It has been twenty long and sorrowful years since the old king died. Since then, famine and war has crossed these fair lands, and the people, who were once strong and healthy, are now poor and sickly.

Jista was once a beautiful, and everything was healthy, but now, King Phillip, has let it all go to ruins. He cares nothing about the people, only the money he makes from the heavy taxes. People don't have the money to feed themselves let alone pay for the king's food as well.

I have tried myself to improve the people's lives but the king is always watching us and we cannot do anything without his knowledge and so I had to stop.

Oh, we have tried to kill him and take over the kingdom, but he has everyone terrified. The punishment is life torture if you are found out and since the king has spies everywhere, it is most likely you will.

Yet, for all the pain and suffering the people have witnessed, there is still hope, for there is one thing the king fears…The Shinrah.
