All set, Kupo!

Thanks Ben'. Mornin'! Hope I'm not wakin' any of ye, but nows as good a time as any I suppose. S' been an eventful month, what with Ganeshan an' his antics but I've been doin' some pokin' about since we learned about the Dreadwyrm and loath as I am te admit te it, I think we need te find some more Eidolons; 'specially the other Great ones. Phoenix an' whatnot.

At any rate, I'm plannin' on taking a look in the Sakura Forest, up by Von Oktavia. Stories say an Eidolon makes 'is home there an' I figured it's as good a place as any te start lookin. If anyone wishes te join me, let me know! The monsters there are no joke, so I'd be happy for a few of ye at my back.

If yer interested in comin' along, let me know, yeah?

A VERY FRIENDLY, HUGGABLE SKELETON!

[It's important to make that distinction, given... well. Some people have reacted with more shock than others in the past. Best to play it safe!]

[ There is a very long pause. ]

Ye know....Yer not even the first friendly Ashkin I've come across. I'll make sure ye can stay close te your friend.

ASH...KIN?

[He blinks a few times.]

I'M AFRAID THE TERM'S A BIT UNFAMILIAR TO ME. WHAT EXACTLY DO SKELETONS HAVE TO DO WITH ASH?

[littlemhigan]

Aye! Ashkin's my world's name for any restless dead; skeletons, zombies, ghosts and the like.

...

...

Unless yer not restless dead and jes, somehow, a friendly, magically animated skeleton.

[Ah, that again. He chuckles. At this point, he's used to it, but it's still kinda puzzling.]

I'M DEFINITELY NOT DEAD. DEAD MONSTERS ARE JUST... DUST.

YES, SURPRISING AS IT MAY SEEM, I'M JUST A SKELETON! JUST ANOTHER TYPE OF MONSTER SPECIES, BORN BONES AND ALL.
