[OOC:There are heavy spoilers for Shadowbringers onward in this post.]
Ever since arriving here -- or rather more aptly drifted to sleep -- G'raha had been keeping himself busy. Whether it be to learn more about this place or his aetheryte research, he'd been hard at work. Upon waking up here, he had worried about the others and maybe even coming alone. It was comforting to know he wasn't here alone.
Seeing this as an adventure of sorts has really helped him adjust. Even with that in mind, he missed the Crystarium and the others he's grown used to seeing all of the time. He had promised not to worry too much about them when Lyna and the others asked him not to and to live his life his way. While he was certain that they could handle themselves and take care of the First in his stead, it didn't stop him from feeling a little lonely.
So sometime late at night, dream lanterns might get to pick up on a bright locale. Surrounding the area are trees with purple flowers on them, giving the area a purple hue. In the distance, a tall tower in the distance. The Crystal Tower is hard to miss, piercing the heavens, but what is nearly impossible to miss is just how bright it was. The blinding light shows no sign of dissipating either as a hooded figure rushed in the scene.
Surrounding a young girl with white hair and bunny ears were particular looking enemies . Though the figure was able to dispatch them quickly before they attacked the small girl, the figure could not save what looked to be her parents. The hood made it hard to see their expression, but they knelt down to the girl slowly.
"My apologies for not arriving sooner. Thank goodness I was able to save you in time. Are you hurt?" a man's voice rang out. With the girl shaking her head quietly, he let out a sigh of relief. "Good. We must quit this place. It's not safe here," he said as he offered his hand to the small girl.
Fast forward back at the Crystarium, he was left with questions about what to do with her now. Surely she would be safe here, but he could hardly leave her to fend for herself. She seemed to have warmed up to him since then. He'd never looked after a child before, but it couldn't t be that hard, could it?
He did his best to watch over her, all while trying to fulfill his role as the Exarch. Every day there were plenty of problems to try to take care of. While preoccupied in his work, he hardly noticed Lyna enter his study with a bright smile.
"Excuse me, My Lord, I hope you don't mind. I was wanted to thank you for saving me somehow. I noticed you work a lot, so I thought that I could at least make you something to eat," she said. In her small hands was a basket of sandwiches. They were not the best-made sandwiches, but that didn't matter. She looked so proud of her work and put so much thought into this kind gesture.
He couldn't help but smile under his cowl. Setting down his quill, he accepted the basket from her. "Lyna... Thank you. That was sweet of you," setting the basket down on the table, he moved to pat the top of her head. He may have no experience in taking care of a child, but he was determined to do his best.
Time went by and by now Lyna had already grown older and joined the guard. All was quiet in the Ocular until the door slammed open, causing him to jump at the sudden noise as Lyna stormed in.
"You have been in here all day . Have you even eaten yet?" she asked him, clearly not pleased.
"Ah, Lyna... I'm fine. I'm not hungry right now. I'm on the verge of a--," he started, but was interrupted, "a breakthrough. Yeah, yeah. I know. You need to take better care of yourself. Please, take a break. Get some food."
"There is no need to worry. I'll be done soon enough," he tried to reassure her. "No, now. Before I have to drag you out," she insisted. Letting out a sigh, he rose from his chair to face her, "Very well... Shall we go then?"
From there the dream began to fade as he shifted from his slumber.

Maybe it's a difficult thing to do when you're thousands of years behind the curve.
