...Can I ask what happened?

[sageguidance]

Worry not, 'tis naught too personal.

But... to put it simply, my fellow Scions and I have always needed to contend with those that desire to bring about world-ending catastrophes for their own agendas. Though they have been mostly dealt with, there was, unfortunately, one more individual who attempted the same. We have been dealing with his mess since.

[agleam]

[he makes a face]

Well... At least, I'm guessing by the way you're talking about it that you managed to, you know, avert the whole end of the world part?

[sageguidance]

Not quite, but almost. We only needed just a little further...

[ and then this vacation happened!! ]

[agleam]

[making a face]

Sounds tough. But it also sounds like you at least know what you need to do to stop it, so... I'll be rooting for you!

[sageguidance]

Not entirely, but we have full intention on succeeding nevertheless. So, thank you, Rupert. 'Tis such faith in what we do that keeps us going.

[agleam]

[he nods.]

I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out, whatever it is. If you ever need help with brainstorming, I'm happy to listen.

[sageguidance]

[ It's more complicated than that, Alphinaud thinks, but... ]

And I shall be certain to do so! Ever have you lent an open ear, and for that I deeply appreciate.

[agleam]

Ha, well... That's what friends are for, right? I think it's the least I can do.

[sageguidance]

Indeed, indeed. Yet when all is said and done, I... would like to make more use of it.

[agleam]

[he nods.]

Right. I'm only ever a typewriter message away.
