Remind him not to retire to that city, even if he wanted an excuse to become a full time pilot for the Ragnarok or any new models, because clearly the people there are a bit beyond merely mental.

Why exactly did Selphie look up to this guy? Give Nida someone rational like Kiros or Ward any day when dealing with the older generation.
