In X702, a peaceful castle had been invaded by a kingdom across a valley of mountains, ruled by a king who desired power and to rule the world. When the "evil king" had started to invade across the mountains, he started to created fused humans, also known as "Chimeras". This word is known in our present time, but of course, this side of the mountain was calm and peaceful, so they wouldn't have known of these horrid creatures. he king and queen of the peaceful castle, had sent troops of soldiers, only for them to return as those Chimeras, no one has ever been able to seperate the Chimeras. Once they've fused, they'll never be able to return to normal. That is... until one girl and her friends show up to defeat the so-called "evil king".
DING... DING...
A bell had rung from the castle, hearable by all of the country. "What's this? A message of despair?" A traveller who was sitting in the Pub, looking at the door where the bell noise had revertibrated. The bartender was cleaning cups, "Apparently so, creatures have been coming from the mountains, so King Revik and Queen Namine have begun to send their troops, only to get no reports." "Hm.. Certainly this is a pressing matter." The traveller spoke, thinking quietly as he took a drink of his beer. "I've heard a story from my mother once, it seemed like a time like this, where in a peaceful kingdom, many disgusting and dark creatures came from over a mountain. The kingdom was saved by a Pure Maiden and others." The traveller looked over at the older bartender, interested into listening to the story. "Ah, I shouldn't bore you good sir with a mere tale." "No, no. You can continue, this sounds quite interesting to me!" The younger traveller stated, smiling. The bartender then started, "Alright then. Listen well, because this story is quite the adventure!"
"Long, long ago, from a kingdom on the darker side of the mountains, deformed creatures had started to appear all 'round our country of Talvirea. Our beloved King and Queen had begun calling them 'the sins of the world' and 'devils from the shadows', though, that's not what they really were. They were our own people, mixed together and fused into disgusting creatures. One day, after days and days of attempts to hold our enemies back and to try and restore or beloved ones, a foreign maiden from across the ocean had visited our country." The bartender started to tell the tale, cleaning a cup while speaking. "She had encountered one of those monsters, and equipped with a sword, she had slain them." The traveller spoke up softly, "Wouldn't that have killed them then?" "Not this time. This maiden was blessed to us with a strange ability to seperate the beings into their old forms. Before long, she was called upon by the King and Queen to come to the capital of Altaria."
--------------------
The young maiden stood in front of the king and queen she was summoned by, bowing down. "It is an honor to meet your highnesses. Is there a reason you have called upon me?" She asked, standing up, her intent violet colored eyes looking up at the king and queen. The King had spoken first, "One of our soliders have reported that you have the ability to seperate those creatures from the mountains." "We plead for help, young maiden." The Queen had said, in which the maiden responded. "If it is to not cause anymore trouble to you, then I shall do all that I can." "Thank you, maiden, we shall cheer for your accomplishment." The King spoke. "Please, call me Violet."
--------------------
The elder bartender continued, the traveller especially wanting to know what would happen next. "The young maiden had soon set out on her quest, gathering allies to be prepared as well. She made her way across the mountain with her fellow adventurers and finally found the castle where the evil king had dwelled. The battle was truly hard, but with all of their vigor and faith in each other, they were able to defeat the evil king, the castle soon ending up in ruins. With no more creatures coming, all's well, ends well." The bartender finished, the traveller greatly amused by the story. "Does that maiden still live to this day?" He asked.
The elder man responded, "Sadly, no. The story is said to be just a myth and a little kiddie story."
"Well, there could be someone that can help, the possiblities are endless."
"True! True! But who could be the one?..."

Oh.. the voices.. they're fading away again. What does this mean?
