[ When Xion arrived back home from a grueling month-long mission, the first thing she did was not check her journal. She headed home. Home, where Luke is. He'd been there, which was wonderful.

He'd also filled her in on all that she'd missed, which wasn't so wonderful. ]

It's scary, sometimes... how much things change. I missed so much while I was gone. I'm so sorry, everyone. I'm home now.

Sometimes, I feel like I've been here such a long time... maybe because it has been a long time. It'll be three years in November... won't it? I don't remember anymore when I got here... I'm pretty sure it was November. It feels like so long ago. Like lifetimes have passed since then. I've grown up so much in this place... and so many people have come and gone. [ Kairi.

A beat. ]

I'm sorry. I shouldn't be rambling like this.

We're starting to get some New Feathers in, right? My name is Xion. I work at the clinic, I'm part of the S.O.S Brigade, and I'm head of the Kyoshi warriors. If you ever need help, you can come talk to me. I'll do anything I can.

Um... I guess I have one last thing I want to talk about. I've got a lot of points now from going on missions... what do you guys do with your points? Or what would you do, if you had them? I sort of know what I want, but I guess I'm looking for other ideas, too.

Thanks, everyone.

Ven! [ With warmth. ]

Thanks. I think they went pretty well. There was a lot of fighting... and I had to teach! But I think I did okay. How have you been?

[risingwinds]

Well, I'm glad it went well, even if you were super busy! You must've gotten a ton of points from all the hard work.

As for me, I'm doing okay. Things got a little hectic when all the Kin'corans showed up, but other than that, nothing too serious has happened.

[fourteen]

Yeah! About forty.

But yeah, I heard about that.... I'm glad you're okay. I still wish I'd been here for it.

[risingwinds]

Aw, don't worry! It was really crazy over here, anyway.

[He shrugs.]

Not that I've got anything against all the refugees. After what they'd been through, it only makes sense for them to be suspicious of us.

[fourteen]

... they were suspicious?

[risingwinds]

Yeah. And maybe a little jealous.

Some of 'em attacked us! It... wasn't pretty.

[fourteen]

[ ... ]

But why? Jealous... I think I can understand that. But suspicious?

[risingwinds]

Well, you gotta remember that they lost a whole bunch of their people. After an incident like that, I'd be worried, too. And I think some of 'em thought we were on the Malnosso's side.
