Dawn was fast approaching as the sun peeked over the snow-capped Fooji Mountains. The stars & moon slowly descended as light fell across the awakening Meltokio. Birds chirped in delight as they swooped across the sky, scanning the grounds for a morning meal.
The red-headed, ex-chosen, Zelos Wilder sat in his study, scanning the pages of a treaty with Heimdall. It was surprising, but they had opened up their gates, letting their culture flow and maybe even catch onto humans. Most of the citizens of Meltokio were against it, saying that if elves were to come, they would shut them out of their houses. A few citizens couldn't make up their minds as to whether or not the elves should be allowed peace with a different species. The remaining persons of the city said it would be a great choice for elves to visit the world.
Zelos was for it after hearing the story and meeting so many sweet hunnies along the way that were elves or half-elves. Nodding his head slowly as his ocean blue eyes as he read the sentences, he came across a line that read: "...under Yggdrasil's demands & rule..." He paused and stared at the sentence. Yggdrasil was gone, dead. He and his companions defeated him a year ago, and this treaty was created at least two months ago, so why?
Didn't the elves of Heimdall also say that Mitho's name was forbidden? But then again, they did say Yggdrasil, didn't they realize that Yggdrasil and Mithos are the same person?
The red-head shook his head and frowned, trying to piece together this newly discovered mystery. After a long moment of silence, slid open a drawer on the polished oak desk & drew out a piece of parchment. Zelos was taking over the King's place for now, as the King was recovering still from the incident with the Pope. It didn't seem any different from when he was Chosen; he still hung around his favorite hunnies, and even flirted with the beautiful Princess Hilda at times inside the castle walls.
Retrieving some ink & a feathered quill, he began to write to his best bud, Lloyd Irving, about the line he read with Yggdrasil's name. Pausing after the first sentence to dip the pen in ink, he began to write again, but something caught his eye.
A huge white bird was gliding over the Fooji Mountins, flowing gracefully as it ascended and it's shadow drew and stretched out on the ground. Becoming enchanted and watching the giant bird, a burst of bright light suddenly came down and struck the bird.
Zelos watched the bird descend, dead as dead can be. Getting up, he went to the door and got his sword from the coat rack and slung it around his waist. He exited the King's study room thinking about what that light could be. It could have been lightning, and Volt was angered at Sheena. He snorted at the thought as he went down the stairs of the castle to go to the Fooji Mountains.
The ex-chosen shook his head as he continued down the hall, waving to the maids and knights lining the halls. A light of judgement...No, he didn't want to think of that alternative.

"I said place it over there!" the purple haired ninja sighed as she pointed to a place near the Vice Chief's new house everyone had built for him since they moved to Sylvarant. Sheena Fujibayashi was in an angry mood today. Something not good considering how she couldn't keep her temper in for a long period of time. She was just that way.
Smoothing out the bumps in her purple hair, which was in the same updo as usual, she stared at the golden sky that signaled the sun was coming soon. The new Mizuho had located themselves close to Iselia, replacing where the Desian Ranch had once been. They had been able to move in completely in less than a week which was really good considering all the things they brought with them.
They carried the same custom as Sheena had enforced a couple days ago, and being a Chief wasn't an easy job. Yawning and strecthing her arms, the ninja stared at the sky, a sad look overcome on her face.
A ninja in blue silently, using his skills, crept up on Sheena and leaned his face next to her ear. Smiling a bit to himself, Orochi whispered in her ears. "You miss him, don't you?"
Sheena jumped in surprise, a light blush gracing her features. Surprised to see it was only Orochi, she smiled and laughed a bit. "Who? I miss all my friends yeah..." Orochi tilted his head at her, and Sheena's eyes widened. "You're my friend too of course! You know that, right?" she asked, hoping he wasn't offended.
Orochi nodded and chuckled a bit. Regaining a bit of his more serious side, he looked at her. "You know, he's probably in Meltokio right now," he said, watching her turn her back on him.
"Zelos," she whispered, then shook her head. "I don't have any feelings for anybody," she turned around, facing her friend. "At the moment." A smile brightened her face the sun beginning to shine on it. Orochi smiled back and gave her a pat on the shoulder.
"Yeah, at the moment." he joked. Walking away to count his stock of Apple Gels contained in a box he kept, Sheena kept the smile and turned around again. "Alright, let's all-" Sheena was cut off as the ground beneath her rumbled. Kneeling down on the ground to keep safe, she remained there for a moment as the rumbling ceased down. Eyebrows furrowed in confusion, she looked around and everyone else looked back at her, even Orochi had knelt down on the ground, an expressionless look on his face.
Standing up and looking at the ground, she was surprised to feel the ground rumbling again. Kneeling down to keep safe from falling over, she motioned everyone to crouch on the ground as well. The rumbling increased a bit as it shook the whole village. Looking up at the sky, she noticed a flash of light from nearby. Standing up, she kept her hand down to tell the villagers to stay close to ground. Her eyes widened as she saw another flash of light.
In what seemed a millisecond, a million flashes of light crashed into the ground in Sylvarant that day.
