Prologue

The wind was howling and a storm was brewing.

A darked and long hair lady could be seen speaking to a man in a Galbadian uniform in front of a stone orphanage.

"Please take care of my child…I've gotta go now!" the man said, his words spoken in a hurry.

"But Sir…your child…what about you wife?" the lady questioned.

"…She's…she's dead…I wasn't with her when she passed away last year…that is my only regret. Please help me take care of my child. I've got a war to fight and at least if I die, I'll die in peace knowing my child is in safe hands." He looked at his child who looked back at him with round innocent eyes, unaware of what's going on.

The man bent down and hugged his kid. "I'll always love you my baby…" he whispered.

He picked himself up and looked at the lady, "I begged of you once again to take good care of my child…I'll…I'll take my leave now..."

"Rest assure…your child is in good hands Sir."

"I'll be back if I do survive."

"I wish you the best of luck in your battle Mr…" The lady then remembered that she didn't even know his name!

"Caraway…Richard Caraway and my daughter's name is Rinoa."
