Tales of a Journey

By Rogue White Dragon

Disclaimer: I don't own Tales of Symphonia, I'm just a fan.

Authors note: I'm assuming that since the game is called Tales of Symphonia, that Symphonia is what they call the world when both Tethe'alla and Sylvarant combine into one world. If I'm wrong, I apologize, this is just my assumption.

Chapter 1 – Prologue

My name is Lloyd Irving, and I once partook in the Journey of World Regeneration. That adventure has long since been over. The good memories, and the difficult ones, are all in my past. I haven't seen any of the group for more than fifteen years. With the exception of my wife, Colette, of course.

Genis and the Professor went on a trip shortly after going back to Iselia. They said they were going to study all the changes in our new world. Tethe'alla and Sylvarant; our new home Symphonia. Haven't seen them since.

Presea went back to Ozette, to rebuild it. Regal went back to his company. Zelos back to his manner, and now is in search of a wife.

That's basically everyone, except her. Sheena…

Sheena and I weren't on very good terms when she left. The plan at first was that she would go to Iselia with Genis, Colette, the Professor and I. I thought I loved her, but one day she just up and left. It was only two years after that, that Colette and I began seeing eachother, and another year after that till we married. All Sheena left when she went, was a note that said 'I'm not ready'.

Anyways, that about brings me to the present. Colette and I have a son about ten years old, named Mattrim. He looks a lot like his mother (kind of acts like her too:P). We live in her parents old house, because Phaidra died, and her father lives in a smaller house now, next to us.

Today, as usual, was sunny, warm, and generally normal. I wasn't quite sure what to think when someone knocked on the door, and when I opened it, Genis, and Rain stood there, carrying a barely conscious Orochi with them.

"Wha..?"
Was all I could get out

"Mizuho was attacked, Lloyd, Sheena and all the others were taken by a bunch of elves."

Shocked and amazed at seeing my friends there, I stepped aside and let them enter. Mizuho was attacked? Who would do that? Who would even know (besides us) where it was?

I know it's short, but I wanted to start this, and I didn't want to add too much for the prologue. The next chapter will be longer. R&R, thanks for reading
