Eli brushed off the last of the smudges as Vash spoke to him, picking up his blade he frowned.
"I hope so, Seth seems to think I should be able to use it immediately...whatever 'it' is." he put the blade back in his makeshift sheath and pounded his fist in his palm. "But I'm gonna get this! No matter what it is!"

Kouji onestly didn't expect the sweep attack, so he took a rap on the shins and tripped, falling to the ground before propelling himself back up, smiling genuinely.
"Hey, you're not too bad, for a beginner," he said.

Vash smiled again at Eli.
"That's the problem; it's different for all of us, so it's difficult to teach being one of us. A Lunar Knight, that is. Of course, some things - like drawing the moon's energy into us - are the same for everyone. You've just gotta... 'feel' it, y'know? Kinda difficult to explain. But like I said, you're pretty smart, I'm sure you can figure it out."
THere was a world of difference in him; the jokester, the silly guy, both were gone. His soft smile seemed... almost ageless, as though he'd lived a lot longer than he let on.
"There's one thing to remember, though. It's important."

Eli placed his hands behind his head, turning to Vash, "Yeah? What's that?"

He smiled. "Trust. You have to trust yourself, and you have to trust her." He pointed toward the moon. "That's the biggest secret of being a Lunar Knight. Trust and faith. Y'know?" His smile became a grin. "Without that, you don't have anything. Trust your friends, too; they're always there for you."

"Yea yea, Friends and trust." Volkmar said, kinda mockingly, "But you need to be able to fight with a weapon. You can't piggyback on your friend's strength, you have to build your own strength to kill anything!" He did a fist pump, and pulled out his swords.

"So to be strong I have to believe in my friends...and get stronger on my own...and make sure I have friends with me...and become strong enough to kill anything..." he let out a growl of frustration, "You two aren't helping! Make up your mind already!"

"I am right. " Volk said as he pointed to himself, "Ok, Let's look, You can follow me, and become amazingly strong, and get your friends, and the ladies. Or you can follow his advice and end... up... like... him."

Tidus listened in on Eli, Vash, and Volkmar talking as Yuna was finishing laying out her bedding for the night. No matter how hard he tried he couldn't help but think of Xisa's words...
He couldn't seem to keep his worries confined in his head, he was fidgeting, whenever he heard Volk speak he would get this distracted worried look on his face.

"Hey! What's wrong with being me? Freedom, the road, everything a guy could want! 'Sides, I'm older than you anyway..." He sounded like a grumpy kid.

She gave him a strange look.
"....Tidus, what's the matter? You don't look okay."

"I have freedom and the road!" Volk said, sticking his arms in the air, "But people get out of my way because I have strength that I have within me."

Tidus looked at her for a moment and considered lying to her, but when he heard Volkmar speaking again in the background he had a change of heart. He sat down on the ground and began to give Yuna an explanation, about Volkmar, about his powers, and about what Xisa told him.
"...and he will be consumed by it's power, that's what he said anyway." Tidus said, "If Volkmar achieves the pure power of Black Moon he will be lost in it. For awhile I thought I could handle it but..."
He turned to Incendia trying to sleep on the side and frowned, "With what Incendia just told us I...I am a little worried. What if the child is born and Volk in his rage hurts it?"

She thought about that for a little while.
"Hmm. I don't know... Volk may be a berserke, but... there's one thing he'll never do, and that's hurt his friends, and the same for the peolpe he really loves." She sat down on the edge of her pallet. "I don't know if this 'Xisa' was tlling the truth, or lying, or what, but..." She shrugged. "Right now... I don't think there's anything we can do. If Volk starts going down that path, then... I guess it's up to us to stop it, right?" She looked up at him earnestly. "As his friends. He wouldn't want to really hurt anyone, no matter what he may pretend. So, I guess what I'm saying is..."
She paused.
"I guess I'm saying that if that happens, we'll stop him long before he hurts his child or anyone else; Volk would want us to. He's got a good heart, I think... I think he can beat this." She smiled at him.

Tidus listened to her speak and looked over his shoulder to Volkmar, he sighed laid down on the small spot he called for the night.
"I hope you're right Yuna...I really do..." he sighed and stared at the slightly darker Crepusculum night sky. All the night stars were appearing, he thought about them and he thought about the moons above them...wherever they were. The more he looked up at the stars the more he thought...could the Ketalunains have been doomed by the very moons they lived by?
