Uh... So apparently I left? Or, disappeared? Something, but it wasn't entirely voluntary. Anyway, I think I went home - no, I'm positive I was home. Gosh, it felt like I was there for so long, but not that long... it was only a week here.

Er, hello again! After that brief vanishing act... But I think I need another day before I get back to work.

There was another expedition, this time after Alexander at the Great McGard Library.

[There is a small pause while Sephiroth recollects-]

It was a little frustrating to say the least; so much knowledge must be contained within that place, but it's likely you'd spend multiple lifetimes there and still never absorb all of it.

I missed that? Awe...!

[Go figure he misses out on experience points.]

Huh... That sounds way too big. Guess it makes sense to turn it into a Temple hiding place.

I've still not managed to pin down exactly how many days we trawled through that place.

[It's completely possible to imagine how Sephiroth slowly shakes his head. He's just about done with all this temple-chasing.]

Certainly won't be pleased if it ends up ultimately being for naught.

Ouch. Sorry I couldn't be here to help out. I probably could've made it go by faster since I do work in Lavode's Library.

[Adrien's quite sincere about that.]

Right, it's almost time.

That's right, and we've still one more to uncover.

[To be honest, he's been itching to get to Cloud City for the last temple ever since Ursula had been so thoughtful to leave him with some information before her premature departure.

Though really, other than learning what exactly the great eidolons are, Sephiroth still feels like there's an obvious piece to this puzzle that he's either missing or had overlooked. It's hotly frustrating.]

I don't suppose you've any idea what exactly all of this temple-crawling is supposed to aid with?

... Experience, I guess? Besides awakening the Eidolons, it doesn't seem like we get that from much else here.

[Speaking as someone who fended off monsters on occasion in Arito. Also, he wasn't sure how well Sephiroth might take to him suddenly going on about role-playing games and the technical logic behind the temple-crawling.]

Disappointing. There had better be more to it than that.

[Since as it is, experience doesn't accumulate quickly enough for Sephiroth, at all. He'll never catch up, much less surpass anyone, at this rate.]

There must be something we're just not getting...

[Honestly. Maybe from the statues or something else at least...]
