He has been alone too long, through too many lifetimes. He is a warrior, so the call to battle will always be stronger than yours can ever be. You should forget him. It was a mistake."

When she discovers that the Ore-els have taken Falco in her place, she embarks on a perilous journey to the desert kingdom.
