[video, minor derailment]

[shiningwaters]

It still happened. Even though I tried to warn Terra, even though I tried to warn the Master...Terra still failed. The darkness still appeared when we sparred--is it my fault somehow?

[Off in the distance, a gruff, old voice can be heard faintly]

Not here, you won't. I have to keep up appearances.

...Wait, that's Master Xehanort's voice. Who's he talking to?

...I need to talk to Terra.

It is, and now I'm worried. That other voice is someone named Vanitas--I've fought him before.

I won't distract you then. This may be critical snooping.

They just split up. I don't know which one I should follow...

Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

Re: [text]

[shiningwaters]

Right. No matter what Master Xehanort's up to, if he has to try to seem good here, then I can afford to leave him alone for a little while. Vanitas, on the other hand, is definitely hostile.

[former_endboss]

Exactly. I'm glad that I don't have to spell everything out for everyone here.

[shiningwaters]

Now, I'm really worried. He's heading toward the bedrooms.

[former_endboss]

Would anyone be there right now?

[shiningwaters]

Ven might have gone back to his room. He's not as strong as we are--he won't stand a chance!

[former_endboss]

Stay your blade a moment. Towards and might are no reason to abandon stealth.

[shiningwaters]

You're right. And if I do anything sudden, it might give him a reason to attack Ven.

[former_endboss]

I don't think I can give you much more timely advice from here on out-if things escalate, they'll probably do so quickly.

[shiningwaters]

Thanks. I think all I can do is wait and be ready.
