Intro Log || The Deep Breath Before The Plunge
Characters: All the "Heroes of Light" (only new characters can start threads).
Where: Aqures Ixen.
When: The 5th of July. 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: N/A.
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 couple Moogles and a few nurses will be waiting by the room, and they will welcome all characters waking up. Upon exiting the room, they will also meet a lot of guards, and they all have for order to shoot anyone that comes out of this room without a Moogle. Hopefully you won't try running out without waiting for your Moogle. As for why the guards are so on edge, it might be a good idea to ask the other Heroes of Light about what happened last year.
Very Close Encounters of the Thirteenth Kind
— 14:00 —
Characters venturing by the Ninth District at this time will be able to see a most peculiar and unexpected sight. They will see a strange blue creature running after a Moogle, with the later looking particularly distressed. Before anyone could have a chance to react, the two of them entered a building... And a few minutes later, the blue creature could be seen emerging from the building, running away with a Kupo Nut in hand. In a surprising reversal, this time the Moogle is the one pursuing the blue creature. Needless to say, the Moogle looks furious at this turn of event.
Trying to pursue the blue creature will result in failure and it will disappear. What could it mean...?

Warning: N/A.
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.
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 the Festival of Light nearing, there are a lot of folks working hard to set up the upcoming event! And besides this, there are a lot of things to do in the city for newcomers. Moogles are working hard in Mognet Office of the ninth district! 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. There is however the impression that everyone is on edge, and a lot more officers from the law enforcement in the streets. Why could it be...?
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. It seems all the computer shut down recently, but the people working in the lab are restarting everything. The screens seem to indicate the "summoning process" is over and that the Crystal of Fire's energy level are dangerously. 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.
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:

When he'd first awoken, Ira was... irate. Panicked, in his own way. He never truly liked hospitals. Hated the thought of others watching him, even after all this time. He'd been lucky that Moglin had been there as he awoke, visiting in hopes that he'd awaken with the new arrivals. She'd apparently been visiting often, even though she'd returned to her previous duties. Yet as he stood there for the first time in months, all he could do for a few minutes was look into Sora's still-frozen face. In a way, this place was not unlike the tower's cemetery floor... despite being in the hospital.
"...still can't believe of those of us from our worlds, it..." he muttered, rubbing the tip of his nose with a gloved finger; moogle hanging off his shoulder as though she didn't want him to leave her sights just in case. Hearing he soft-but-sad kupo from her, he shook his head. "Guess it falls to a fake, then."
With that, he turned on his heel to leave.
The City
The city didn't seem to change much, if you discounted how everyone seemed to be a bit... on edge, lately. With how many that had died the last month though, Ira couldn't be surprised. Death was a constant companion to him back in that dark world, but such cruelty wasn't something he'd find the everyday citizens so accustomed to. Hopefully they never would be again, but with how other "heroes" had been used as puppets, though...
It didn't sit right with him. Thus he probably isn't looking too happy as he scans the crowd, hoping to find a familiar face before he goes to his new housing assignment. Maybe someone was kind enough to keep his belongings, however few they were.
The Lab
Of course, he had to come back here when he found out his file had been conveniently unlocked once again. He knew how to use a computer, fortunately, but someone was likely to notice the metaphorical storm cloud attempting once again to just delete the darn thing before locking it once more. Especially when, instead of leaving, he approached one of the employees in the calmest manner he could despite himself.
"I was told there'd been secret reports deciphered while I was in stasis... Could I see a copy?"
Hospital
Glad she wasn't hermiting at least, like last time a major loss had happened.
A flash of silver through the halls though, too short to be Sephiroth, caught Lydia's attention. Huh? Picking up her sketchbook and jogging a bit--not making a noise due to her Vampire job--and getting a better look.
"Ira?" He was back? "IRA!!!" Now running at him full-tilt, a smile on her face. They hadn't talked much, but she liked the older boy enough and was glad he was back.
Re: Hospital
"Hey, Lydia." He smiled a bit, a bit grateful.
Re: Hospital
Have a very very tight hug, Ira.
Re: Hospital
He had no idea how to comfort, despite having previously tried to be so for his sister. The least he could do was rather awkwardly return the hug in kind. "...That bad, huh." It wasn't a question, but if his presence was enough to bring this on, it had to have been bad in her eyes.
Re: Hospital
"I'm sick of losing friends, ok?" So no more Crystal-stasis for you, buddy.
Re: Hospital
He'll try not to go into stasis again, gosh.
Re: Hospital
"What's the last thing you remember?"
Re: Hospital
Re: Hospital
"There's...been a lot happening. Probably the most important is this though." A sigh, and a deep breath, Betel-Po fluttering over and hugging her, Lydia cuddling him a bit. "Zelda is dead. Not Crystal-stasis dead...dead-dead."
Re: Hospital
"I'd mentioned there were deaths, but... it's just so sad kupo," Lin's pom drooped, fluttering over to Lydia's side and hugging her as well.
Re: Hospital
"Zelda though...she...didn't. I'm not sure how yet." No one really was sure how, and Lydia hadn't really gotten all the details. "That was two days ago."
Re: Hospital
Heroes as targets, though, huh.
"Do you think you could tell me what else you know about the murders?" He asked, though his tone may have leaked more bitterness than he wanted. "Those involved?"

Hospital
"Ira! You're awake!"
Hospital (wow this did not appear in my inbox wtf? :C)
"Yeah. Though I'd probably pinch yourself just in case." To which Lin couldn't help but laugh. Ah, good times. "Been a while hasn't it, Cloud?"
It's ok. Can't quite remember how long ago Ira went into stasis though.
"Yeah...a while. Feels longer than it's been probably. How are you feeling?"
2-3 months ago from this intro log.
"Oh, just great." He shrugged it off, following Cloud's gaze for a second before his gaze falls back to Sora. "My older sister's still missing, likely a statue somewhere, and, well." He gestured with a hand to the others in stasis around them. "Guess being awake's an improvement."
Sorry, inbox hid this from me
"Considering what's coming soon, it's probably better to be awake so you can help fight back....and wait...what do you mean older sister?" This was news to Cloud.
Ditto
"Xion. She was one of the Heroes from Mysidia several months ago." He replied, before crossing his arms. After all, her body wasn't among the others that had been... discovered. Since they were more human-like than the materials they were made from in this world, he almost hopes she is in stasis and didn't simply vanish. "I'm going to guess you mean something to do with Palitutu?"
Re: Ditto
"Xion...I think I ran into her in the markets or a shop when she was here. She seemed nice." He frowned, the worst case scenario coming to mind but there was no reason to chase it down right now, let alone suggest it. "If I hear anything about her I'll let you know. And yeah, Palitutu. She wants to meet us in August."
Re: Ditto
"Why am I not surprised?" He asked rhetorically. "'Let's meet together at a location of my choosing. It clearly isn't a trap of sorts meant to kill every last one of you, no!'"
...He may have personal experience with that.
Re: Ditto
Re: Ditto
[ > You get the feeling he has personal experience with antagonists... ]

Re: Ditto
With that said, he started to head toward the door...
