A young woman held a crying child in her arms trying to calm her. "There is no other way?!" the woman cried helplessly. "The child must fulfill her destiny, you know that. The prophecy states this: Darkness falls but do not fear. The gods have set a plan in gear. Deities of ocean, sky, moon and death have chosen a guard to end darkness's breath. Time has chosen a special one to carry the key and render darkness gone. There is no other way, Marin. I'm sorry." said the child's father. "But why Setsuna?! She's so young!" cried the woman. "We can't stop fate!" yelled the child's father. The child calmed down suddenly. "She's not afraid." said the woman.
