Prologue
They say that history has this irritating habit of repeating itself, triggered by some strange paradox or another, but most of the time it has its roots in the word 'consequence'. Everything that we see, hear and do is of course, a mere consequence of something. The present is the consequence of the past and the future, an imminent corollary of the present. One can probably define any instant of time as an outcome of another. And yet, in this long and seemingly infinite chain of consequences, fate still knew where to show it's sadistic, twisted will. It still controlled everything despite all that traversed through the sands of time. Destiny isn't always kind but it knew when to be despicably evil and when to play God. And it was this double-sided face of destiny, that balanced the good and the evil, the light and the dark, the rich and the poor, and wise and the foolish. To strike this equilibrium, fate would even stretch far across infinity to bring the good to balance the evil or the evil to balance the good.
The eyes of fate fell on the mako world... the dimension of the life stream... there was no true good or evil... there was no true peace or war... there was no proportion... and it's situations like these where they say, like one big hobby, destiny brought upon the world, both evil and good....
But what if.... even in the infinite grasp of destiny, there was no evil to be brought into being? Where would destiny go when there was no evil to be found, at any end of the universe? It would search the tides of time, and regenerate an evil once slewed by good... it would breathe new life into it.... And then... what if there was no good to be found? To face this evil.... What then? Once again, it would reach across dimensions... across worlds, to fetch the force to balance the evil it brought on its own...
And it were the souls that were chosen for this cruel game of destiny, both evil and good, who were named as the 'Children of Fate...'
They were scattered across dimensions, across worlds and across time... but they say that when it was time for Destiny to fulfill its purpose, the Children of Fate will be brought together...
... At the Crossroads of Destiny.....
