This my first White Knight Chronicles story. I intend for it to be a chapter story. How many chapters I'm not entirely sure yet. But somewhere between ten and twenty-five chapters, I think. It honestly depends on my inspiration, time, and creativity. I don't want to give you guys a dull story, after all.
So read and review.
Disclaimer:I don't own White Knight Chronicles nor White Knight Chronicles II. I own the idea of this story and my OCs only.
Once, a longeth timeth ago, centuries 'ere, thither wast two great empires: Yshrenia to the east, Athwan to the west.
Yshrenia was an empire of advanc'd machin'ry. Athwan was an empire of charm. 'twas haply unthinkable to us that these two great empires couldst ev'r liveth in peace…but they did. the two empires liv'd in peace with one anoth'r f'r many a year. With the establishment of tradeth, they prosp'r'd greatly. As a symbol of peace and friendship, Yshrenia built Athwan an airship. Athwan, in turneth, gave Yshrenia a small gift of charm. Small though 'twas, Yshrenia appreciat'd the gift nonetheless.
They liv'd in peace and prosp'rity. . . . until Mad'ras took the throne. From thither, ev'rything chang'd. Mad'ras began to invade oth'r lands, wanting to expandeth the Yshrehian Empire, built t'rrible machines of great destruction, and took advantage of the bawbling gift of charm that Athwan bestow'd upon the empire. 'Twas not longeth 'ere queen Mureas of Athwan stepp'd in and declar'd war on Yshrenia, out of the hopeth that her war declaration wouldst focus Yshrenia's attention on Athwan and not on the lands unable to defend themselves. Her war declaration w'rked: Yshrenia's focus was on Athwan.
F'r the first ten years of the war that wouldst lat'r be known as the Dogma Wars, it appear'd that the Athwani empire was winning. But. . . . then Yshrenia built t'rrible machines: Knights that wast inhumanely tall. Soon, the tide of war turn'd in Yshrenia's fav'r. Thither wast five in total: Wizel, the white knight, Luthia, the Moon Maiden, Larvayne, the Dragon Knight, Dinivas, the Black Knight, and Adolmaea, the Sun King.
These "knights", call'd Inc'rrupti (singular: Inc'rruptus), wast able to cuteth down ten to twenty people with just one bloweth and it wasn't longeth 'ere Athwani soldi'rs wast running f'r their lives. Despite their t'rrible destructive capablities, the "knights" wast not able to moveth on their owneth: they requir'd human souls to moveth. The Yshrenian Empire couldst not useth adult souls. The "knights" wouldst be c'rrupt'd. They discov'r'd souls of newb'rn infants couldst controleth the "knights" without c'rrupting them.
Yea though the "knights" gave Yshrenia the upp'r handeth, Queen Mureas refus'd to giveth up, yea when the death toll reach'd o'er thirty thousand. But the citizens of Athwan wast giving into feelings of despair and hopelessness and the m'rale of the soldi'rs was low. They had gotten sick of the war and want'd it to endeth. The people wast hungry, food was scarce, money was decreasing, and the civilians wast growing increasingly enchafed. All this ledeth to a rebellion and Athwan was wound'd from within. Civil war finally broke out and the queen was kill'd. At the same timeth, Emp'r'r Mad'rs of Yshrenia disappear'd. People assum'd that he was kill'd as well. That mark'd the endeth of the Dogma Wars.

A/N: This was originally written in our modern English, but I used a Shakespearean modern English conversion site to translate the prologue into what you just read. It may not be a hundred percent correct, but I did my best with what I had to work with.
