Lucina ran through the capital city of Ylisstol, or it's ruins at least. She panted as she stopped to look up at the red sky and check if she was still being chased by the Risen troops she had stumbled upon.
"Hey Lucy!" A familiar voice shouted.
Lucine looked up to see her friend, Cynthia on her pegasus. She swooped down and landed next to the blue haired girl. "Climb on."
Without hesitating, Lucina climbed onto the back of the pegasus and Cynthia flew off.
"Have you seen the others?" Lucina asked.
"I saw Gerome, he said he was headed to the ritual too. Or at least he nodded when I asked him if he was..." Cynthia replied.
"Hopefully everyone will make it..." Lucina trailed off.
Cynthia flew off into a dark cave, a feint blue light shone from the inside.
Inside the large, dimly-lit cave stood ten others.
"Sheesh, could you have been any slower?" A white haired girl with long pigtails sneered.
"Are you two prepared?" A brown haired boy with glasses asked.
"Yep!" Cynthia exclaimed.
"The future shall be changed as the Chosen One, Owain, uses the legendary sword Mystletainn to slay the fell dragon!" A blonde boy exclaimed, striking a pose.
"I wonder how beautiful the girls of the past are." A brown haired boy smirked.
"I-I won't be the last anymore! B-but what if I go extinct!?" A brown haired boy with light tan rabbit ears panicked.
"Calm down, Yarne, we'll be fine." A short, brown haired girl with pointed ears told him.
"You can be among others, Minerva." A blue haired boy told his wyvern as he stroked her snout lightly.
"I guess I'll see Ma again." A brown haired boy with a scar on his face said.
"Seeing our parents again will be nice." A brown haired girl in heavy armor pointed out.
"I can't wait to see mom!" Cynthia exclaimed.
"I hope my mom doesn't curse me again..." A shy, blonde girl said before taking out a talisman. "SHE'LL NEVER CURSES SOMEONE LIKE ME! I AM BLOOD AND FURY!"
"Let's get going then." Lucina said. "We'll change out fates! Hope will not die!"
And with that small speech, everyone broke into a cheer.
