Hello and welcome to the Prologue.

Note and disclaimer: "Final Fantasy, Zenosaga, Chrono Trigger/Cross, Secret of Mana" are all properties of Squaresoft. Evangelion belongs to Gainax. All the rest, well... to their respective owners... I'm sorry, but it can get crazy at times I tend to lose track of who is popping in and out...
This Prologue is dedicated to the memory of the September 11th tragedy. Long Live Freedom. Long Live America.
I hope you enjoy this, the first story.

The World Is Square

The southwest tower was still standing... reinforced due to the fact that it stood over the barracks and armory... held in place by the west and south walls that appears now to have been erected for the sole purpose of holding this weakened tower in place. The knights and squires inside were scrambling, grabbing what little equipment they could before the fires spread into the barracks. Most of the force went to the aid of the townspeople, also hit in the blast. The rest, to the aid of their king, who lies under what was the center structure of the castle. In the distant skies, small pops of white and yellow light flicker under a thinly crescent moon, crackling like fireworks, though not for any celebration. This night was supposed to end the fear, it was a night to strike back at the evils of the world.

Two men clad in Sapphire Blue armor stare at the horizon, with looks of awe upon their faces.
"We cannot even see our enemy, yet he can hit us-hard as any dragon, hard as any army."
"Yes, but his action... it was provoked. We sent the Squadron to attack him, we knew this could happen."
"We needed to do something, if not for us, then for Alexandria..."
The knight looked back at the city, burning in one huge fire, then at his comrade.
"Gather the survivors at King's pass, we will take them to Onrac at dawn."
As he turns to leave, he glances at his friend, who shook his head in disbelief...
"It only took one blast... one blast from that madman to take us down."
"Come Cecil, we have work to do. Baron might be gone, but our people will live on."
