Prologue
"What's that mother?" A girl asked, indicating towards a crystalline ball her mother held. The girl had crystalline glacier blue hair that came down past her shoulders that had two small pigtails popping out and coming down just to her ears. Her eyes were a golden yellow that shone with curiosity and innocence.
The woman, the girls' mother, gave a small laugh and patted the seat next to her, indicating for her daughter to sit. She had hair just like her daughters, except it was down, and her eyes were a soft red-orange color.
"It's a crystal ball, Kanna." She said, placing her hand delicately on the ball. "It allows me to see what's going on down with the people on the ground." The girl, Kanna, gave a small 'oh' and watched the ball intently as her mother took her hand off the ball and a picture swirled into view on the screen.
It was of a boy with flaming red hair and emerald green eyes. He was with a group of people in a factory of sorts.
"What is that mother?" Kanna questioned her mother. "That doesn't look like anything we have here."
"Kanna, shush," Her mother shushed her gently. "Watch." Kanna nodded and resumed looking at the ball.
The group of people were fighting something now. It was a huge spider, and to Kanna, it looked a bit scary. And strong. Very strong.
"You should pay better attention Natalia." A soldier like man was scolding a blonde girl. Was she the cause of the spider's attack?
Before Kanna could see anything else, the picture vanished. She looked up at her mother curiously.
"That's enough for now, Kanna." She told her daughter. "I have a meeting with the council that I have to go to. Run along and go play with your friends." Kanna nodded and left the room.
Her mother placed the ball on the end table and stood up, staring at the doorway that her daughter had just left through.
'Kanna,' She thought to herself sadly, tucking a blue strand of hair behind her ear. 'Please, forgive me. Please forgive me for what I have to do."

"Yes, I am sure." She said, staring at the council.
"Elizabeth," One of them said. "This is your daughter we're talking about. We shall ask you once again: Are you sure she should go?" Elizabeth sighed.
"Frank," Elizabeth was struggling not to lose her temper. "She'll have to go sometime. We all know she's the only one who can stop him."
"Does she know about what she has to do?' At this, Elizabeth froze up. Then, she recovered.
"No," She replied slowly, shaking her head. "I thought it best that she not know."
"You do realize what danger you're putting your own child in?" Frank demanded. Elizabeth nodded.
"I have it planned." Elizabeth replied evenly. "She would've accepted the task anyway! That's all she ever does anymore! She listens to what we say and doesn't even try to say no! I want her to have a chance to see how to act normally again. The only way to do that is to give her the task." The council members exchanged looks then sighed.
They had no choice.
"Then it's decided," Frank announced. "Kanna is being sent down to Auldrant to stop this scheme." Elizabeth smiled sadly.
'Now is your time to shine my daughter.' She thought to herself sadly. 'Now is your time to show the council what you're made of. Make me proud.'

"Kanna? What are you doing way out here?" A boy with messy black hair and dark forest green eyes asked the girl. Kanna jumped and looked up to where the boy was on the slab above her.
"Oh," She said softly. "I was just thinking Jeremy. Mother told me to go play with my friends, but I couldn't find you or Melody." The boy, Jeremy, sighed.
"Why are you always out here?" Jeremy asked Kanna. "I mean, it's not like it's any of my business, it's just that you're always out here and you're my friend." Kanna gave a faint smile.
"I understand Jeremy." Kanna replied softly. She pulled herself onto the wall completely and turned around, swinging her legs over the wall. "I better go, Jeremy. Mother should be back from her meeting by now." And Kanna jumped off the wall and disappeared out of sight. Jeremy sighed.
"Kanna," He sighed. "What is wrong with you?" And he disappeared as well.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Do you understand your task?" A man with fiery red hair and yellow-red eyes asked a girl.
"Of course Daddy." The girl responded, an evil smirk on her face. She had fiery red hair as well, and it came to her shoulders and she had a small ponytail in the middle of the back of her hair, and it came down to the top of the back of her neck. Her eyes were a bright orange that were alight with mischief and evil.
"Good Jamie." Her father smirked. "Now go." The girl, Jamie, nodded.
"On my way Daddy." Jamie smirked, and left the room. Her father smirked.
"The pieces are all falling into place," He smirked to himself.

"Mother?" Kanna called into the room her mother had been in when she left. She was normally in this room when she came home from council meetings, so where was she now? Maybe Kanna was wrong and her mother wasn't home yet.
"Kanna, is that you?" Elizabeth called, and Kanna seemed to brighten a little.
"You're home mother," Kanna smiled a little.
"Can you come here Kanna?" Elizabeth asked her daughter, and unseeing to her, her daughter nodded and started to where her mother's voice was coming from.
"Yes mother," Kanna replied, and entered the room where her mother was. The last thing she saw before everything went black was her mother's face, smiling a sad smile.

"Your name is Kanna. Your task is simple. You must watch over a boy named Luke fon Fabre. Stay with him no matter what. You have to control what he does. You must not let him do anything reckless that can affect Auldrant. You must stay with him until he finishes his journey. You will receive more instructions later on as his journey progresses. That is all."
