Tales under the New Moon #5: Whispers from the Dark

[SannaR]

Oh man what a treat out of the blue like this. I know this story was about Gaius and Lahabrea, but no wonder Emet-Selch sort of seethed at the other two unsundered.

As sure they both were loyal to the rejoinings, freeing Zodiark and restoring of how the world was prior to the final days. Yet Emet looks to be the only one that felt that keeping the memories of those they cared for wasn't only important but a necessary thing to do. I wonder if part of the reason why those memories were messing with Lahabreha were due to having a part of Athena in the Heart of Sabik? Was her influence the sole cause for him remembering even if foggy his family? Or did it just make those memories stronger and last longer?

It's interesting that the story claims that his creative juices petered out to the point where he really was sure, that'll do when he woke up the dragon we fought in Dusk Vigil while Cid and Alphinaud worked on the Enterprise. I do wonder if he still had mental flashes of Athena, Erichtonios or remembeed that Igeyorhm and he were cousins after turning the heart over to Giaus.

It is nice to know those two's relationship was always like that. I'm glad that they told us we would be getting more of these over the course of December.
