Despite that, things have yet to reach the kind of head they reached five years prior. What have we accomplished that the originals have not already on a much grander scale? The fact remains that the Originals were there at Carteneau. We were not. You have seen Bahamut. I have not. We may be in the club, but we are the greenhorns.

We are those who came after, but the eyes will ever be on those who walked before.
