Ivalice - Where Dreams Come True
“It was like any other day...”
An Ancient Book...
Long before Noah built his ark, the tales tell of an ancient land called Kiltia...
A world where swords and sorcery reigned.
Its learning and power were swept away in the great flood, but one clue to its
secrets remained: an ancient book known as the Gran Grimoire, hidden
in darkness by the powers that once were.
It is not certain how many copies of the book still exist, but it is said that whoever
should hold one holds the power to change the world.
Many lived out their days searching the world for surviving copies,
But none were ever found.
It was an illusion, they said. A myth- but one worth dying for.
Intro: Real Life
“I wish we could meet each other and search for adventures...”
-“Adventures? *lol* I don’t think there’s a way to have a real adventure...
but there would be one if Earth was a world like in a fantasy game....”
-“Yeah, it would be great. I would ride a dragon...”
-“And I would try to catch a Chocobo!”
-“My dragon would eat your chocobo for breakfast! ...just kidding.
I'd say that he could eat all Chocobos, except yours.”
-“Then I would get a really fat Chocobo! I mean really fat!”
-“....but if it was that fat you couldn’t ride it anymore....!”
-“o_0...I guess you’re right....but what would we eat on our adventure,
I don’t think we would find a microwave somewhere in a fantasy world?! *lol*”
-“We'd hunt for our food, and we'd make a fire, and cook it.
If we were unable to catch an animal, then we'd search for nearby fruits, vegetables, or nuts.“
- “*sigh* Too bad the real world isn’t like that....”
- “Damn...the bell just rang I hope I can talk to you later...*hugs and kisses* I’ll miss you ...Bye...”
- “Bye. *hugs and kisses* I’ll miss you too....”
The bell rang, school was over... I stood up and left the classroom looking back at the computer I had been sitting in front of.
A few weeks ago I would have been happy about that.
I still felt relaxed when I finally was able to leave the in winter too cold rooms of my school,
but I always had to leave someone important to me when I walked out of the media-center.
It had been snowing for weeks in St.Ivalice, but it was winter and it was normal.
St.Ivalice, the city I had been living in; it was more a big village though; was the same everyday.
And like everyday the younger pupils for my school were having a snowball fight; a few kids were going down on Mewt.
Their leader was a guy called Guiness, he and his friends, Lyle and Colin, never liked Mewt very much.
I’d never seen them being nice to him, but it didn’t matter, to me they were just a bunch of show-offs.
Mewt was a 13 year old boy who always had a teddy with him,
even if this bear was one of the reasons Guiness and his gang were laughing at him.
I heard he had lost his mother a few years ago, since that he had been quiet and others started to be mean to him,
because he never really talked to them.
I usually kept out of these snowball fights, but it was getting too serious that time.
A new kid, Marche, and one of the girls, Ritz, were helping him out, and so did I.
It was easy to hit Guiness’ guys, because they were all focusing on Mewt.
I bowed and formed a snowball, I slowly walked behind them, and then BANG!
My snowball hit Lyle’s back and he turned aroung quickly, and so did the others.
‘That should give Mewt a little break...’ I thought while I formed another snowball,
this time I wanted to hit Guiness, but before I could do so I heard Mewt cry out for a short moment.
Marche ran over to him. “Are you okay?...Mewt! You’re forehead is bleeding...”
“There was a stone in the snowball.” I walked over to them and stood in front of the bleeding boy.
A few other snowballs came flying, at first I wanted to dodge, but then I remembered the boy and just stood there being hit.
“More stones?!”, I asked angrily after they had stopped for a short moment.
“We didn’t throw any stoooooones!”, Lyle smiled and it was hard not to notice that he was lying.
“First you throw stones and now you’re lying? That’s really brave Lyle!” Ritz walked towards him.
She looked as if she was going to raise his fists and let them crush down on that cowards face.
Of course she didn’t do that, but I hoped she would.
“What are you talking about! You’re the one lying to everyone;
I mean we all know that your hair isn’t really pink.
It’s white as my grandfathers!”, Colin laughed and bowed as if he was an old man.
“Behave kids!”, Mr Leslaie said as he entered the schoolyard.
He looked at Guiness’ gang angry.
“Guiness, Colin, Lyle, I want to talk about this, go inside and wait for me!
...Are you alright, Mewt?”, he asked as he kneeled in front of the boy. “Does it hurt very much?”
“Uhm... It’s okay, I am alright.” “Are you sure...and how are you, Fei?”, Mr Leslaie then asked me.
“Yeah, I was lucky; they didn’t hit me on the head...”
“Good to hear that! Mewt, Ritz,...”, he nodded looking at each of us and smiled.
“...Marche, Fei, you can go home now, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”
A few minutes later the four of us were walking home together,
Mewt said something about a bookstore that had opened a few days ago, it was called ‘Fantasy Box’.
“They also sell comics and game walkthroughs there.
The people working there were very nice to me when I got there yesterday, but it’s hard to find it.”
Mewt said more about it as he showed us the way to the shop.
“I haven’t found anything that really caught my interest so far,
and they don’t seem to open until 9:15 p.m., but I definetly like it.”
The building the shop was in was old and looked as if it could fall down any minute,
but something about it was special, though I couldn’t describe what exactly it was.
I knew I had to get into that shop, something seemed to be waiting for me.
***** *****
“Fei! You’ve been online long enough, I have to work!”
“Okay Mom...”, I sighed as I wrote my last message to “her”
“Sorry, I have to go...my mom has to work, I would stay on longer,
but she has been busy for the last few days.
Good Night, *hugs and kisses* I hope we can talk tomorrow.
I’ll go to the shop I told you about now. See you soon.”
***** *****
The “Fantasy Box” was a new shop, but there was already dust and webs built by spiders everywhere.
Only a few lights lit up the rooms, but it didn’t seem to be dark.
“Can I help you?”, a young; quite attractive; woman asked me smiling.
I turned around quickly, because I hadn’t noticed that there was someone in the room when I entered and replied surprised:
“N...No I am just looking around.”
I had a weird feeling about the place, everything seemed to have something magical about it:
The old chairs standing next to a wall on which a dirty mirror was hanging just like the shelves holding the books that were sold there.
I took a closer look at the mirror:
It looked as if someone was standing right next to me!
“Who a-“, I began as I turned around quickly expecting someone to be behind me.
But I only saw another row of old books and the dust falling down. I suggested that it was just my mind playing tricks on me,
but when I looked at the glass again the person was there again.
I didn’t turn around this time, whatever it was, it should have scared me,
making me think of ghosts or other weird things, but it felt familiar.
“Is there a problem? Have you found something interesting?”, the women asked as she came walking towards me.
I shook my head still confused.
When I looked at the mirror again the person had dissapeared and I was pretty sure that it had just been my imagination.
A book seemed to be missing in the shelf behind me.
There was nearly no dust where it should have been standing,
so I suggested that someone had already bought it before I entered the shop and decided to check the other books.
They had names like “Lost Summons”, “Fantasy Realms – Everything You Have To Know”,
“How To Survive In A Fantasy World? – Basics” or “Cook Your Kuponut – 1000 Tasty Things For Your Moogle”.
But only one book really caught my interest:
“Gran Grimoire"
