Story based on the video games, Final Fantasy IV and VI.
Chapter One: The End of Magic
Relm walked down the stairs of her house in Thamasa. It was to be the last time she was to ever walk down those stairs again. She's leaving to head up to Narshe to live with Terra. It had been a while since Relm had seen Terra. Haven't seen her since they destroyed Kefka. Terra was dying and Relm felt that she should help her while she lived.
After they killed Kefka, Terra returned to Narshe to start her research on Espers, for she is part Esper and part Human. While Terra stood to be the last Esper, she also stood to be the last of Magic anywhere. Relm was the latest generation of the Mages of the town of Thamasa, and Magic was dying out quickly there.
Relm was heart-broken that she was leaving the old house. Her grandfather, Strago, lived here when he was a child. It was just recently when Strago passed away, leaving Relm here all by herself. Or so she thought. Relm started to walk though the doorway but turned around for one last look. She started to cry.
"Woof." Intercepter barked.
"Hush, Intercepter." Relm wiped the tears from her eyes. "I'll miss this place. And Strago, too."
Relm grabbed her bags and left the house. Intercepter followed. Intercepter was left to her along with the sword "Striker" by a man that called himself Shadow. Shadow was always nice to her ever since he saved her in a burning house years ago before the "End of the World." Relm always felt there was a connection to Shadow ever since she met him 6 years ago.

Clyde walked up the stairs to Cyan's room in the castle. Doma Castle. Clyde was going to see an old buddy even though he might not remember him in the form he's in now. He got to the door to Cyan's room and knocked.
"Who is it?" came Cyan's voice from inside.
"...My name's Clyde. I have business with you." Clyde said.
The door opened. "How did you get past my guards?" Cyan asked.
"I.."
"Waitaminit. Don't I know you?" asked Cyan.
"Yes. I helped you to defeat Kefka. I am....I am...Shadow. Or I was."
"SHADOW?!? You've changed!!! Who do you go by again?"
"Clyde Phoenix. I have gone back to my old self. Everyone on the team showed me the reason I should."
"Shadow,...I mean Clyde, come in."

Terra could barely move but she could not give up on her research. If she did, no one will ever figure out the secrets of the Espers. And if Terra wanted to live, she would have to find some Espers and use their power to live longer.
Terra got out of bed, slowly, and walked over to the kettle and poured her some tea. It tasted good as the warm tea slid down her hurting throat. Suddenly...
"TERRA!" a man walked into the house.
"Sabin?" Terra said. "Is that you?"
"Yep. It's me!" Sabin said. "So how are you doing? Heard about your condition."
"I'm fine. It's just that my body aches all over and I can barely move. Otherwise, I'm fine." Terra said.
"Yeah, I bet." Sabin laughed. "Well, since my brother can watch over the kingdom on his own, I decided to come up here and help you out."
"That was unnecessary. Relm is coming up here to help me in my research." Terra responded.
"Relm? And Strago?" asked Sabin.
"Strago passed away a year ago."
"Oh...I didn't know. How old was he?"
"I don't know. I think 70 something."
"And how old is Relm?"
"19."
