A/N: thanks 4 the reviews… this is a short chappie but I thought I wouldn't have the same effect if I carried it on, from where I decided to leave it.
Chapter 1 All is well.
Slight history.
The war was over. Five months of fighting, the destruction of Fanelia, the Capital of Freid (Gosasim), parts of Asturia (Lanpart). Losses on all sides including men from Chesario a small nation and the country Deidlas.
People begin to get their lives back on track including Van Fanel the King of Fanelia - the worst country to suffer. The capital of Fanelia was completely destroyed, and had great losses, its people homeless living in the nearby town of Urthas and Adom. Van - one of the worst people to suffer, his life coming close to death, his mind close to insanity, his brothers death - all elements take their toll on a person's spirit. But his spirit was saved by the love of another, the strongest of human emotions yet for some completely unnecessary. For some, love brings death; thankfully for the pilot of the famous Ispano Guymelef, Escaflowne, love brought life.
Asturia now the most powerful nation on Gaea since the collapse of the Zaibach Empire, works on repairing the broken nations although the death of it King, King Aston came as a large blow to the country its Princess, Princess Millerna handles things well. The kings' death was of no surprise as he had been ill for some time, but things move on, nothing can stop or else more people will lose their lives.
Plans for the rebuilding of the capital of Fanelia are being made with the help of Austria. People are moving back to the ruined city, living in tents and helping rebuild their own homes, Folken had been laid to rest at the family grave and Escaflowne decommissioned (the energist taken out). All is well.
Fanelia.
Van, Hitomi, Allen and Merle walk the streets of Fanelia helping out at times and overlooking how things are going.
"Fanelia is doing so well Van, I'm sure it will be back to its old self soon." Hitomi walked by Vans side holding his hand, many people would stop and stare, it was clear what was going through their minds.
Merle, although told to stay close by had run off after spotting the woman that had dragged her way when Zaibach had attacked. She thought she should go see her after running away to find Van.
Allen walked behind Van and Hitomi, catching many peoples attention for he was dressed in his Knight Caeli uniform. He stopped when he came across a young looking woman in a dark blue dress carrying a large tattered bag which looked like it would split any second. He was not sure why this young woman caught his attention, she was indeed beautiful but there was something else about her. Allen was caught off guard when he realized she was looking straight at him. The woman smiled and walked towards him.
"You're a Knight Caeli, correct?"
Allen took in the woman's features, she had short black hair tied in a bun and the darkest of eyes, she wore a tight fitting blue dress most unsuitable; for it showed her cleavage and had a large split in the side that reached her waist and showed her black high-heeled ankle boots and a holder for a dagger. The young woman wore a plain black cloak and a pendent around her neck which looked like it had been broken for a part was missing as Allen assumed it was meant to be circular. One thing he saw which seemed odd was that her hands were bandaged.
