhaps we'll have an opportunity to test your swordsmanship at the same time. I look forward to seeing what you've learned. A chocobo will certainly aid us both in our travels as well, so the venture should be productive if nothing else. Let us meet at the city gates at eight in the morning so we may get an early start on the day.
Sincerely,
Chrom
no subject
Well... I didn't bring a sword to a fight where it would've come in handy but I got some practice in when I went portal hopping. I guess the fact that I've mastered Red Mage should come in handy. It'll let me work out how this Dualcast ability works.
Also... Onion Knight?
~ Selphie
no subject
I was not aware you had not chosen a blade of your own just yet. If you wish, I would be happy to lend you one of mine. I've taken care to purchase a blade with an affinity for each type of element to be used against a variety of foes. However, as Falchion remains my primary weapon, I see nothing wrong with sharing what arms I've gathered.
Are you mastering the Warrior job as well? It's supposed to combine well with Red Mage for a powerful advanced job.
Ahh, I see you've unlocked the Onion Knight job with your first job mastery. Yes, Onion Knight automatically assigns itself to our crystals. It appears to be linked to legends of the past, but we know little about the job in and of itself.
Sincerely,
Chrom
no subject
It's not that! I made a request of Cid to get my usual weapon back and I took that to the battle with me. It wasn't the best idea but... I did what I could. I have the one that I purchased with my savings from my job.
I started to learn how to use one and I plan to see it through to the end. I'm not a quitter. Maybe I should ask for Warrior next then.
Yeah... my moogle told me when I woke up after everything that happened. Is there more info on this job in the library? I'm curious now.
~ Selphie
no subject
There should be. I understand that the history of the job is somewhat clouded, and varies from region to region. But the progression of the job should be rather standard, as well as how to best make use of it. I still have a long way to go, it seems. You may complete the Onion Knight job far sooner than I. I wish you luck with Cid, his quests are rather unpredictable.

Chrom

I'll have to look it up some time then if there's time. Maybe some of the other heroes would know about it too. Hrmmmm... eh, what's the worst he can do? I've helped run messages before when Mognet went on strike in the past but...
Seriously, what's the worst he can do?
~ Selphie
no subject
I can't say, given that I've only run a few errands myself. But I've been assigned janitor duty at the labs twice now.
~Chrom
no subject
Well... that can't be so bad can it? Unless there's trash goblins...
Nasty lot those trash goblins.
~ Selphie
no subject
Selphie,
I'll be wary, never you fear.
~Chrom
no subject
I agree. We should save Trano Golsaucia.
-Chiaki
[This reply came back very quickly.]
no subject
Dear Chiaki,
Thank you for your support. I assume you must have your own reasons for wishing to protect this city, but I would not wish to pry. Keep your eyes open for any opportunities, as I do not know who possesses a sapphire crystal or where we might obtain one.
Sincerely,
Chrom
no subject
I do. I have family there.
-Chiaki
[She doesn't mind sharing.]
no subject
I see. In that case I understand completely. As of yet I have heard nothing from any other heroes in possession of a sapphire crystal. We may need to seek one out for ourselves. With as much wealth changing hands in Trano Golsaucia, perhaps we might take a look around the area and see if anyone's run across anything we can use.
Sincerely,
Chrom
no subject
Good idea. I'll see if I can find anything out.
-Chiaki
no subject
I'll do the same. If you're planning on taking a trip to Trano Golsaucia, alert me and I shall travel with you. I'd like to meet with the officials of the city in person.
~Chrom
no subject
I was thinking of taking a trip out there to convince Chihiro's doppelganger to come to Aqures Ixen. We can go together.
-Chiaki
no subject
That sounds like a plan. Let me know what day works best for you, and I shall be ready.
Signed,
Chrom
[OOC: DO you want to do a log, or handwave it?]
no subject
The sooner the better. I don't want to take any chances.
-Chiaki
(OOC: Let's just handwave, I've got a lot going on right now. We'll assume they do this early in the month.)
no subject
Sure. I would love to help pick up Chocobos. I think I should get one too. Back home, I have a sky bison, but I think it would be safer to leave Appa where he is. My friends can take care of him until I get back
We also should make sure they're well stocked with food. I know some of us can cross Crystalized terrain, but not enough for a whole city.
-- Aang
no subject
You are more than welcome to join us, in that case. I confess that I am unfamiliar with sky bisons. Are they perhaps similar to a pegasus?
I'm also surprised to know that there are those among us who can traverse the Calamity with no ill effects. Are you one such person who can?
Sincerely,
Chrom
no subject
Yeah. At least we could last year.
-- Aang
no subject
Any assistance you need in saving Trano Golsaucia, I'll be there. If we need another evacuation effort, at least we know you and I make a good team, eh? We shouldn't run into nearly as much trouble as Nabila, though.
-Jack
no subject
I'm pleased to hear that you're prepared for another such venture. However, I fear we may have a more difficult task at hand, if the people of Trano Golsaucia are more hard-pressed about leaving their possessions behind. If we're unable to preserve the city, I would not wish for them to overstay too long simply because they're waiting for us to save the day.
Nonetheless, whatever the challenge might be, I'm confident that we may overcome such things.
Signed,
Chrom

Chrom,
Have you already managed to complete your team, or would your school perhaps benefit from another instructor? Someone magic-oriented, to be more exact.
-- Ace
no subject
My team for seeking chocobos? We're always welcoming anyone who might be interested. An instructor with a gift for magic would be highly valued at the school, should you wish to lend us your aid. Not only would it benefit those who wish to train in the use of magic, but those who wish to defend against it as well. I myself would appreciate instruction in the art of avoiding fire-based attacks.
~Chrom
no subject
I was actually referring to your team of teachers, but I do wish you luck on your trip - if it wasn't for certain obligations, I would gladly tag along. Chocobos are very intelligent creatures and require proper care, which is something to be taken into consideration regardless of your goal.
[ This isn't at all meant to sound condescending - but not enough people rise up to the responsibility! ]
That said, I would be interested in joining your ranks, as I feel we should take a more active stance, as Heroes. We can expect new arrivals happening in less than two days, and very often, the newcomers find themselves overwhelmed by the powers in their grasp. This would be the most direct way of helping them diminish that fear, wouldn't it?
I could drop by whenever you have some time, so that we could discuss everything in more detail.
--Ace
[ And an extra note, below. ]
Due to the origins of our Crystal, the power of fire was favoured heavily where I'm from, and thus, it might be the easiest one to focus on. I wouldn't mind providing assistance with that, especially since I would benefit from some extra swordsmanship classes in return, myself.
Out of curiosity, however, may I ask why have you chosen that element in particular?
no subject
It seems you know a great deal about chocobos. Have you pursued the Chocobo Knight job? I should be surprised if you have not, but if so, any tips you have regarding the job would be gratefully received. I have no wish to neglect my mount, particularly out of ignorance.
I was not aware we were receiving anyone new. The countdown has ceased at the lab from what I understand. Nonetheless, given the pattern, it would not surprise me if others did arrive. I shall be watchful.
Your assistance at the school would benefit the students tremendously, as we are always in need of additional instructors. You may visit at any time. As a warning, I do plan on taking a voyage to Trano Golsaucia to assist their efforts there, but I will make time to meet with you as soon as I am able.
As for the matter of fire, how shall I put this plainly? In multiple instances where I found myself facing my own demise, either as a doppelganger or in a dream, it has almost always involved some manner of incineration. Call it paranoia if you must, but I would rather take this as a safety precaution.
Signed,
Chrom
