Characters: Eiko, Tifa and Denzel
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: Eiko detours to Madain Sari on the way back to Lindblum and drags the others along.
Location: Madain Sari
Date: January 1804
Warnings: You could die of the cute?

Eiko and Denzel had both fussed and sulked when they found out that Cloud and Shelke left to rescue Nanaki and left them behind. Eiko really more than Denzel. She'd been quite the brat, yelling and stomping. Being treated like a little kid was so annoying to her she just couldn't stand it. So after a fair bit of whining and pleading, she'd finally gotten an agreement to go to Madain Sari so she could pray at the Eidolon Wall. Then home.

The child led the way, winding through the mountain path, stopping to chatter with moogles along the way.  The village came into view and Eiko raced ahead. "That's it! We're home!"

Home for Eiko was a village in crumbles, signs of utter devastation, and not even recently. Still when she strolled into the empty streets, kupos rang out from every direction and a mass of moogles flocked to her side. "Welcome to Madain Sari!" she announced to her traveling friends.

Oh, the painting were the Eidolons? It was all so new and quite exciting to the boy.

"Our summons live in little orbs." Well, he wasn't so sure they 'lived' in them, but it was a nice way to think of it. "Summon Materia. I've only seen one summon monster back home though."

"Materia?" she asked, head tilting to the side from curiosity. She poked a hand in her pocket and pulled out a handful of summoning gemstones. "Like this?"

Denzel nodded at the gemstones. "Yeah, kinda like that! All our magic comes from Materia. They say it's the knowledge of the Ancients."

"These help us strengthen our eidolons," Eiko explained. "Although sometimes they live in secret places or like Phoenix can be summoned from one of his pinions." She reached in her pocket and pulled out a fiery feather.

"Who're the Ancients?"

Denzel reached out to touch the feather, drawing his hand back a little before he made contact.

"The Ancients were..." The boy paused, trying to remember the things he had learned. "They're people with the ability to communicate with the Planet and the Lifestream. Aerith was the last living one but... she was killed."
