Prologue

The world is on the verge of collapse. The two nations of Sylvarant and Tethe'alla are about to embark on another world war. After the great Kharlan war 4,000 years ago, The Hero Mithos and the Goddess Martel were sacrificed in order to unsure peace between the two war hungry nations. Peace was achieved and mana was restored but the relationships between all were unsteady. After the deaths of the Hero and the Goddess The Summon Spirits that had accompanied them returned to their temples now serving as a link between the nations to store and distribute Mana.

The Ninja Clan and the Pirate Clan have always been rocky and the rivalry is deeply rooted with hatred for one another. No one knows why but it has been said that the pirate king and ninja warlord from long ago once had a duel in which neither won or lost. Both being prideful clans they always are now always competing with each other trying to prove who is the best clan.

Now with the coming of war and need for both soldiers and warriors as well as traders and spies. The two clans have been recruited. The Pirates have sided with Sylvarant, And the Ninjas with Tethe'alla.

As war grows nearer everyday, Even more tense the growing threat of war is the Half-Elf organization the Desians who threaten the people of the nations with human ranches. Cultivating and breeding humans for needs unknown. They are the creator of Exspheres.

The god known as Aurion now looks down upon the World of Symphonia bowing his head. He who was once a companion of the Hero Mithos has taken up the mantle as the Guardian of the Mana protecting it from exhausting it and letting die out. But with the growth of Magitechnology and the threat of the new world war. The God known as Aurion fears that this will be the end.

Though he knows he cannot become directly involved and restore it himself without the world knowing it was him, It would disrupt the peace with the church and the nations of his existence. His hopes now lie with a young Pirate warrior and a young Ninja warrior who he appointed himself to achieve peace by looking past the hatred and discrimination in the hearts of Man and Elf and all those inbetween alike and make a better world together.

This is his plan and it is being set in motion as Aurion looks down on a lone pirate ship traveling down a sea route. The Pieces are now in place and the fate of the world will be decided.
