She chuckled at his words. Unfortunately, no answer to his question.

"You are all too correct." Then her smile suddenly faded. As if she'd dropped the act. "History repeats itself. It is a never-ending cycle. Existence itself is but a gigantic puzzle. Once the puzzle completed, you can do naught but undo it and start anew. You may go about it differently, start with different pieces, in a different order. But try as you may, the end result shall always be the same. We both are living proofs of this immutable fact."

"The only way to be free, it to destroy the puzzle itself."

She finally placed her glass back on the table.

"The fear of life and death drives my every actions. Yet... It's not so simple as that any more. I have lived already. I have known death as well. So, so many times. Would it be too melodramatic to say I am tired?" She rose an eyebrow. "Perhaps if I fail, you shall be the next Kalki and see for yourself."

She waved toward the exit.

"Pray, ask Reno and Selphie should you wish to know more about Garland. You can return to your airship. This concludes our discussion."
