This was the life. Rinoa relaxed on a sun lounger, soaking up the rays. Behind her sunglasses, her eyes were closed. She could hear the waves lapping gently against the beach in the background. It was as though the dragon invasion had never happened.

A group of holidaymakers passed by, laughing and joking as they headed for the sea. Rinoa sat up to take a look around. Hmm. Maybe it was time she went for a swim. But first she needed to reapply her sun cream. She smoothed back her hair and picked up her bottle of sun lotion. Now was there anyone around who might want to help?

Rydia reached over to poke him in the ribs, upon seeing that smirk. There was a brief moment when she wondered if he was ticklish, but even she didn't care try to find out, yet. "Good. I take it she's resting now, but maybe in a bit?"

He wasn't very ticklish, especially given the armor he wore, but he did make a face when she poked him. Still, since the subject remained on Zephyr, he didn't become annoyed at all. "She is, at the moment. At her age, she still does need a great deal of sleep... but I'll eventually take the excuse of checking on her to leave here." It was a perfect way to get himself out of here, really.

Rydia nodded, unsurprised. "You have your duty. I understand." She knew he would likely grab any reason not to linger longer than he felt obliged, but raising Zephyr was a reason she could support. "Still...take the peaceful moment for what it is. I don't think we're likely to see many of them, in the coming months."

At least he wouldn't have to stay here much longer, since he could claim he needed to check up on Zephyr at anytime. "I have to agree... after everything that's happened... it seems to only get worse, each time." Although Kain himself had found it easier to fight dragons, something he was equipped to do, than deal with Memoria or the Epitaphs. The dragon attack still seemed to have had the most worldwide devastation.

"All the more reason to be careful." Rydia crossed her arms, hoping he would be more cautious now that he had a young one to support. Still, she knew that he was also a warrior and wouldn't shirk his fair share of battle. It was difficult, knowing that Gaia's events might yet cost more lives, possibly those dear to her. And was there ever a guarantee of them returning?

Kain looked at her thoughtfully. She was right that he couldn't really sit back if there was fighting to be done. He would be protecting Zephyr by fighting their enemies... and given a few months, she would be large enough to be helpful in battle as well. "I'll attempt, but I must always do my part to defend against anything that threatens us... No matter what form it might take."
