Blaze here: Right, just... I dunno, something.

Gonna set this in a broken world, floating on dreams.

The Land, a precipise above darkness.

The people who live there, stuck in between reality and a dream: The genetic memory of what the world was before its destruction.

But is it really a dream? The world of that era past...

Heretics, those from the broken world. They know not of their broken world, or of the fact that they are interlopers. They only know that they are orphans.

What destiny is it that brought them to this foreign time? And why do they dream of the broken world that floats upon darkness?

~~~
The World: Basically a mesh of the Areas from Final Fantasy 1-10, but the story has no connections. Really just needed a base, so yeah.
~~~

Name: Christopher Augusta
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Hair & Eye color: Brown medium length messy hair, Purple, almost black eyes (A sign of the Heretics)
Height/Weight/Build: 5'9", 153 lbs, average build
Appearance: Wears a black turtleneck shirt and tan cargo pants, tucked into military style boots. Wears a silver belt with a small chain attached to the right.
Personality: We'll just have to see on that.
Background: Heretic. An orphan living at the Library of the Ancients and working as a research aid. Doesn't leave often due to the fact that he has been attacked for being known as a 'Heretic'. He spends most of his free time in the deepest parts of the Library, searching for information on the Heretics. Carries a dagger to defend himself against the monsters in the basements, but isn't well trained.

EDIT: Added a background.

she has a Amber gemmed, silver necklace that she wear, as your gaze lowers you come upon a white cobweb like top worn over a black corset, and there are black leather armlets over the top. Then there are black denim jeans that have what could only be described as studs running down the seams on the sides of the legs. She wears a pair of black Leather boots studded over the front toe area that had been reinforced with more leather. She also has a hand-carved Staff wrapped with a golden chain that has three Labradorite gems. And she also has an ability to create Amber Butterflies that can do a variety of tasks for her.

And even though it seemed unlikely for her to survive, her will to survive pushed her through. She carver a staff when she was young and began trying to learn magic. By the time she was twenty she had learned most basic spells, and a few she has been creating herself, most notably, she had created her "Crystal Butterfly" Spell, and the "Glimmering Mist" Spell.

(Start time, so sayeth the Blaze)

~Chris~

In the Ancient Library, a solitary youth sat by a lantern, looking at a book.

"Hm... No mention of them here either... Like Heretics are mentioned only once every... I dunno... Hundred years? Why do people hate us though... Why the ugly name?" He pondered aloud as he skimmed through the pages. As he did this, a shadow slowly crept up behind him.

Ri'Rin was headed on a Mission for knowledge, one to increase her strength, her knowledge. She knew of one location that held countless knowledge. The Library of Ancients. She had read about it once before and knew it general location. So she decided to try a spell she had been testing on rocks, even a few birds... Teleport. "All shall move at my command, ripped from where they currently stand. Teleport!" She chanted as a ring of Mana appeared around her. Then.. poof. She was gone.

"Phew... needed this time off." Hannah momentarily thought to herself as she hiked several miles along a foot-worn path from her post in Baron. "Surprising they even gave me time off. How long has it been...?"

She closed her eyes, folding her arms as she stepped along. "Oh right, it's been about a year since I last had time off." She opened her clear, violet eyes, resting them on the setting sun.

"Either way, I should do something lazy... yet productive. I have a week..." She mumbled, hearing the birds sing their nocturnal tune.

"I could do some reading at the Library. After all, it's something I hardly am able to do." And over the horizon was indeed the Library of the Ancients.

Chris continued to read, unaware of the presence growing ever closer. The light of the lantern flickered. "Hrn?" He looked at it. "Oh! I forgot! I was down here to grab a tome for Yuan!" He said, picking up the lantern and putting the book he had been reading back in his bag. He turned around to face a large dog like beast.

"Eh?" Chris sighed, his eyes widening. "Uh oh..." He said. "E-easy..." He said to the dog.

It roared in response.

"... AHHHHHHHHHH!!" Chris turned and ran. Gotta get that book and fast! What was it!?

( just clearing this up, but Lenna, you and Blaze are using the same account, but are two diff people correct? )

Ri'Rin appeared in the skies near the Library, plummeting towards earth as she landed a thud echoed around. "Ouch." She said as she got up and dusted off. "But thats my first successful Teleportation. I should be happy." She said muttering to herself as she walked towards the entrance.

(Um, I would think so. It's just that Blaze's my fiancee, thus live together, thus too lazy to switch accounts... :D)

Hannah continued her trek towards the Library, finally feeling some peace linger in the air.

"Huh?" She quickly noticed some movement among a shadow, but decided to ignore it and walk past. She was fearless... she was feared. No reason to flee from shadows!

She scoffed. "What am I thinking?"

(OH! CONGRATULATIONS! :P)

As Ri"rin entered the Library she saw books in every direction. Tomes, Grimoires, and just random books abounded around her. "I Should find a guide in this place." She chuckled a bit.

~Chris~

Chris continued to run, huffing as he did. "Damn... This thing... Does not... Let up!" He panted. "I'm not a bone!" He shouted at the beast, jumping over a small stack of books. Augh! What was the name of the book master Yuan wanted... Chronos Compendium! Sector 6! He thought, still running, now towards sector 6 of the basement, the 'dog' still in hot pursuit.

Before long, he'd gotten to Sector 6 with all his limbs intact. He looked behind him, and the beast was nowhere to be seen. "Phew!" He exclaimed. "Lesse... Chronos Compendium... Ah, here it is!" He pulled a thick tome from a shelf, and suddenly, a shelf behind him collapsed with a crash. "Oh no..." Chris turned around to see the dog once again. "WHY ME!?" He shouted, bagging the book and running once again. "Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta... AGH!" He screamed as a floor gave way. He fell through to the next basement. "Ugh..." He looked up, but his vision was starting to fade. "Least I lost... That dog... Ugh..........." He mumbled as he fell unconscious.

~~~

Inside the library, one scholar was tapping his foot impatiently. "Where is that boy!?" He said to himself. "You two!" He said, not even turning from his book. "My aide has been in the basement for a while. Go fetch him, would you?" He said. He hadn't even looked at the two newcomers, but it was immediately obvious that he was talking to them.

"Why the hell should I?" Ri'Rin said rather loudly back at the man. "It's not like I work for you."

(Thank you! Been that way since August :D)

~Hannah~

"Hm? Must I? I'm only here on a vacation, not a mission. And..." She glanced towards the other person.

"I prefer to work alone." She groaned before heading to the basement, grasping the shaft of her weapon. THAT she would always carry around.

Reaching the basement, finally, she scanned the area, noticing it was eerily quiet. "Well, no sign of him here... In fact, probably grew too much of a chicken shit."

The man didn't even turn. "Look, if you want to do anything here, you have to go through me." The man said to Ri'Rin without facing her. "In fact, you have to get my express permission to so much as open a book here, so I suggest you hurry up and find my idiot of an aide... Or his remains." The man shut the book and moved to another. "... Hurry up, I don't have all day." He said, not once facing her.

~Chris~

Chris opened his eyes to an unforgiving purple sky with black clouds. He stood up and looked around. This place... Looks so familiar... He thought. Am I... dead? He saw people draped in rags, a certain emptiness in their eyes. He looked down, seeing a ground void of life. Simply dust. He took several steps, then saw a girl lying on the floor. "H-hey!" He ran over to her. "Are you okay?" He asked, looking at her, before he was suddenly overcome with fatigue, and collapsed.

He opened his eyes once again, seeing the dark shelves. "It was... A dream?" He asked, looking for his lantern.
