Summary, Warnings, Disclaimers, and Notes

Ah, welcome! It's been....quite some time since I've written anything new here, but I'd like to get started again. And what better than with a Final Fantasy piece, right? I have to admit, my reasons for actually writing this story are pretty selfish.... I was annoyed at the lack of background they gave to the characters you create in the game, so I felt like writing my own people. And from there, their story almost wrote itself. I'm lying, of course. If it wrote itself, then I wouldn't be passing out from lack of sleep while trying to get this written out.
Enough of my ramblings. A quick summary of this story would be.... Well, there isn't really a way to make a quick summary of this without belittling some major parts, so I think I'll just leave this part blank. Almost. Whatever it is, I'm hoping that it'll be a bit different from the average caravan tale. And it'll be long. Very long. I'm sure about that, at least.
And there are going to be some differences from the game. Miasma doesn't kill immediately, it's truly like a poison that corrupts the body and breaks it down. Um.... I'm not really following the story in the game at all, maybe a few things will come into play, but I'm basically starting at the time where you begin the game, and creating my own stuff from there on. Characters from the game may be mentioned, but I will most likely have created a different story for them than what was given in the game. What else.... Um, Magicite is a little different, still casting and all that stuff, but in general, people don't let the Magicite pieces touch bare skin. Fire stones will burn, Blizzard stones will be extremely cold to the touch, Thunder stones will give a shock, etc. If I can think of anything else, I might add it later. Maybe not. You'll be able to figure it out, I'm sure.
And on to the warnings. There are none really, at least for now, as you could most likely tell by the rating. It's probably going to go up eventually, but not right now. I'll warn you all ahead of time if it does, so don't worry about that. A last warning, though, is that there is going to be shounen-ai in this story, but again, not for a LONG while. Shounen-ai is homosexual relationships, and if that bugs you, then either read up till then and stop, or just don't read at all. Like with the rating, warning will come in plenty of time.
Finally, the disclaimer. I'll write it just once here, instead of rewriting it onto all the following chapters, because I'm a very lazy person. So please don't sue. I have nothing of monetary value. At all. Anyway, I don't own Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles. I am making no money off of this story.
Satisfied? Now on to the story....
