Perspective I: Espers

Over the course of several years, life had appeared somewhat settled in the world of balance. It was hard to believe that the planet once suffered an atrocious calamity which ripped the planets face of beauty and balance causing it to rot with impurity and ruin.

It was mid-autumn, and the weather was turning colder and more miserable. After the calamity, the few remaining espers thrived in a secerative cavern embedded in the planet. How exactly, they survived still remains a mystery after the illeged ruination of magic from the world.

"Dear friends," Bahamut Zero called down to his followers atop a craggy cliff face. The mint glow of the crystals hanging on the walls highlighted his shiny silver armour "I have an announcement as of today,"

The espers began bickering between each other. Several of the espers included Shiva, Ifrit, Unicorn and another strange dragon-like esper along with many others. "Today, after many years of hiding I will leave this cavern. It has been too long that we have hidden away ourselves from the prying eyes of the humans and I wish to begin by seeking a truce,"Shiva was the most questioning and honest of the lot. If there was something that she felt went against her morales she was well known for speaking out for herself and the other espers, which were far more timid and easily dragon-like esper yawned at Bahamut Zero's plight.

"Zanpaktezar. I see you disapprove?"

"I do. Who do you think caused us to near the verge of extinction in the first place?" Zanpaktezar continued "As one of the great dragon espers yourself Bahamut Zero you should

know this. The others have be rebelling against their actions for a long time and you offer the bloodied hand a truce!" He snapped and growled in aggression. "And what of the human

that rotted this world to ruin? And the others that enslaved

the espers into their command!"

The room became quiet. Ifrit belched fire onto the ground in rejection. "WASN'T IT THE HUMANS THAT SAVED US?" Ifrit had a habit of shouting every word he spoke, but the espers were used to his loud and reckless voice.

"Zanpaktezar. Learn your manners." Bahamut Zero scolded. "I have faith in the humans. Tommorrow I shall show you all that they are docile creatures."

Bahamut Zero smiled; it seemed more like a sly grin due to his fearsome appearance but the other espers heralded his announcement. Zanpaktezar, strangely, also smiled. "And with that, I can finally put the crests to use,"
