This way was quicker!
-He takes a couple step forward, cups his hands over his mouth, looks upward and inhaaaaales-
......OOOOOI! YOU GUYS! GET OVER HEEEERE!!!
-Silence...-
-And then, a gruff, sailor looking man enters the clearing, tripping over-
Agh-...Here, Cap!
-Then another enters-
Why do you have to be so loud?....
-Then another-
Aw, come on, I thought I'd be the first here!...
-And another-
Hup, two! Hup, two!
-Pirates pour in, one by one. Among them are Rayleigh and Gaban-
Ah-...Found her, did you?
Ohp- Sorry, Rayleigh, I keep bumping into you!
I'm not Rayleigh!

Look, I... appreciate that you want to help us figure this out. But I can't... We can't go off of theories or speculation at this point, not when we can't be certain that your memories haven't been tampered with, and not when our enemies are trying so hard to smoke us out...
make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019-Oh hey, Fen, it's Cloud on the roof-
Hey. I'm sorry you got hurt in our scuffle back there.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

Yeah, things were... not so good in Japan last I was there, to put it lightly. Didn't always used to be like that, though. Things didn't start getting too bad until magic came into the world. From what I know of our world's history, mages just started popping up one day, doing these incredible arcane feats. But the source of all this magic came from something corrupt, something evil. Those with magic became much more vicious and unstable, and eventually it got so bad that wars started erupting around the world.
From what I understand, this... corruption is starting to be reversed now, but a lot of damage has already been done.
Then... if you truly feel a duty to your world, I believe you should assume that role.
If you wish to, of course.
