Prologue: War Story
XxXxXxXxX
Since Reffira became its own island, there were problems.
Of course, as with all new islands, there would be. However, these problems became... constant. With each passing year, the islanders were more and more convinced that civil war was going to break out.
Until finally, one day, it did.
Rebels, displeased with the way the current state of affairs were, attacked the island's weakpoints, most notable its main city. The leader, having foretold the disruption, begged the other island leaders for help, but found peace with only one. They and what remained of their family managed to escape in the night, plotting and planning their return.
Reffira's civil war lasted eight years. Many lives were lost in that time, most of them innocent.
On the island resides a vast forest. It is said that one of the biggest instigators of the civil war was the murder of a child of one of the more well-off families, killed in cold blood in the forest's clearing. To this day, many people believe the forest is haunted by the child who perished there many years ago.
If you go into the forest, be wary: the child decides who leaves and who doesn't.
