This valley is oddly peaceful, isn't it - compared to a lot of places I've - and a lot here, I'd think - come from.

[ What a way to begin a message to everybody. But, really, Cid needed something to begin his proposal with. ]

If you have any gems or rocks, I can turn them into jewelry - enhanced with Magitek or not. I brought my tools with me - but I will also need some payment. Upkeep isn't free, and I don't have the Ironworks to absorb the costs.

Also, a question: for those of you who are able to use magic, does it still work in this realm?

- Cid tol Garlond.

That's good - we don't need a swarm of Lalafell running around.

That's something I'm not sure about. Aether is an Eorzean resource - and Eorzea was far richer then some Garlean territories in it. I don't have a reader, but this place seems more like the former then the latter.

You've got those skills as well? If this business takes off, I'll take you up on that. There may be complex gems even I've never seen - always good to have other eyes on them.

I have yet to see a single Lalafell let alone a 'swarm' of them.

I have not been to any Garlean territories, but it is further north even than Coerthas. That could have been a factor as well, even disregarding Eorzea's abnormally high levels of aether.

I am a goldsmith and leatherworker. I am only moderately skilled at the other crafts.

And luckily enough for our current circumstances I also am a botanist. Even if I have never farmed I at least have a starting point.

Can't be too wary. Those Syndicate lice keep looking at me like I'd give them the same power I did Lord Gaius. Pathetic.

Always could have been. I can't help but be curious about this place, however - if there may be ways to change how we think about the Garlean body.

Those two'll keep us running, for now - if you'll work with me.

I'll need to see if I can get some machinery running - I'm not a botanist of any sort - not even before I went to the academy.
