Intro Log || The Night of the Thirteen Moogles

Characters: All the "Heroes of Light" (only new characters can start threads).
Where: Aqures Ixen.
When: The 5th of October. 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. New Heroes of Light will not have their Crystal.
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," the call of the Moogle finally waking 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 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 arrived these past months too and they will come soon! Like you, they had Jobs and a Crystal-- Wait, you don't have a Crystal...? That's weird.

Your Moogle will be puzzled by this fact, as all Heroes of Light are supposed to have a crystal with them. Well, maybe you are not a Hero of Light after all?


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 one or two months ago. 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 worthy of being revered as heroes. 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 minor 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 Night of the Thirteen Moogles
— Anytime —

Something that may be obvious, is that the city has a spooky feel to it. There are various decorations, it clearly looks like a work in progress but it seems the idea is to make the city looks as scary as possible. Characters familiar with Halloween may recognize the decoration as being strikingly similar. The Moogles will be more than pleased to explain these are all preparations for the upcoming Night of the Thirteen Moogles on the 31st, and they will explain the legends to characters if they ask.

Hopefully all this talk of curse and King Moggle Mog is nothing more than legend.


The City of Aqures Ixen
— Anytime —

There are a lot of things left to do in the city, especially with everyone excited for the upcoming celebration. Starting from 18:00, a series of BLitzball games will take place at the stadium located in the tenth district, opposing amateur teams in a friendly competition. At the same time, a small group of Triple Triad players are playing before Mognet Office in the ninth district, and they are more than happy to teach the rule to anyone passing by. Characters are free to enter and play games of Triple Triad, and if they do so they will be given very basic cards and explained the rules. This may be the start of a promising career!

Characters are also free to visit the city-- Be it Mognet Office just behind the Triple Triad games is filled with very busy Moogles, or the Airship Port in the twelfth district from where characters can board for free Airships from Shoopuf Airline, knowing the next airship departing from Aqures Ixen will do so on the 9th. Still, characters can board an exposition Airship should they like and visit it.

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.

By now, Gaara should have learned better than to let his Moogle wander around... ever. She was definitely the social butterfly type, and seemed to want to befriend everyone in sight.

Catching sight of new people - both Hero and Moogle - she flew over to Blaze and happily waved a paw at him in greeting. "Hi! Did you just get a new Hero today? There are so many people here, kupo!"

A few feet behind her, Gaara pressed his lips together in a brief show of exasperation. Somewhat reluctantly, he stepped forward to catch up with his Moogle, and then... stared at the girl in mild surprise. "...Kairi."

He had seen her before, at the facility. She was friends with Sora and Riku, from their island. Most likely, she wouldn't remember who he was... unless this version was from the same world.

Blaze was finally sticking close to the young girl who had stopped long enough for the poor moogle to catch up, so when the other comes to say hello he has his breath back and waves his tiny paw. "Hello. I did, though they keep running around. It makes it hard to keep up, kupo!"

This made Kairi feel a bit sorry, but at the same time she had felt like a kid in a candy store, being on a new world and honestly wondering if it was her chance to help out even considering what she was suppose to be doing before she got here. She figured that hadn't been the case exactly. They still needed her help but she wasn't sent here by the person who was suppose to train her.

As she was about to speak she looked over, hearing her name being called and seeing the sight of someone... she didn't recognize. Curious as to how they would know her name without her mentioning it she at least will apologize for not remembering someone. "That is my name, but I'm sorry. I have no idea who you are, but I'll be happy to get to know you."

“Oh, yes! They’re very energetic, kupo!” Karura flew forward and reached for his paw to try and shake it. That was something she had seen a few of the humans doing, whenever they met for the first time. “It’s a good thing we have wings! What’s your name? I’m Karura, kupo!”

In all honesty, he wasn’t surprised by her reaction. After being in three different worlds already, he had come across multiple versions of people. He needed to accept the fact that his original friends were no longer around. The question was… did he consider it worthwhile to start over and befriend them again? Since there was that dangerous risk of being forgotten, once more.

Despite being usually stern, Gaara tried to soften his expression a little, for her sake. From what he remembered, Kairi was gentler, compared to the other two boys. Just as resilient and strong, when it came to adversity, but her nature carried a great deal of kindness.

“My name is Gaara.” A brief pause as he wondered how he should explain his background… or if she would even believe him, for that matter. “I am… or rather, I was, a friend of Sora’s, at a previous location. I was also acquainted with Riku.”

Blaze didn't know what to do right away with the paw, but it wasn't until Kairi held out her hand and started to move it up and down that he figured it out and took the others paw, causing the young girl to smile. It was kind of an adorable sight to see really. "I'm Blaze, kupo!"

Kairi had gone back to paying attention to the other now that she had sorted out her moogle in terms of interaction. Which she thought was a good thing to learn honestly.

"Nice to meet you, Gaara." She had said before her eyes widen slightly. She knew that Sora would travel and he went to many worlds, but she would have never thought she would meet someone he has met previously. It was quite exciting for her. "You've met my friends? They were good to you, right?" She asked knowing full well they would be, but she couldn't help but ask such a question.
