Once upon a time there was a world. A world filled with magic and wonder but also danger and chaos. There are many creatures that reside in this world. From humans to Dragons to Gargoyles to Espers. They were all there. They only down side of this world was the war. It was a war like no other. A war that brought the destruction of civilization. Entire species were wiped out. That war had ended 100 years ago, today things are better.
Our story starts in a little town south of fish mountain. This little town wasn't known for much, a few known warriors but aside from that there was nothing else. Of course anyone outside the village would say that but in side of the village it's a different story. This particular village was the holder of many secrets. In this village was a couple. One that had trouble conceiving a child and asked the god Reis; the god of family and children to grant them with a child. As the couple wished they were able to conceive and brought a little girl named Sidra. What the couple didn't know was that the conception of their daughter had come with a price, one that the soon would find out.
Things were going good for the couple and their daughter. Sidra was now 2 years old. Everything was great until a week after Sidra's birthday. Everything started to go bad. That years harvest was rotted, people were dying left and right. When things couldn't have gotten worse Sidra's parents got sick. They thought it would end,the villagers. They had another thing coming. A month after Sidra's birthday the village got raided.
The raiders left nothing behind. They took treasure and killed the rest of the villagers. As a last resort Sidra's parents hid her in the wheat field to save her.
The Raiders left but not before setting the village on fire. Being two years old sidra didn't do anything but cry. She cried and cried waiting for somebody to find her. After a few hours Sidra stopped crying. She sat there in the field watching the night pass by and the day begin a new.
The god Reis watched as this happened waiting for the right moment to take the baby to a safe place. He watched as the town got sick, the crops withered, and the raiders attacked. He watched it all. The morning after Sidra had been left in the field Reis went and grabbed the baby. As Reis looked down at the baby he thought to himself. 'She deserves more than this, a better life with happiness and love instead of hate and fear.' On that note Reis walked through the portal to another world. Reis arrived at a door of an orphanage.
