Amphion sat quietly by the pond, his mind focus on digging past the mental barriers that kept him from remembering his past... yet no matter how long he tried, nothing would ever come to him.
Besides a Katana and a Blue Pearl, there was nothing tying him to his past... this left him lost and helpless. A Sage with so much power... and he couldn't even remember his true name, it was humiliating.
"Blast this!" He roared, falling out from his meditation, "Why do I even try!"
Then he heard something, his eyes darted toward the thick bush, waiting for anything to come out.

"Wh-wh-wh-WHOA!" shouted a voice as something - or, rather, someone - fell from the bushes.
His long, red cloak was a little torn from the branches, and closer inspection would reveal many more such tears that had been mended with careful hands; this man obviously traveled quite a bit. Strapped to his back was a cloth-wrapped, cross-shaped bundle.

Amphion took a step back, he may be blind but because of his magic he could sense that the man who fell in front of him was a force of good. Amphion straightened up, returning to his cool calculated self.
"Are you alright?" he questioned, his magic scanning every inch of the man, retrieving all the information possible.

He sat up, brushing himself off and grinning sheepishly.
"Hahah, yeah, I'll be fine! This actually happens more often than you might think.... am I interrupting something?"

Amphion shook his head, he now understood that meditating wasn't going to bring his memories back.
"No, you're fine." Amphion said, "My name is Amphion, by the way."
He had hoped by saying his name the man would somehow recognize it... that's how desperate he felt.

"Hmm..." He thought for a moment. "Sounds... kinda familiar, but I can't remember where from. Oh well. I'm Vash!" He bounced to his feet, holding out a black-gloved hand to shake.

This brought a little hope to Amphion, the fact that the name might even be familiar was a glimmer of hope for him. He outstretched his hand to shake Vash's, magic guiding his every step until he gripped his hand.
"Nice to meet you, Vash." He said as he shook his hand, "What bring you all the way out here anyway?"

With magic active, Amphion could feel something strange moving in Vash, a very odd magic.
"Nice to meetcha!" he said, cheerily. "You okay? You look a bit wobbly."

Amphion sensed this was no average man, he couldn't exactly read what he was though.
"I was... searching, I guess you could say..." Amphion explained, "I'm a little exhausted, I've been here for two days now without rest."

"Well, that's definitely not good for you," he replied, grinning. "Why dontcha come with me and I'll get you something to eat? I'm out here traveling 'cause I like to's all."

This surprised Amphion, normally people don't show that hospitality towards a man they just met.
"You would offer me food... yet you only know my name..." Amphion spoke his thoughts out loud, "Why would you do such a thing?"

He grinned. "I'm ust a lnely traveller, wandering through the wildrness. SHould someone come upon me, I would wish for them to do the same. I am the solitary warrior of peace and love, carrying Justice in my heart... Justice does not let a an go hungry, no matter how litle one knows him!" Vash was striking a justice-filled pose, tears of joy, love, and peace streaming from his eyes, and he was making a justice-face.
ALl in all? He made a very silly sight.

Is... he really crying?
His entire speech made Amphion a little more confused, but the fact he was offering free food was good enough for him, "I see... then in that case I should be inclined to take you up on that offer."

He smiled, completely snapped out of whatever mood had taken him. "ALright, sure! C'mon, the town's this way. I think I still have some sandwiches in my pack, though...." He started to dig through the pack as he led the way.

Amphion nodded as Vash led the way.
"May I ask something?" Amphion asked, "I'm pretty tuned in to the magic around me, yet I can not figure this out... what type of power do you exactly have?"
