[action | Giza Plains | OTA]
[Nanaki has been here only a few days, and not only has he been spat out by a magic portal, his materia is useless, and he wound up in a city full of clans that would happily mistake him for a monster and turn him over for a bounty. Needless to say, he fled the city before he'd live up to his feral appearance and have to fight anyone.
So, he headed south through to Giza Plains, and while the area and the nomad villages remind him a little of home, he avoids those, too. He's caused enough misunderstandings already, and there are enough wolf-like monsters in this area that he could easily be mistaken for.
He's reached as far as one of the Sunstones and flops down in the shade it casts when a thought occurs to him -- his phone! Why didn't he try that before? He pulls it out, and delicately tries to use a paw to call Cloud. (He succeeds in bringing up games twice, and then accidentally texting a string of gibberish to Tifa and hitting 'SEND' before he can stop it. Then a message pops up: 'NO SIGNAL - MESSAGE NOT SENT'.)]
I really should have gotten Reeve to design a phone I can use...
[A long-suffering sigh. He must have broken it.]

[It's not, but she doesn't know that. She was so isolated at the Weyr that she never really heard of any of those types of marvels in other places.]
It's easier to see that explain. It's like a teleport magick. I don't quite understand how it works.
[But like Balthier pointed out a long time ago, even devices you don't understand (like Way Stones) can be remarkably handy.]

[Whether he'll actually use it, he's not so sure about, given nothing like that exists on his own world. Seeing it in operation should help banish his doubts.]
