General Frings was already down to his last breath. With his remaining strength, he told us about the attack. The attackers had carried the flag of Kimlasca's army, and used fontech bombs to carry out suicide attacks. But he said that they hadn't looked like the real Kimlascan army. I'm sure it wasn't. I know Gwen wouldn't allow that to happen.
General Frings said that the mysterious soldiers all had eyes that looked like they were dead. ...And those were his last words. We departed to inform Emperor Tyler of the incident.
Farewell, General Frings.
We told Emperor Tyler about General Frings, and he asked me to quietly check the Kimlascan court to confirm the situation. Well, I'll go if he asks me to...but I don't really want to go to the castle. I'm scared to meet Uncle--the King...
Christian reported that the God-Generals are alive, and that we saw Jeremy. Apparently Emperor Tyler is looking for the Key of Sol Jeremy has, because it might be able to calm the Planet Storm down again.
Then I mentioned what Sol had told me when we lowered the Outer Lands, and everybody was startled. It looks like I was the only one that didn't know what it meant. From what everybody said, it sounds like Master Kyo is alive, and has trapped Sol somewhere--and that Sol should have sent a key to me as well as Jeremy.
But I haven't received any sort of Key. I don't know what's going on...
Emrls then suggested that we start with what we can easily confirm--that the army that attacked the Malkuth soldiers really wasn't Kimlasca's.
Saiyukiness said she wanted to write a letter to Sion to tell him what was happening, so we headed to the entrance to Grand Chokmah to wait for her.
Saiyukiness sent off her letter and rejoined us. Kitten seems worried about Master Kyo possibly being alive. I can understand that... I'm sure she'd be happy to see him alive, but if he's still thinking the same way, we'll probably end up fighting again.
But that would also be a good chance to ask Master Kyo what he's really trying to accomplish. And besides, like Emrls said, right now we need to take care of what we can. Let's head for Baticul and see what we can find out.
At the entrance to the castle in Baticul, we ran into Gwen, who had just returned from inspections. It seems she's heard of the attack on the Malkuth troops as well. She was infuriated at the rumors that Kimlasca was at fault. Not only that, it sounded like Kimlasca has been attacked by the mysterious army, too. At any rate, the King should know more.
His Majesty confirmed that he Kimlascan army wasn't attacking Malkuth. So who are those mysterious soldiers...? Emrls brought up General Frings' comment on their eyes, and suggested that the God-Generals might be creating an army of replicas. Since it looks like they're trying to increase tension between Kimlasca and Malkuth, that would match up with the report that Camire had taken Lahari back.
Then Gwen asked the King for permission to travel to Daath and arrange a summit to discuss how the Score should be handled, to try and prevent any more foolish actions in its name. She sure knows what she's talking about--I guess that just goes to show that she's royalty and I'm a mere replica...
If the Score is going to be discussed, Ion will obviously need to be involved as well. We started out for Daath to ask his opinion.
