[It was a day like any other in House 28. Or so it seemed, at least. Asbel went to knock on Cheria's door, hoping to ask her if she wants to come with him somewhere, and it didn't involve training. He's definitely felt better about his relationship with Cheria recently than he has in the past, knowing he shouldn't try so hard or worry so much, and just be natural with her.
No answer comes from beyond Cheria's door. It's a bit weird. He didn't see her anywhere else in the house, and if she's stepped out, she usually leaves a note.]
...Cheria? Are you in there?
[again, no answer. So strange. Maybe she's asleep? Normally, he doesn't enter her room without her permission, but against his better judgment, decides to open the door and come in.]
Cheria, are you--
[What he finds... Is an empty room.]
[Voice]
[His voice sounds hoarse when he goes to deliver the message. He's not sure why it hurt so much more for her to go home than it did when Sophie or Hubert left. Maybe it was because things had changed so much between the two of them? Knowing things weren't going nearly as smoothly for them back home...]
To anyone that might have known her, Cheria Barnes has left Luceti.
[The recording ends there.]

Why shouldn't she? I'd imagine she sees it in your past self already.
[voice]
Back home, we're both so busy. I'm trying to lead the people of Lhant, and she's involved with her relief work... It seems like the only time we had together is when we were trying to save our world. I don't know how she could be happy with me like that.

...I guess that what makes this place not all that bad to me. Here, I'm just another person.
[voice]
I don't believe anyone is 'just another person', but particularly not here. If that were the case, we would not be here.
