You are in a dark place. All you can here is ticking for a long, long while.

Then a bright light, a pure white crystal, taller than the dorms itself, appears in front of you. It's voice echoes in your mind.

Hear.... Feel... Think...
A Light there once was that shone throughout this realm... yet it has since grown dim
And as it has faltered so has the Darkness risen up in its stead, presaging an end to life.
For the sake of us all, I beseech thee deliver us from this fate.
If thou would pierce the shadows... make thee a blade of light.
Hold onto it, child.
Return His Dark servants to your realm.
But beware, ever is He trying to grow his power. Do not get caught.

And the light vanishes you find yourself with a crystal in your hand.

Though you are again left in in Darkness before you find yourself in a vast city standing in front of a large teleportation device.

Objectives (if your character can translate Hydaelyn vagueness):
1) Convince both Ascians to leave
2) Don't get tempered :) (or killed if you don't like mind control)

Additionally you may choose EITHER canon or OR imeeji powers to be active. You can wait to decide until you use a power, but once you use a power that powerset is locked in as your choice.

Also if people are in the same area as you feel free to mingle. It is in fact encouraged. Also your phones work only to text and take pictures (basically for the purpose of communicating in case you are in different spots).

We have not, but you exist outside of time like the others, are you not?

Do you know about the End of Days?

What they're trying to prevent, you mean...?

I don't think I ever heard the specifics. Only that something terrible would—and did happen, if it was not stopped.

Of the calamity that looms over us after "today". It began from the earth, and would eventually grow to encompass the entire planet, spelling out true ruin. The Council of Fourteen… well, I suppose they were only Thirteen by then, decided to bring into existence the "Will of the Planet", and by doing so suppress the calamity. But such a massive act of creation required an equally large amount of aether... And so half of the survivors gave up their lives to serve as the source of the aether. And thus was Zodiark born according to their plan, and the calamity dealt with.

But it came with a cost. Do you know what Tempering is?

.......no.

When a Primal is created, their energy flows back to the summoner. And ever are their energies aligned. Their will as well.

...their "will" aligned...?

They created this being, though, so wouldn't that make sense that they'd have the same goals?

Forcibly. Ever will they be servants of Zodiark.

[ INTERNALLY SCREAMING ]

......I see.

And the Council... will be tempered, then. Or they are. Have been.

They already are. With Elidibus as His heart.

...I see.

[ she doesn't like that!!!!!! ]

Where do you fit in all these great events, friend?

I am but a shade, of no real substance. My name is Hythlodaeus… or so I can recall. This is but an illusion, a snapshot of the past of this city. It would seem as though the other shades are not aware of it...
Most likely, Emet-Selch allowed a few stray thoughts to distract him while he was recreating me.

...another friend of his?

I consider him a good and precious friend—as I truthfully said to Elidibus. Enough to tease him, sometimes, but also—I'd like to be able to help him as he's helped those around him, in his afterlife.

What does he need, do you think?

You wish to convince him? He's stubborn. If you've been around him you know this. Perhaps together we could be of use.

Lahabrea is the more difficult of the two.

Oh, boy is he ever.

I'm pretty persuasive, though, if you'd take my word for it.

I did see your way with the clerk at the front desk.

Did you have any other questions?

[ hey quick break to have a real-ass moment here— ]

I would be tempted to ask if that happens a lot, here, but my educated guess is that the answer is yes and that that's the cause of the End of Days.

If I'm looking for Emecchi, where would he be?

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

He would be at the Capitol.

Good to know.

[ she raises her hands, and turns once in a circle, before continuing on. ]

Farewell, then.

[ but she's going to the Akademia first. ]

To the Akadaemia Anyder.
