A shimmer, nothing more flickered in the man's eye, then disappeared. The song birds ceased their melodies, the wind its playing...

"Izlude?" Nocturne frantically searched for the faint sign, believing it would lead him to his grandson. "Izlude, where are you?"

The boy seemed to have surface only several seconds later....

Nocturne dived once again into the lake, panic clawing at his heart...
A woman spotted Izlude as she was out gathering herbs. "Who...? Who are you?!"

"Huh?" Izlude closed his eyes as he padded his clothing. "I... I don't know. Can you tell me where I am, miss?" He asked. He couldn't remember much... just a lake.

"You're near Miska. It's a trading town, and also the home of my family and I. And you say you don't know who you are?" The woman asked as she finished gathering the herbs, tied her satchel up and stood.

The boy only shook his head. "No... I just remember a lake." He muttered, looking down at the ground with a blush. "I don't know where to go..."

"Very well. I'll take you back to Miska; my family can take you in until you find a relative or someone. Besides, it'll do my daughter good to have some company other than my husband and I."

"A d-daughter?" Izlude timidly asked as he began to follow the woman.

"My daughter Florina. Poor thing; she's been abed with illness for months now. The doctors still don't know what's wrong with her." The woman looked as though she was going to cry at the words.

"I-I'm sorry..." Izlude softly frowned as he found that he could not help the woman.

The woman wiped her eyes and said, "It's not your fault. I just pray to the goddesses every day that she'll get better." The two continued walking until they reached Miska, a large city. "Here's the city. I'll take you to my home, if you want to come."

"Oh... I want to come!!" Izlude cried as he nodded. 'I want to meet her!'

"Alright, let's go then." The woman then led Izlude to a modest house in the traders' district. "It's not much, but it's home." She took the boy inside, where they saw a pale young girl with light purple hair lying on a couch.

Izlude opened his mouth at all. Suddenly he felt awful. He could not even tell why, but...
He only ended up staring at the young girl. Here he was, healthy and adorned with what it appears to be noble clothing.

The girl looked to the woman and said in a weak voice, "Mom...? What's going on? Who is he?" "I don't know, Florina dear, but he's lost his memory. I thought it would be nice if you had someone besides Dad and I to talk to." Florina looked to Izlude and asked, "Are you a noble, sir?"

"I... I don't know..." Izlude blushed, scratching the back of his head. "I-I think so, judging by these clothes... Um... are you okay?"

"Don't worry, sir. I'll be-" Florina broke into a fit of violent coughing as her mother placed her hands on the girl's shoulders to steady her. "I'll be fine. I'm just a little sick."

Izlude only frowned. "I... I don't want to be a nuisance to you all... should I help with anything...? I could go get fish... or try to find medicine!"

"We couldn't ask you to do that." Florina's mother said gently as she began making herbal tea. Florina herself looked at Izlude and asked, "Can you come a little closer? I want to be able to really see you."
