A/N: Yes I started another fic... hate me, I haven't done squat with WE. I have had nothing but lack of inspiration on that piece. In other words someone needs to smack me upside the head. So for the prologue I decided to give an overview of the plot. And for all curious, "Megami no Senshi" means "Soldiers of the Goddess". Please enjoy!

When the war of the Beasts brings about the World's End
The Goddess descends from the sky
Wings of light and dark spread afar
She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting
Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess
We seek it thus, and take to the sky
Ripples form on the water's surface
The wandering soul knows no rest.
There is no hate, only joy
For you are beloved by the goddess
Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds
Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul
Pride is lost
Wings stripped away, the end is nigh
My friend, do you fly away now?
To a world that abhors you and I?
All that awaits you is a somber morrow
No matter where the winds may blow
My friend, your desire
Is the bringer of life, the gift of the Goddess
Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return
My friend, the fates are cruel
There are no dreams, no honor remains
The arrow has left the bow of the Goddess
My soul, corrupted by vengeance
Hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey
In my own salvation
And your eternal slumber
Legend shall speak
Of sacrifice at World's End
The wind sails over the water's surface
Quietly, but surely
Even if the morrow is barren of promises
Nothing shall forestall my return
To become the dew that quenches the land
To spare the sands, the seas, the skies
I offer thee this silent sacrifice
-Loveless

A north zephyr brewed in the cold land of the Northern Crater, breaking shafts of ice inside of the massive ring of glacial mountains. The crackle of energy flowed from a set of dark shapes encased in the crystalline ice. The wind swept forth from the crater traveling over the lands and oceans, over the three continents, passing through the sleepy mountain village of Nibelheim, and through the desert and fields of Cosmo Canyon.

In the area of Nibelheim and Cosmo Canyon, nighttime was upon the land. One of the few to notice the unusually chill breeze stood up from amidst the tall grasses. Her two colored eyes fixated northwest. "(What's wrong?)" A large, burgundy lion asked, yellow eyes peering up curiously.
The one he addressed shook her head, "(this one is returning to the Canyon, a chill wind blows.)"
The lion bowed, "(understood.)"
She turned sprinting at full tilt towards the gorges of Cosmo Canyon.

Meanwhile, the other to take notice, sat hunched atop an old rundown mansion in Nibelheim. The moon and starlight reflected off of the metal gauntlet and boots. His scarlet cloak whipped around upon the zephyr's arrival. His crimson eyes darted away from the moon towards the direction of the current. He sprang off of the top of the building. He landed silently upon the lawn before disappearing spectrally into the darkness.
