Would it be alright to ask questions that can be asked of NPCs here instead of piling NPC threads onto you pair? If so-

1. Who is it they're at war with? (With I imagine some excuses that Tidus doesn't pay well attention) -- unless he can find the name of the force elsewhere, and then ask what relations with them have been like? What do people know about them?

2. Is there any big dangers around the volcano people know/have heard about?

3. What do people know about Aerlie? If people were to go to the mountain, what's good to know?
