One of my identities is that of an eidolon, a summoned being that can be bound to a summoner. The first time I learned about eidolons was in Final Fantasy IX. I first played it when it came out in 2000 when I was 11 and it has been my favorite game ever since. The game starts with Dagger's 16th birthday, and when I was young I saw her as a big sister. Soon, I passed that age, and now at 35 my feelings about her have changed and grown. It is strange how I grow older while she remains the same in my eyes. As the years went by, I felt more and more like an eidolon and I consider being Dagger's eidolon specifically, a paratype of mine. I feel very close to her, and protective of her. I have always self inserted myself into Final Fantasy IX's story and it didn't take long for me to put myself as her main eidolon. A companion in animal form, and then a majestic version as my true form as an eidolon, with holy (light) as my attack element.
My relationship with her has changed a lot since first meeting her. My place in FFIX has changed. As I grow older, I expect to feel more and more like a wiser ancient being, to guide Dagger through her hardships where she once guided, and was an example for, me.

I listen to FFIX music every day, and think about her and all my friends from Gaia with a smile. Their Gaia is my hearthome, a place I long for and am always happy to visit.
