Welcome, soul, to my first-ever fanfic. Within, you will find the kind of high-quality writing that is rare on this website, which is my excuse for probably not being able to post very often. As the author of a Soul Calibur fic, this story will understandably and unquestionably have VIOLENCE. Not often blood-and-gore violence, seeing as how so few characters actually die in these games, but there will be VIOLENCE. There will also be questionable LANGUAGE used at times, often in conjunction with the VIOLENCE, as some people cry out when they are harmed. There may also be SEXUAL THEMES, which include descriptions of nudity and sexual feelings that parents don't want their kids to see. For really persnickety people, there will definitely be DRAMATIC THEMES and DISTURBING IMAGES, though there are no actual pictures. Finally, for those reeeeeeeeally strange types, there are ANTI-RELIGIOUS THEMES, including occult practices, references to witchcraft and visits to Hell. While Hell is part of a religion, it can be seen as anti-religious by some stra-diddly-ange Flandersians. Oh, and for that matter, I do not own any of the characters from Soul Edge, Soul Calibur, Soul Calibur II, or the Simpsons. Any other characters I may introduce belong to me, which include characters that are spoken of in the games but are never named. Andditionaly, while the storyline belongs to Namco, this story beongs to me. They can buy it if they want, but not until I'm done. Don't worry, I will NEVER do anything this lengthy at the start of a chapter again, I'll just write a quick blurb about how I don't own anything and possibly include some jokes and/or commentary. This is just for the purposes of introducing my story, although... I have not actually done so yet. Correction... This is for the purposes of introducing the INTRODUCTION of the story. Now for the beginning of the Ultimate Tale of Souls and Swords... Yeah, you read it as the title, so I'll stop blabbing. Let's go!

Eternally Retold.
Now Begins one such New Tale,
Of Pirates and Knights,
Ninja and Samurai,
