Palom considered spoiling the moment...for about a tenth of a second. He kept his mouth shut, unable to restrain a smile as he watched the romance between the two.

Rydia was in awe as Midgar drew closer. "Good god, it looks like the city had multiple floors and that the top one totally crashed down on the bottom one. I imagine the people who were promptly crushed when the top floor came down were the lucky ones."

Rydia looked regretful. "My apologies. I just thought that the people killed from the crushing died instantly, without really suffering. This place looked to have gone through this incident a long time ago, yet I can see some areas still burning. We should expect a seriously hazardous adventure here."

'Cecil put his sword back into its sheet but kept his shield on, then placed himself so that he could protect the "weaker" ones from attacks from the right flank.

OOC: and by weaker i mean mages and such, you cant say they arent weaker physicaly.

Tifa began thinking of what happened to her bar, her comrades, and all the others in Sector-7. She almost began to cry, I can't cry now. It's all over and there is more at stake here. She fought back the tears and started to climb.

Looking over at Cloud and Tifa, Celes said "I have some idea of how it feels. When Kefka destroyed my world, I lost a lot of friends, and nearly lost more." Then noticing a pair of slightly damaged trucks (By slightly I mean plenty of body damage, but possably runnable) she said "Say, think we could use those for transportation?"

"What are they? I've never seen a device like that. I can see wheels so I guess it's like a carriage or something." Rydia said as she stayed with Celes. "I can sort of understand where you're coming from as well. The Red Wings, under the command of Golbez, obliterated a small number of mighty kingdoms, and under the imposter king's orders, Cecil accidently slew my mother and burned down my village. A lot more tragedy would have occured if we didn't stop the Giant of Babel when it was awakened."

'Reminded by Rydias words Cecil stoped walking and looked down at the ground'
"im sorry... Rydia, i did not know what was going to happen" Cecil said.

Looking at Cecil Celes said "Guess we've got a lot in common then." Looking over the trucks Celes thought to herself <I wish Edgar were here. He's good at this sort of thing.>
