Who was Marluxia? That... was a pretty good question, actually. Cecil knew very little about his travelling companion. To some, this would cause suspicion, but to him it mattered not. Over the last few days, he had come to realize that his group back home had included people he had never seen before in his life. To be honest, he was starting to wonder why he had never talked to them. Had he truly been that isolated from the rest of the world? Needless to day, having actually talked to Marluxia was an improvement. But how to explain this?

"...Newcomer."

A fellow newcomer, who had not mentioned any friends who could meet up with him. That was a good start.
