[A lanky redheaded man in a long black coat waves at the screen, apparently already comfortable with how it works. A komory bat is fluttering around above his head.]

Didn’t think I’d see this place again. Hey, everyone, my name is Lea. [He grins.] Don’t forget it, now.

I don’t know how I ended up here again, but does anyone know what’s going on? The moogle said you guys had been trying to work out what was up but that it didn’t seem like anyone had figured out how to get home. Since this isn’t the exam, I don’t think anyone’s going to try to wake me up any time soon.

I guess he doesn't look too old. Old enough to be a grampa, though.

[dork_of_keys]

Yeah, I guess. Late forties or early fifties, maybe? He's in good shape, though and Ven says he's powerful.

[eternalfrolicbond]

I was thinking sixties, but young sixties. I could see fifties, though. He looks older than Ansem the Wise.

[Clearly you should always judge "old" by someone who you considered old when you were fifteen.]

[dork_of_keys]

I thought Ansem looked older, but... well, when was the last time you saw him?

I've heard some active older people insist that being active is what keeps them in good shape.

[Sora has kind of figured Lea's going on a potentially outdated view of the man.]

[eternalfrolicbond]

Yeah, you've got a point. Split the difference and say fifties, then.

If he's a keyblade Master he'd have to be active.
