Chapter 1

"We were up in the sky, up in the clouds, in our home Guidance, the flying city where children ruled the skies. No it's just me and Harmony; I don't remember our mom and dad, that's because Harmony took care of me all these years. She never spoke about them. When I asked her, she turned and smiled to me that night while giving me a bath at the river of sorrow. All she gave me was a smile. I was only 7 at the time; my sister is now 12 which make me wonder— what happened to our home, family, and friends. Why aren't we up in the sky? And why don't we have our wings anymore?!" (I cried to my sister and fell to her arms sobbing, 'I'm SCARED!')
…..Harmony sang me her favorite melody— and that was that; I forgot what I was crying about.

Giver: What brings forth the Children of the Sky to my sacred holy grounds?
Phoenix: We seek answers, do you know why.
Phoenix: Why have we lost our wings? All that remains are scars
Giver: I myself do not know child, the answers that you seek are in the empire of Advent. That is all I know. I heard that the empire of Advent suffered a great war… did you know…?
Harmony: thank you Giver... We will check it out. (I hope Cident and Advent are ok…dear God)

We left sorrow's river and headed down the forest of lost children; none ever returned from there. While walking through the forest, we saw soldier everywhere we walked. A nightmare at best—we just kept walking and walking. The journey was long and tiring, we fought off raiders and demons; 5 months into the journey Phoenix fell ill as we approached Advent Empire.
