[Jacqli appears on the Plane with the smuggest of smirks on her face. It's almost... dark, the way she wears it. She looks like she has all of the answers, like everything is going her way and nothing can stop it. And in this particular case, she's probably right. ~~Which is probably the scary part.~~]

... Finally.

[She looks around, wondering who might be around. Then she decides that it doesn't matter, and makes her way to the beach. The desolate, waterless sand seems an ideal place for something like this, anyway. And once she's there, situated and ready, she rolls her shoulders back, tosses her hair out of her face and stands a bit straighter.]

I'll make sure it's ready before I go back.

[Suddenly, there's music, and she begins to sing.

Of course here, on the Plane, her words are translated for all...

Enjoy the free show.]

[She smirks back -- not quite what's going on, but hey, close enough.] The original was meant to calm the listener. It was meant to bring happiness.

[It was a song not meant for combat or war. So it was ignored. Rejected. And she was deemed a failure. And so, it all went steadily downhill from there... but. She's not going to think about that.]

I hope so. I've made it quite clear that such a weak thing is beneath me. If they're smart, they'll listen.

[She shakes her head. Tease away~ She'll just answer anyway.] The Holy Maidens are both reyvateils, of course. One of the vanguards is as well. The rest are human. As for a solution... I haven't. But, in the meanwhile, there's nothing keeping me from helping these people create the real Metafalica.

I see. [she smiles a little sadly; it seems a shame for a song like that to have to be used in battle. but at the same time, it's nice to see that--assuming her hunch is right--the same sentiment has carried through for Jacqli since way back when]

[she knew that about the Holy Maidens, but she couldn't resist the question. she nods] Worth travelling with, or 'ave you come to get away from them for a while? [she frowns] The real--what do you mean?

They're worth traveling with. They're not useless, at least. [Teasing~]

The land they created the first time was corrupted. It wasn't the real Metafalica, what the new land should have been. There should be an answer. We just have to find it. [Aaand then she rolls her eyes.] Too bad at the moment, we've been sidetracked by ridiculous human power games. Though I guess in a way, it's still part of the same central problem.

[she smirks] Glad to 'ear it.

Ahh, got it. [from past conversations, she knew that about the land, but the name was unfamiliar. now, she nods in understanding--though at Jacqli's last comment, her lip quirks with wry amusement] What, human ambition?
