Normally, I'd think learning a language from dreams would be pretty cool. It's a new language and you learn it just from dreams, and that's pretty cool.

You know what's less cool? A language no one else will speak.

Ruf ec drec rambvim?

I doubt I could put 'speaks fluent Al Bhed' on any resume ever.

There's a super cute Korean restaurant opening up not far from my place, do you fancy giving it a try?

	What's Al Bhed? The language? It looks a bit like Welsh. I don't speak welsh, but it looks a bit like that. Does it sound like Welsh? Man, I wanna have these dreams. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	There's less phlegm involved. The Al Bhed are ... they're desert dwellers. They're amazing builders. One of them is on my team and he taught me the language during our mission. So now I speak a language no one else does. Ech'd dryd luum. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Like nomads? I'm okay at learning languages, I know a couple. You could teach me if you wanted? Then someone else would speak it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not entirely, there's only really one area that the Al Bhed call home. Our religion was exceptionally exclusionary towards Al Bheds, because they don't follow the same one as most of Spira. It's complex. That could be fun, if you're up for learning some semi-useless information. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh man that sucks, like the people on Dathomir having their home destroyed because they used the Force in a different way? I'm always up for learning semi-useless information. You're talking to the guy who can talk you through tech specs for ships that don't even exist. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Kind of. In Spira, the Fayth is something that embodies all the temples, Yevon teaches us that the Fayth is all that can save us from Sin, which isn't just our sins, but an actual entity that tears through the world and destroys places. Summoners are able to harness the Fayth to battle Sin. Apparently, Sin was born from our reliance on machina, which is what the Al Bhed create.

I have this feeling that I really want to be on an airship. Like, not a plane, but something bigger.

	O_O your dream world sounds amazing. I want to go there. Other than maybe this Sin thing... Oh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some of the talents coming through are handy, but this is ... I mean, it's cool, but it's definitely not going to serve me well here. It's not, but one of my friends is Al Bhed. He likes to gossip in his native. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's rather difficult without someone else. Although the three others in my group all speak it, most of the others don't. I'm slightly better at mechanical stuff, building and the like. Although most of my skills are in recording data and research. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mmm. We're a squad, I guess. It's a training exercise, to find a weapon to stop something destroying our world. That's true, my ability to retain information is definitely growing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Seems like, I haven't had any injuries come through, but in the dreams I have heal potions and spells. It's been about five dreams? Gippal has been teaching me for a while there, so I guess the skill bled in now I'm fluent there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
