The Barrier: Prologue


Hate. It was an emotion Jill had virtually grown up with. "Beware of the sub-humans, for they are pure evil" they said, and Jill believed. Whenever they were mentioned, all she could think about was how awful they were. It was a hate dominated her life like a horribly addicting drug. However, quite recently something had happened that could only be described as miraculous. While on another one of her "glory missions" for her father, she caught up with a ship carrying the fugitive princess of Crimea, a land she had a hand in conquering.

To make a long story short, she ended up aiding the vessel from a unit of Kilvan pirates (she "couldn't let the sub-humans do as they please") and accompanying them to Begnion. Along the way, she begrudgingly helped them fight off another pirate attack, and that was where she first noticed a cat Laguz named Lethe. This particular laguz bared very deep grudges against the beorc, but has forced to accompany these humans on orders from her king; orders she had always unquestioningly obeyed. "Why would one of the evil ones aid Humans?" Jill thought. Since she had never actually seen a laguz in her lifetime, she decided to stick around a while longer see if all she had learned was true. Lethe was also curious. "Why would a soldier of the hated Daein empire fight for us?" she thought; "I was under the impression they hated laguz above all else."

Lethe, beast warrior of Gallia; and Jill, wyvern rider of Daein. Two complete opposites who had found themselves fighting on the same side. What would become of the two of them? How would their deep set opinions be affected by this alliance? Only time could tell, and their journey would be a long one, so that would not be a problem at all.
