Welcome to your journey, - You fight one in the beginning
I'm here to welcome you. - He welcomes you to the battle system
Do you remember me? - He's been in previous FFs
No, i've only been in a few. - But only three, FFIV?, FFX, and FFXII
A few of me too. - In FFIV? it appears as multiple little fish that drain MP
Could've been seen by you. - You might've seen, you might not
A few licks from you. - Licks, as in hits/attacks
And my being will hath farther flew. - He'll fly away once you defeat him

Your turn!
