Intro Log || Melodies of Eternity
Characters: All the "Heroes of Light" (only new characters can start threads).
Where: Aqures Ixen.
When: The 5th of March. The new Heroes of Light will awaken early in the morning.
Summary: The new Heroes of Light awaken in Aqures Ixen and are informed by their assigned Moogles of what the situation and what their destinies are. This a log for them to react to the situation, meet each other and be welcomed by the former batches of Heroes of Light.
Warning: Lots of distressed and depressed Heroes of Light.
The Hospital
— Anytime —
Characters who have already been in Crystallis before do not wake up by the Crystal of Fire like everyone else. Instead, they will wake up in the Hospital of Aqures Ixen, in a room where there are over a hundred of other Heroes of Light like them-- Maybe even some familiar faces... Except they're all in Crystal Stasis.
A few Moogles and nurses will be waiting by the room, and they will welcome all characters waking up. However...
Upon exiting the room, they will find the Hospital is very busy. Nurses and healers can be seen moving corpses around on stretchers, and overall a very dark and tense atmosphere reigns over the Hospital. In closed rooms, some of the most skilled healers are trying to analyze the corpses and find out what happened. And these dead people? They are of the Heroes of Light who died on the 29th of February.
Melodies of Eternity
— Anytime —
If you are a Hero of Light who survived that accursed day, your crystal will shine at the very same moment the new Heroes appear before the Crystal of Fire. That means your character is now linked to the Crystal of Fire and will come back to life after a week if killed.
They will also receive their Moogle and their housing in the 11th or 14th District. But that probably isn't enough for the pain to go away.

Warning: Lots of distressed and depressed Heroes of Light.
Where you were or what you were doing— It does not really matter. Not any more. Within an instant, the world around you collapses. Reality twists and shatters... Or maybe you are the one who is collapsing and shattering away from reality as you knew it. No matter what the answer is, it will only take a few seconds for you to find yourself sinking into a void, your world vanishing into the distance. There is nothing but darkness as far as the eye can see. Even you feel different: all the powers you might once have had, are now gone. It is silent, cold and it feels as though life itself is slipping out of you.
At this moment, when it looks as though nothing but a never-ending void awaits you, a red Crystal forms before you. In this void, its warmth compels you to grab it. Upon doing so, you can hear a soft, soothing voice speaking:
"Wake up."
Soon, the void itself vanishes and is replaced by distant noises of engines. Had it all been nothing more than a dream? The soothing voice repeats its call one more time, but is soon replaced with a much less graceful "Wake up Kupo." Hand clutched on your Crystal, the call of the Moogle may finally wake you up. But you are no longer in your world, nor in the void. You are before the Crystal of Fire, in the third district of a city called Aqures Ixen. At this point, you may realize the engine noise actually originates from an Airship flying low over the city and headed to dock beneath the castle. As if it wasn't strange enough, your clothes have changed as well. They are now a reflection of the Jobs you are wielding. Last but not least, you are surrounded by Moogles, small and fluffy creatures who are more than happy to tell you about everything you want to know, about your 'destiny' as a Hero of Light, about what awaits you.
Or at least, they will tell you everything they do know, which isn't much in the end.
The only people around you are like you-- There are quite a few of them, all clothed in their Job garbs and most likely wondering what is happening. If somehow you do not realize it, the Moogle who woke you up will be more than happy to inform you there are others like you around. In fact, there are other Heroes who have arrived in the course of the past year and they will come soon! Like you, they have Jobs and a Crystal.
If asked, the Moogles will mention that the Heroes of Light - that is to say you - are fighting against time to save Crystallis from the Calamity that is about to awaken to devour the entire world. Well, that is if you don't die or crystallize first. A couple days ago, a lot of Heroes of Light crystallized or died out of the blue without any warning! Sounds terrible? Welcome to Crystallis.
The Other Heroes
— Shortly Thereafter —
Thanks to the efficiency of Mognet, it does not take long for the other Heroes to come around: those who arrived in this world within the past year. You may have imagined heroic and charismatic figures when your Moogle told you that there were other Heroes of Light in this city. You may have imagined persons with fearsome powers when they told you about how they managed to push back the Empire and defeat gigantic beasts in the past. And more importantly, you may have imagined them as people who would have all the answers to your, doubtlessly, numerous questions.
If so, you may be up for a tragic disappointment. Still, for the most part they know more than you on the situation and may be more than happy to fill you in, especially if your Moogle didn't tell you much.
The City of Aqures Ixen
— Anytime —
With Choco Egg day nearing, there are a lot fo Hypello working on the upcoming competitions and on making chocolates! Want to eat some? Too bad, the Moogles will hit you with the stick they use to make the chocolate if you try to eat them!
And besides the chocolates, there are a lot of things to do in the city for newcomers. Moogles are working hard in Mognet Office of the ninth district following the election of their new director, and while there are no Blitzball Matches today, a lot of Triple Triad players are gathered at the stadium. Why? Because they are working on the early preparations for the Triple Triad World Championship that will happen in May! Characters are also free to visit the city-- They can visit Airship Port in the twelfth district from where characters can board for free Airships from Shoopuf Airline.
Or maybe you could visit your new house in the 11th District, and get to know your new neighbors and housemate. Hopefully your neighbors are people you will get along with.
The Laboratory
— Anytime —
A location where a lot of Heroes of Light seem to be gathering is Palitutu's Laboratory. It is a place where employed characters can research into various topics. However, most importantly, characters can see a file with their name...
Should your character decide to go there and peek at their file, there are two possibilities. Either the file is corrupted and they cannot access it: too bad for them, but at least their life will remain a mystery. Or should you decide the file isn't corrupted, they will find a summary of their lives up to their canon point, as if written by a third-person omniscient narrator. On the column left to the text, to the top there is a portrait of them, and beneath it there is a 3D model of them. Said portrait and model can be switched to any year of their life. At the bottom there is a percentage, indicating 0%. On the right column, there are various links, most of which are grayed out. The clickable links lead to their Homeworld History and their future post-canon point history (corrupted file for unfinished canons).
At least, they can lock this file away if they don't want anyone to see it.

Re: The Crystal of Fire
"I don't think I'd want to live any where else, actually. Or rather, I can't imagine myself living elsewhere than with you."
The mention of traveling with a party was an odd notion to take in, considering his experiences and history of exploration. It wasn't as if Link didn't enjoy company, but when one was used to trekking alone, it was a tad difficult to get used to having others around oneself, especially in a pinch.
"Things are more dangerous, construction is needed, and we need to solve the Calamity before it gets worse. That about sums it up, right?"
The Crystal of Fire
"Yes."
He had an amazing way to simplify things.
"I have been working on some of that too if you'd like to help."
Re: The Crystal of Fire
"That's what heroes are for, right? You know that I'm always willing to help, just not sure what I can do."
He wipes a hand over his forehead, laughing softly as he shifts his feet on their heels while speaking.
"I'm not sure cutting hedges and throwing rocks is going to do much for the people here, but if I can do any sort of woodwork or help out with any quests, then I'm all ears!"
Jokingly he plucks the tips of his pointed-ears, flapping them with a foolish grin on his face.
The Crystal of Fire
"Thank you Link." Her expression softened slightly, her watery blue gaze shining from the sun. "You don't know, it might help."
She laughed softly, her fingers moving to cover her lips.
Re: The Crystal of Fire
Hands on his hips, Link looks overly confident for a lad who'd been trapped in crystal only a short few hours ago.
"I'll take a stock of what we have at the house and see what more I need to start doing some repairs around here. Hopefully things haven't changed too much, or has all my lumber been used already?"
Re: The Crystal of Fire
Zelda beckons Link to follow her with a quick wave of her hand. “I’ll show you were I put everything.” Her smile was light, careful as if to keep her emotions in check. She was very happy to see Link but there were some feelings she wasn’t sure how to handle, for now she’d focus on Link.
“You’re welcome to stay at the Old observatory also. There is an open room and it’s where I have been staying most often.” When she wasn’t staying with Midna.
Re: The Crystal of Fire
It wasn't the most important thing to hang on for the moment, considering there were leagues of other details that were more pertinent than where his bed would be moving forward.
Following beside her like an old friend, he walked along with Zelda as they neared closer to the Observatory.
"I.. Thank you. I don't know what else to say. I'm really thankful you watched over my things while I was gone. I really hope it wasn't too much trouble. Really."
The Crystal of Fire
She smiled at Link. "You're always welcome there." She loved living with him.
At his thank you she smiled a little wider. "I'm always going to take care of you Link. It's never any trouble." It was something she chose to do, something she'd decided a long time ago and it wasn't going to change.
