[ The voice application was useful on the communicator, especially since Sophie didn't know how to read or write complicated words. She went for the video option, thinking it might be helpful for everyone to see her. With Shinra's help, she managed to figure out what most of the functions are designed to do.

The feed displays a young girl with long purple pigtails, peering worriedly into the screen. Of course, she's feeling a little troubled... especially when she thought she didn't have to worry about being left all alone so soon... ]

Oh. It's working, I think. Asbel? Do you see this? Your scent, voice, the sound of your footsteps... I can't sense how far or how close you and the others are anymore. Please, tell me you're here.

[ Practically all of her functions she was originally built with no longer work. There's a brief pause, like Sophie is expecting someone to say something. Then she continues to speak. ]

Back where I came from, there's also something very important that I need to do... but I know I can't go back right now. There's a war in this world. Does that mean... a lot of people are going to be killed?

I'll do my best to protect everyone.

... I know how you feel. There is something back home that I must do as well. But... even though there may be casualties we have to try out best to help aid this world. Maybe we could even find a way to end this world without too many loses.

Ah... I haven't heard about anyone named Asbel here. But I'll keep a look out?

[Audio]

[blossomgale]

How long has this war been going on?

Let me know if you do see him, please. He has brown hair and wears a lot of white. [ So descriptive... ]

[Audio]

[willnotdespair]

I'm.. not sure. It doesn't seem to have been going on for too long. [ Compared to the war back home that is ] But no matter how short or long a war is if there is a chance we can stop it we must take that chance.

[ Brown Hair and a lot of White? If it was auburn hair she might as well ask for Kratos ] All right. I'll tell you if I find someone with that description who knows you.

[brutalityfetish]

From what I gather, there will be a lot of killing.

[And he can't really hide his excitement over that either.]

[video]

[blossomgale]

[ She's peering into the screen, trying to observe the other's expression. Excitement over killing?! That confuses her. ]

It doesn't make you unhappy?

[Video]

[halfcow]

Means people were already killed.

[Video]

[blossomgale]

And there will be more casualties? There's no sign of the war ending soon?

[voice]

[flamberge]

[Another seemingly young girl brought here. Really, BREW, you've outdone yourself with the amount of children brought here this time.]

People getting killed in a war is virtually unavoidable. [Very blunt, but sugarcoating never does any good.] However, the sooner an end is brought about to this war, the less amount of causalities there will be as a result.

As for your companion, if you could provide a description of him, I'll keep an eye open for anyone matching it.

[voice]

[blossomgale]

... [ Sophie is quiet a moment, obviously in some discomfort. Her new purpose is to fight again? She answers, still sounding reluctant. ] I'll do what I can to help. If I fight, will the war end soon?

Asbel Lhant. He has brown hair, wears a lot of white, and he's taller than me.

[video]

[dragneel]

Y'could pick up your friends' scents too??

[video]

[blossomgale]

Yes. Not just my friends, but other people and monsters. I can't... do that here anymore.

[video]

[moralizes]

With war, there are always countless lives lost. There have already been a tremendous amount of deaths, and the future will only bring more.

However, do not worry about your duties at home, you will return to the same time you left, eventually.

[video]

[blossomgale]

If we end the war as soon as possible, there won't be any more. [ Staring into the feed like she's asking, "right, right?" ] I want it to end soon...

The same time? That means... I'll see my friends again when I return? They were with me, last I remember.

[voice]

[wildest]

It gets pretty bad here, I mean... what happens to people. I guess you learn what tough times are here if you've never had 'em before. [His avoidant way of saying, "Yes, people are killed here."]

You still willing to put all that effort in protecting everyone? Even if others are gonna tell you that it won't do much good?

[voice]

[blossomgale]

...ngh. [ She just makes a sound of frustration at that. Everyone's pretty much telling her the same thing. ]

I have to try. What else can I do? Doing nothing isn't going to help make things better.

[Video]

[proudambassador]

All of us, my dear girl? Would you protect even me?

[Video]

[blossomgale]

[ She tilts her head slightly. ] Who are you?

[karmafree]

You can track this Asbel by scent? That's pretty impressive.

video;

[blossomgale]

Oh, thank you. But I can't do that here anymore...

video

[socializes]

You can sense that much about someone?

video

[blossomgale]

I used to, but I can't anymore. Not here.

[ video ]

[nolicenseyet]

Is Asbel your friend?

[ video ]

[blossomgale]

He's... family.

[clowned]

It's okay to concentrate on the things happening here, as long as you don't forget the important things we have to do back home.

[blossomgale]

I won't ever forget. I have a family waiting for me back home.
