Tales of Symphonia: Aftermath of the Angels

Lloyd: . . . well I am going to get rid of all the exspheres in both Tethe'alla and Sylvarant.

Colette: I'm coming with you right Lloyd?

Lloyd: Yup now let's go get those Exspheres.

Colette: Yah!

They decided to return to Iselia to see what had become of the ranch their. They took a Rheaird but decided to land at the Great Nut Tree to visit and to remember old memories of their big adventure. But when they landed they saw a man standing in front of the tree. He was looking up at them and it seemed that he was waiting for them. But something was different because when the trio tried to fly away they couldn't. It seemed that he was controlling the metal of the Rheaird and pulling them towards him. When they landed the man was laughing at them. Now that they were closer they saw that he was a very fit man. His eyes were green and his hair was very interesting. It was a normal pink and green (a/n think Yu-gi-oh). He was wearing a green t-shirt and blue pants (a/n like Kratos) his gloves were green finger cut-offs and his boots were brown and he had a hat that shadowed his eyes.

Mysterious Man: Ahh just who I was looking for, now if you could tell me your name we could get started.

Lloyd: Who are you to ask for my name?

Mysterious Man: Your right how rude of me I am Éffora. I am here to help on your quest.

Éffora spoke with smugness in his voice. It was as if he thought that he was a lot better then a lot of people. Lloyd didn't like this and decided the best thing to do was:

Lloyd: You sure talk like your good at fighting how about we see who is best.

Éffora: Oh please I could beat you anywhere and anytime BUT I want to help you not kill you.

Colette: Why do you want to help me and Lloyd?

Éffora: Because I was on a journey like yours. A long time ago. I did not finish my quest for regeneration and because of that every one excluded me so I faked my death.

Colette: You're a Chosen?

Éffora: Yes I was tied in to the same thing you were and I too realized that it was all a plot to get back one person: Martel. I found this out and tried to run from the Tower of Salvation but my comrades locked the door and left me there for the angels. I escaped thankfully but did severe damage to the angels and tons of them were killed. Those bodies you see floating around aren't the chosen but they are the angels that have died in the greatest fight to date. Besides yours of course.

Colette: But I thought that the chosen's quest was held for generations and generations?

Éffora: It was but there are millions of bodies there floating and only a handful at the top are the chosen's that have died because of the rejection of Martel's presence or because they were killed by Mithos. But the angels wanted me dead so they thought they could overwhelm me but I had a couple tricks up my sleeve. I noticed that they rushed in a clump of them so hat they could overwhelm me but I crushed them by bringing two solid rock pillars to crush and kill them. But they still came so I had to use almost all my strength to get rid of most of them. Then I shut the pillars of rock and ran for the door. If the angels leave the tower they become weak because of the shortage of mana. Basically they become deformed half-elves that have enough strength to cast two spells. Anyway I got away and started going after the desians but they kept disappearing before I could get all of them and they would just keep getting bigger and bigger and soon I just hid in a cave near the Tower of Salvation waiting for the right moment. And that is when I saw you people first entering the Tower and so I followed you for wherever you went I went too.

Lloyd: Even in Tethe'alla?

Éffora: Yes even their. I stole a Rheaird and followed to see what would become of your quest. And now I am here to help you with your new quest.

Lloyd: What makes you worthy of joining us. I want proof and I also want to see if you are strong enough.

Éffora: Fine if you want proof I will give you proof. You know in the Tower of Salvation at the bottom steps.

Lloyd: Yah I remember there are two old new ones and the rest look brand new.

Éffora: Well the reason is because I destroyed those steps with huge blocks of rock when I was killing those angels. Also the reason the bodies are covered up are because the ang-

Colette: STOP IT! I don't want to hear anymore. Lloyd Just fight him and get this over with.

Lloyd: Sure Colette. Éffora you are going DOWN!
