I wrote out a whole long introduction about this, and then I accidentally hit a link, so FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU---
Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed the first two chapters of
When Jeuno Fell so far!
New to the story? Want to reread? A kind of book-like pdf version of the first two chapters (and all chapters as I finish them) can be found
here on my website.
I hope you're all enjoying the story! This Chapter details what should be a very simple sweep of Vana'diel, but there's one problem: Square Enix created this universe, and we all know that
anything SE makes is incapable of acting as simply and smoothly as it should.
And without further delay, please, enjoy the third chapter;
On A Pale Chocobo!

Day 85:
A few days at sea and I’m already bored.
Such is life, I suppose.
We decided to alter course and start off at Mhaura under the assumption that it was a relatively easy area for the town’s people to defend if the Turned and Demons had come, and that if it was taken over that we could probably contain it quite quickly simply by staying on the boats and making the enemies waltz into the water and drown themselves.
Sometimes, life is simple.
Packed into my quarters was this blank diary. I found it yesterday as I looked through my coffer of clothes.
I never was too complex with clothes. I’m kind of glad that the only garbs I have left are just variations of the same basic outfit.
The diary was wrapped in red silk, and I think the perfume that I could have sworn I smelt was more than just from memories and longings.
The more I think about her, the more sick I make myself feel over the whole situation.
I keep telling myself that every emotion will pass in due time.
I wonder if that’s good or bad?
The sword I picked out is very nice. I’ve been sparring with Cai.
It seems like I’ve just grown naturally better. Must be something to do with the fact that I killed a hell of a lot of Mamools, and a hell of a lot of them used swords. I guess that’s a plus to it.
When you’re living a crises, I suppose that any bit of good luck is amazing.
