The red head woman walk into the area that Samuel's unit has taken over when they arrived in Ala Ghiri. Before she could go and speak to him, she was tackle by the blue hair and purple highlights miqo'te. "Tanya, I need your help." Even as she protested, and watching the amusement of the other soldiers in the unit, she was drag to the far wall, away from anyone that might overheard them. "I need you to get this to Warren when you get home."
Tanya Waterstrike shook her head. "John...little brother, you can send this by post moggle..." and trail off when she realize John was shaking his head. Her eyes narrow at her brother.
John blush a little then pass the letter to her. "Open it." he said, eyes watching as she unfolded the letter. Green eyes moving over the lines of the letter.
Warren,
I regret to let you know that I was unable to get a spot on the supply train. I'm sorry I'm not going to be there to help you and the others at the Grindstone.
We have arrive safely into Ala Ghiri and have set up camp here. Captain Robinton is with the other Flame Captains, working on the last details of the attack that the Alliance plan for Specula Imperatoris. It is the one last gate before we move on to reach Castrum Abania and hopefully take out the massive cannon that could be aim at the troops as we try to push into the Lochs. It will be only a matter of time from entering The Lochs that we we'll soon set to work on regaining Ala Mhigo.
I know that you and the others will be worried but with their own troops in Specula Imperatoris, they won't use the cannon on us during the fight. Please make sure that Howl doesn't try to do anything rash. I'll and the others will do our best to stay alive. I promise, Warren, that I’ll help free your and Hannah’s home from the Garleans.
I hope to be home soon and miss you all,
John Waterstrike
Tanya look up at John. "Are you sure you should be sending this?"
"It's why I'm giving it to you." John said, tugging at his glove. "I know you will get it to him. And if you are attack...I know that you would destroy the letter before anyone could get a hold of it."
"I just worry. This is war and we don't know what they will do with the cannon at Abania."
John shook his head. "I have to believe that they are monsters...no matter what they did to me and Kit at that one Castrum." He lean in as familiar yet not familiar arms wrap around him. "They wouldn't attack their own people?" he said, though to Tanya's ears, it seem more a question to her.
"I'm sure they won't but still...please be careful. It will still be very fierce fighting at Imperatoris. Do not over use your aether, John...though, I'm sure that Howl wouldn't mind letting you sleep on his shoulder." She pride herself with not giggling as she saw the inside of John's ears turn pink, and a muffle "Tanya!" came from her chest. She release him from her hug and brush some of his hair away from his eyes. "I'll make sure that Warren gets this, John. You just stay safe."
"Eagle...come on, Cap is back!" the Ala Mhigan call out.
"I'm on my way, Pathfinder."Â John gave her another quick hug before running off to join up with his unit.
Tanya shook her head, slipping the letter into her pack, and getting ready to make her way to say goodby to Samuel when a figure melt out of the shadow. "Ack...." she said, staff already coming around to hit the head of the figure, only to be stop by a single dagger. "I really hate that," she said, once she realize who it was.
Shun "Blade" Sanada lower his dagger before bowing deeply. "Forgive me, I did not mean to over hear your and Eagle's conversation," he said. "I was returning from my scouting when I saw you both." His eyes focus on the miqo'te as he was lost into the crowd of other soldiers. The pair began to move in the same direction as John. "You need not worry. Dagger unit will watch over him and each other."
Tanya smile. "I know...yet, I just want him to come back home, safe."
"Then we will make sure he does." Blade said, bowing. "The supply train will be leaving soon. I think you should go ahead and say your farewells to Cap." And with that, he was gone, disappearing into the crowd. She move in a slightly different direction, making for Samuel. Perhaps, once she reach Ul'dah, she should speak with that Captain Erik Mynhier. John did speak highly of him and had heard from one of his members...Kestloan...Kestlona that they might be in need of healers for their unit.
Tanya Waterstrike shook her head. "John...little brother, you can send this by post moggle..." and trail off when she realize John was shaking his head. Her eyes narrow at her brother.
