Thamasa had experienced a dramatic change since the last time Lile had visited the town. It was intact the first time Lile was there, but now, the townspeople were reconstructing their houses and the clatter of hammers engulfed the town. "Wow, these people are strange. They must enjoy levelling their houses and rebuilding it again," thought the little sprite. Lile proceeded to the Mayor's house with the 3 elementals following him. The Mayor's house was under construction too and the little sprite found the Mayor behind the house, nailing a stretch of wood onto his house. The Mayor stopped his work when he noticed Lile coming up the walkway. "Hello there, little one. I see you found the other elementals." The little sprite introduced the Mayor to the 3 elementals. "You've met Undine and these other two are Salamando and Sylphid. The fourth one is with Relm right now." The Mayor examined the elementals and was pleased with Lile's work. "Good job, little one. A man named 'Banon' said he wanted to see you and the elementals you have. I think you should visit Banon. A ship will arrive here later and its next destination is Jidoor, where Banon is. Go to the inn in Jidoor and find a man named 'Broak.' He's expecting you and he'll take you to Banon..." A few hours later, the ship heading towards Jidoor arrived and Lile boarded the ship. The passengers were lead to their rooms and soon, the ship departed for Jidoor. The little sprite slept peacefully for the first few nights but on the fifth night, he encountered a mysterious dream... ____________________________________________________________________________ A white, stocky figure, with small arms and legs, and two mini wings on the back, stood under a tree. The little sprite could not identify the creature but in some way, he felt like he had seen it before. He approached the creature and asked, "Who are you?" "Kupo!" responded the teddy bear like figure. "Huh? You shouldn't talk when you're mouth is full," said Lile. "Kupi! Kupoppo! I'm a moogle!" "Moogle?" The little sprite examined the moogle who appeared vaguely familiar. "Kupi! Kupoppo! Walk the seasons from spring to winter, spring again and we can enter..." "Um ... Huh?? Where do I enter?" "Kupi! Kupoppo! Walk the seasons from spring to winter, spring again and we can enter..." ___________________________________________________________________________ The sprite awakened, and realized it was just a dream. Undine, Salamando, and Sylphid were still sleeping under the bed and snoozing quite loudly too. Lile jumped down from his bed and woke all three elementals. "Rise and shine, guys," Lile called. Agitated, Salamando responded, "Oh, Lile. I just experienced the most wonderful dream! I was relaxing in a soothing, warm pool of lava and admiring the tranquillity... and then you woke me up!" "I had a dream too. Some creature calling itself a moogle was just talking to me. It looked like a white teddy bear and had two small wings on its back. Do any of you know what a moogle is?" Salamando shook his head. "A teddy bear with wings on the back? You know, I've heard rumors about a horse with a horn sticking out of its head." The other two elementals didn't know what a moogle was either. "Ok, guys. You can go back to sleep then but don't snooze to loudly. You're terrifying the passengers." In the days that followed, the little sprite contemplated on the dream he had and the creature that called itself a 'moogle.' He wondered about the statements the moogle had said and why it even appeared in his dream...
