What a graceful and deep reading, giving our silent Guardian a voice. Kimahri's a great character, overlooked by many, and you do him justice. I love the way you have him say "he" or "she" about each of the places he reacts to as presence as much as place. His readings of the soul of each region fit very well.
I had a tiny bit of trouble telling whether this was his first journey from Gagazet to Besaid, or the pilgrimage, or returning home after the pilgrimage, until the end. I guess I should've clued in from where you started, though.
The exact definition of his relation to Yuna is also perfect. He was her guardian even before he was a Guardian. :)
Funny, I'm taking a course on Psyche and Nature this quarter, just finished reading Jung's The Earth Has a Soul. Everyone keeps talking as if this attitude is strange and foreign and we clever humans only just rediscovered it. You illustrated it without a lot of talk. Which, of course, is the point.
