"You're not even as attractive as I thought you'd be..."

Characters:  The Warrior of Light, Matoya.
Progress:  Incomplete
Summary:  A meeting of the FF1 cast in its current entirety.
Location:  Matoya's Cave.
Date:  October 1st.
Warnings: ...Matoya?

He was approaching what had to be the cave that he had been told about, the one where the wise woman Matoya lived. He had come here intending to ask if the woman knew anything of the Chaos Shrine and how he and the others who were looking for Garland could get to that place. If she had tolerated it, he had intended to ask her about the few things he remembered from his past. It would do no harm for him to try. The worst that could happen would be that she tired of his questions, or that she had no answers for him.

Now, though, he had so many other things that he wished to ask. He wanted to know about the Lucavi. He wanted to ask if the Iifa tree would bring Firion back to life. He knew that hunting Garland was the most important thing for him to do, but  wanting justice for Firion's death, and the more personal curiosity about his past warred inside of him. He only hoped that he could manage to ask all of these things.

The cave, as he approached it, did not seem to be anything of particular importance. It looked like a cave like any other from the outside. It was only once he reached the entrance that the Warrior saw the brooms sweeping the room of their own accord, and muttering to themselves. It was an odd sight, but he did not find himself completely surprised by it. It made some sort of sense for these things to be here in the place where Matoya was supposed to be.

"This place..."

Matoya leveled him a look that said quite clearly she was less than impressed. Difficult to do when she was still entirely blind and yet so she did. "Are you as daft as you are unattractive?"

An annoyed snort escaped her and she set to the business of drinking her tea. For all appearances her interview seemed at an end, yet she had not thrown her guest out, as she was wont to do. After draining half the cup, she deigned to speak. "Will he be allowed to live or will someone seek to end his life? When he dies, he will be reborn Chaos and perpetuate the cycle. You have seen this once before. There is always a need to stop him, always a need to put him closer to the rebirth."

"He can't."

Short, sweet and painfully to the point. "I told you, the cycle cannot be stopped. He will fall and be reborn. His mastery of time is absolute."

Matoya sighed heavily. More than anything she wished to see an end as well. There was one she had foreseen but it was not now. "You would have to remove the spirit of Chaos from the world. That time has not yet come."

"You'll know." She frowned at him, motioning to the exit. "Losing your temper won't hasten the day. You have your answers. Now leave."
