There I was, searching for PF groups for Levi and Ramuh EX, then I saw a player. They had the Recruit a Friend Chocobo mount that fits two people, after being amazed and jealous at this, they rode around a little up towards the Summoning Bells area.

Then I saw something so amazing it defied comprehension. A Carbuncle, Emerald, sitting on top of this wagon, no ACN attached to it. It was just a Carbuncle, free and adorable as always. It watched me as I examined it atop the cart, then before I thought to take a picture to prove I wasn't insane, it disappeared.

What was this?! I must know! My love for Carbuncle transcends time and space!
