Did... did we fail? Did that being somehow kill us all?

[The video post must accidental, because it shows a naked, pale male chest. It looks like someone is holding his journal against himself in a desperate attempt to ward off the cold.]

I cannot remember him attacking... Perhaps I hit my head? But would the afterlife not heal such wounds? [The sound of rustling hair.] No blood, and no swelling. Perhaps the wound can be healed, but the amnesia cannot? ...I suppose it matters not, in the end.

[His feet barely make any noise on the ground, but his body is obviously moving, even from such a close range.]

I should be thankful I appear to be the only one present at least. Perhaps Ceodore and the others have survived... As long as this crisis is averted, my death is an acceptable price to pay. But still, I’d hoped...

[But whatever he’d hoped, he does not say.]

...I should try to find my sword and shield. This afterlife might not be as pleasant as it appears to be.

Considering what you said last happened to you, you had no reason to know any better. But accusing a man of an act seventeen years before he supposedly committed it is rather unfair, Ceodore. For all you knew, he could have been under duress at the time.

[Not that he was, and Cecil knows it, but still. One has to be fair at all times.]

Y-yes. I'm sorry.

[When all that erupted he hadn't known about the time discrepancies. Still, it's no excuse for unbecoming behavior.]

It's fine. You were brought here during a very stressful moment; overreacting was a possible side effect. Did you apologize to him?

Yes, sir. W-well, I tried.

He kinda hit me for it. I deserved it though.

He hit you for apologizing? [He frowns a little.] That should have been a reason not to hit you, as I doubt you did so without meaning it.

He... doesn't like me. I brought it on myself though. I will find some way to make amends.

[This would be Ceodore taking responsibility for everything going on around him including Kain's tendencies to violence.]

He does not like you? That's strange. He seems quite attached to you, back home. ...But if you are the only one to make amends, it'll never be enough. Both of you need to take part in it.

I owe him more than I repay in a lifetime. He doesn't have to do anything.

Relations are not about who owes what to whom, Ceodore. Besides, you'll repay him with a Raise spell after meeting that perverted octopus.

Perverted octopus?

Perverted octopus. We had to take care of all the healing, because your mother was too angry to use anything other than Holy.

['Scuse Ceodore while he tries to patch his mind after that break. The idea of anything making her angry, much less that angry, is beyond comprehension. She didn't even yell when he shattered her favorite vase attempting to practice sword drills around it.]

M-mother did?

I did say it was perverted.

[Not that he'll share the details. That particular fight was too embarrassing to recall much out loud.]

Rydia's reaction was equally terrifying. I'm rather surprised it did not run away.

...

So am I.

[An angry Rydia is a terrifying Rydia.]

Letting the ladies handle it was best, truly. It did not appreciate being attacked by men.
