Fate: The Last Mage

by WolfieRed23

Fate is such a delicate thing...Rosalia Propheta knows that better than anyone. Having been born as the protector of the world, the Mage, and now branded as a l'Cie, she follows her best friend Hope along with some new friends on the most wild adventures she's ever been on and she starts to think...maybe fate isn't always set in stone.

10. IMPORTANT AN, PLEASE READ, DO NOT SKIP

Okay, first off, this AN exists only because I forgot to put this note in the previous chapter.

Second, EVERY READER MUST READ THIS IT IS TOO IMPORTANT TO SKIP BECAUSE YOU ARE IN FOR A RUDE AWAKENING IF YOU DON'T REGARDING PAIRINGS.

Okay, now that that's out of the way, here's what you guys need to know: due to the fact that Rosalia changes aspects of the game and I want to kind of challenge myself by writing something completely non-canon, there are at least two sub-pairings in this story that may get me flames so I am letting ALL OF YOU know now what they are so I can avoid all of that and stop wasting some readers' time.

THIS STORY'S SUB-PAIRINGS ARE NOEL/SERAH AND SNOW/LIGHTNING. I REPEAT, THIS STORY'S SUB-PAIRINGS ARE NOEL/SERAH AND SNOW/LIGHTNING.

For those of you who don't like those pairings, I apologize, but please either stop reading now or stop when we reach the end of FFXIII.

HOWEVER, YOU ALL SHOULD KNOW THAT THESE SUB-PAIRINGS WILL NOT BE THE MAIN FOCUS. THEY WILL HAVE SCENES WHERE I BRING UP THEIR RELATIONSHIP OR HIGHLIGHT IT OR HAVE ROSALIA MENTION NOTICE SOMETHING ABOUT IT. THAT IS ALL IT WILL BE BECAUSE THIS STORY IS, FIRST AND FOREMOST, ROSALIA'S STORY AND THAT STORY IS INTERTWINED WITH HOPE'S SO THAT PAIRING, BEING THE MAIN ONE, WILL GET THE BIGGEST SPOTLIGHT. BUT THROUGHOUT FFXIII-2 AND LR THERE WILL BE MENTIONS AND REFERENCES TO NOEL/SERAH AND SNOW/LIGHTNING. THIS STORY'S EPILOGUE WILL FEATURE THOSE PAIRINGS IN SCENES AND MENTIONS AS WELL.

I'm sorry if this turns you away from my story but I do understand. However, if you don't care if I change the canon that much, even if your pairing is no longer a main one, I welcome you. It is your guys' choice in the end but I wanted to let all of you know so I can avoid any anger and you guys can avoid any disappointment.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy the rest of the story.
