Summary
On a trek through Alterna's islets to their boss's encampment, a passing challenge gives room for Big Man to think, and to swim, and to heartily appreciate the companionships he's found; even when those companions come with their own eccentricities.
He's not quite following why Agent 3 seems so bothered by the swimming, though.

Summary
The fancy blue lizard lady gave a large pair of doors a hearty push and led Marcy through the castle’s main foyer, with pillars that reached impossible heights and stained glass murals the depicted impossible victories; and oh, if it were any other day, Marcy would’ve loved to spend literal days combing through every nook and cranny of the castle. As for today, though, stress and exhaustion and vague overstimulation caused the vast palace to be more of a bleary obstacle for her to push herself through than anything, already mentally mashing buttons through the exposition being dumped on her.
---
After a few hectic days of being lost in a fantastical world; Marcy finds respite in the form of an unlikely friend.

Summary
People had looked at her many times since then, but they did not see her. They saw cracked brick through her chest, or the blue sky in her head, or the uncrushed grass beneath her shoe. Their greetings dart past her to reach Link, who answers every statement with a blinding smile and a helping hand. The weight on his shoulder is never noticed. It is why she prefers to stay with the train instead of venturing into town.
Her carelessness stripped her personhood from her. The wisdom she supposedly inherited left her vulnerable. Even if she does get her body back, she does not think she will ever escape this numb feeling in her soul.

Summary
The Angel perplexes Ralsei far more than he can handle. How could he understand them? One moment, they are hugging him. The next, they choose to fight for the first time without any prior warning. Between days, they grow more tired, like something weighs them down. Ralsei's only purpose is to serve them and the Lightners, so perhaps he just does not understand how the Angel can change so rapidly. He can never truly understand them, despite trying so hard to do so. Yet, part of him keeps wondering. Curiosity gnaws at him the more time he spends in the Angel's presence.
After a frustrating three days with the Angel, Ralsei cannot make heads or tails of their behavior. They confuse him, and he confuses them. Perhaps, Ralsei was not thinking straight when he took drastic measures. Maybe, he had been too weathered down by the previous day in the church to be able to think rationally. Against his better judgement, he calls for the Angel by name.
They answer, and Ralsei finally sees the Angel for what they are.
