The Seeds of Change- FFV novelisation
FFV doesn't seem to get a lot of love in the fanfic community. Its not the most well known of the 2d FF's. So here goes a novelisation with a little prologue for you.
Disclaimer: I do not own Final Fantasy V. It's characters, locations or plot devices.

Diary of Professor Cid. October thirteenth, 1982
This is a most curious discovery, throughout my research on the magical crystals that give us the four elements it seems that they are not at full power. I have been studying the fire crystal at Karnak for some time now and even though it can hold the castle together and grant fire to the world class black-smiths in the town, it can potentially do much more.
Even modern legends of less than 100 years ago show that they were much more powerful, official research has only started recently and there is a large chance of over exaggeration on the tome's part. There is a startling difference of power.
I myself have personally witness a slight drop in power from the fire crystal not 20 years past, what is curious is that the crystals don't appear to have degraded at all.
Maybe a machine can be built, one that can restore them to their original strength. Think how that could change peoples lives. Fire when you want it with little to no effort to control. The purification of water through the crystal in Waltz could be used to repel monsters. Not to mention the advancement of ship speeds in the wind crystal near Tycoon can be manipulated.
This may take a while but with support from the monarchies this project of mine will revolutionise our way of life, for the better of course.
Also, I have to help Mid with his mathematics homework, he seems to be struggling a bit with the more complex algebra and calculus.

Entry, march twenty sixth, 1989
Its done! The fire crystal amplifier is up and running and what a difference it makes. Tools, weapons and chemicals are easily produced. Its remarkable how we ever managed to live without that machine in place. Maybe I can use it to power a new, high velocity ocean-going vessel. But first the amplification machines for Waltz and tycoon must be set up. I have made some improvements to the original machine design for it to be less noticeable and bulky. Those giant pipes in the Fire crystal room are a safety hazard.
