HIDDEN TRUTH
— 22nd of February – 10:00 AM —

After a long and tenuous journey, these new Heroes of Light have finally reached the gates of Mysidia. After everything they went through, the sight of such a welcoming and friendly city probably looks like a shining beacon of light in the midst of darkness. Maybe this is the end of their hardships. But this might be the beginning of another story altogether. Besides the natives, they may meet some of the already in-game Heroes of Light-- Some live in Mysidia and those who don't will be informed within hours of what's happening through Mognet.

There might be a lot of questions asked on both sides, and unfortunately there are very few answers.


THE CITY OF MYSIDIA
— Anytime —

Mysidia isn't like any other city in Crystallis. The people living in this city tend to excel in magic, as witnessed by the edifices dedicated to magic and the study of Magitek. It is within this prosperous city that the new Heroes of Light might get to know some of the species populating the world of Crystallis, namely the Primal Moogles, Bangaas and Elezens. For people as exhausted as these new heroes, there is everything they might need: inns to sleep, restaurants to eat and shops to restock what they need. After all of this, they may get to know traders, treasure hunters and maybe start learning of this city's history and magics.

And beyond all of these things, they may get to meet the Heroes of Light who already live in this city. The natives will tell them what little they know, but it's these Heroes who know the most here. There is also an Airship docked by the city, and it will leave for Aqures Ixen every day starting from the 23rd.


THE ENTERPRISE
— Everyday starting the 23rd of February – 03:00 PM —

One of the things these new Heroes of Light might not have seen before are Airships. Wonderful flying contraptions that allow people go to roam the skies freely! And the Enterprise is one of the biggest and most advanced Airship in this world. Developed by Cid, it now belongs to the Heroes of Light who use it in their quest to rid Crystallis of the Calamity. This Airship will go back and forth from Aqures Ixen to Mysidia, everyday for the entire duration of the event.

Some areas are off-limits, such as the machine room. But there are quarters in the Airship where the Heroes of Light can sleep-- They're big enough to contain only four beds... Comfort isn't really the name of the place. If they'd like though, they can go to the bridge to get an amazing view while on their way to the next city, or to the cafeteria in case they're hungry. Who knows, maybe they'll meet other Heroes of Light whilst aboard the Airship.


AQURES IXEN
— Anytime staring the 23rd of February – 08:00 PM —

Aqures Ixen is what a lot of Heroes of Light would call "home," or at least it's the closest thing they have to a home in this world. The Enterprise will bring all new Heroes of Light to this city, and this is where they are most likely to meet their peers who weren't in Mysidia. Aqures Ixen is a large town with people from all over Crystallis meeting and working together: what might be the most apparent to any newcomer is the Blitzball Stadium where games are regularly being held. What might be less apparent are the former Heroes of Light now in Crystal Stasis, all kept in the Hospital. Hopefully one of your friends isn't among them...

Noticeably, characters may notice the Hypellos shipping rather large chocolate eggs and various chocolate sculptures into the city. Certainly it cannot be related to Choco Egg Day happening next month, can it? They'll mention no one is to eat these eggs, and while characters are free to disregard what they say, anyone working for the Law Enforcement is free to put those who would dare eat these delicious chocolate eggs in jail.


THE WORLD OF CRYSTALLIS
— Anytime —

From Mysidia, characters may explore the Ancient Ruins, go to Downapolis or even go back to the Crystal Forest-- But why would they want to go back into the crystal caves? And with Aqures Ixen, all of Crystallis is now open to these new Heroes of Light. Indeed, boarding a Shoopuf Airline Airship will take the characters to nearly any city, besides Aerilon, Nabila and the Continent of Ruins. If you don't like Airships, you can try capturing a Chocobo at the Chocobo Farm next to Aqures Ixen, but beware of Chocobo Eaters!

Trano Golsaucia is a popular destination for new Heroes of Light: it's by far the city with the most things to do, whether you're into Blitzball, Triple Triad, Chocobo Races or Mini-Games. There's even a horror square! But surely Heroes of Light who've seen so much won't be afraid by fake ghosts and spooky attractions... Right?

And besides these places? Feel free to check the location page and pick which places interest you the most!

"K-Kalki?" an eyebrow rose in confusion. "Is that really true? I heard she was supposed to be some kind of bad guy... Don't tell me she kept you guys locked up in some kind of weird prison for seven months! She didn't hurt you, did she?" there was a sudden intensity in Sayaka's blue eyes, as she looked her friend over again, making sure there was no damage done to the other girl.

"If she did, I swear, I'll..."
finalwish: (Listening)

Madoka shook her head pulling away from her friend. “You have it wrong, she helped us.” She tried to stop Sayaka from looking for scares or marks; there were a few blemishes on her once perfect skin from battles fought months before. They had healers but some things simply didn’t heal all the way.

“When we woke up, she explained what was going on and she saved us from Palitutu who came to hurt us. We were trapped then and Kalki had to leave. We did everything to come back.” To find you.

"What? Helped you...?" That sounded fishy. That, coupled with Madoka's tendency to trust just about everyone -- even weird transfer students -- didn't do much for Sayaka's faith in the matter. But the one important thing about it all remained true. "Well... as long as you're safe, that's all that matters."

And after a moment of reflection... "You know, I wouldn't be surprised if that transfer student was working with her somehow, either. All of this just sounds so fishy, you know?"
finalwish: (Huh)

[personal profile] finalwish 2016-03-12 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"Transfer student? You mean Homura?" Madoka looked over at Sayaka with a confused stare. "She's always been nice and protected me... she's our friend."

Madoka realized that Sayaka didn't remember everything but Homura was a good friend. She didn't want her friends fighting each other. She didn't want any of them to be forced to fight.

"Of course, I can just imagine her being nice to you," Sayaka is quick to run with her friend's conclusion, crossing her arms and nodding with her eyes closed, her own thoughts playing out behind the lids. "It's all to build up to her ulterior motives... whatever those might be. But!" she opened them again, pointing up at the sky.

"You don't have to worry about that any more! Super Crystal Knight Sayaka Miki will protect you from now on!"
