The unknown adventurer flipped back his locks. They'd slipped in front of his face, and they were starting to poke into his eyes. The questions, once more, arrived, and he was still forced to answer.
"If I had a week? Aye... That is hard to answer. I don't believe I'm old enough to even contemplate my own mortality. Even with the profession I've chosen to have, I don't think about how I might die. I think about how I might be victorious..."
He takes a sip of tea, somehow a cup had been slipped under his fingers. He had no recollection of such a thing.
"Yes. I think I'll go with that. I'd go out swinging, in the midst of battle, and my request would only be that this sacrifice of mine wouldn't be in vain. Although I suppose I am vain for requesting that..." he let his sentence drawl out with a nervous laugh before continuing with the other question.

"Love? My... Is everyone on Eorzea concerned with grand matters? How far would I go for it? I'd like to say, to the death, but it'd be irresponsible of me to die before even tasting the fruits of love. Maybe my resolve isn't steeled enough for it?"
He took another sip of the tea.

"Me, it'd have to be the sight of Limsa Lominsa from the Rhotano Sea, right after the sun has set, and the stars shine on, illuminating both sea and land. That is when I understood the majesty of this continent, and one of the reasons why so many are attracted to it."
