What am I supposed to say to this thing?

[10 seconds pass]

I'm Roxas. This is my phone.

[What was that sound?]

Um...are you okay?

Uh huh ...

[The answer is slightly muffled. She's rubbing her face.]

I know it's a lot to hear.

[And it's just the start.]

[It's sinking in a little more slowly than she would have liked. The very worst part is that she just can't fathom how things could have spiraled out of control so thoroughly ... she understands, to some extent, the discrepancies of time and space that Siren's Port creates. Sora, Riku, Kairi -- they were so much older than when she first met them all, but she can't imagine why someone wasn't there to guide them as they grew.]

... Yes. I ...

[If not her own Master, then... why had she not returned to Radiant Garden to check on Kairi's well-being? Where was she when that girl lost her heart -- and when Sora lost his? Where had Terra been? And Ventus?]

I'm sorry. I don't know what to say.

it's okay.

[How could he expect her to listen to all of this without batting an eye? No one could.

And there's still so much to tell. Ansem, Xemnas...Xehanort. What he'd done to Terra, in their world and again in Siren's Port. He couldn't begin to tell those stories now even if he wanted to.]

I don't either.

I'd like to talk to you again soon, Roxas. I just...

[That would be one thing she would expect to come from Terra directly. The change in her friend -- physical and otherwise -- commands some sort of explanation. ... Someday.]

... I think I need some time.

Sure. I understand.

[He hesitate for a moment.]

I'm glad you're back. Terra and Ven haven't been the same without you.

[Despite everything ... ]

I'm relieved to have found my way back. Take care, okay?

Yeah. You too.
