You who are silvering the sands of the desert

Prologue

It has been said since the dark ages that the king dynasty Raithwall was chosen by the gods to unify under one kingdom the peoples of Ivalice. The Gods gave him the Sword of the Kings and three fragments of magility to govern in peace.

But this story was not completely told, one part was kept hidden.

The story tells that after the years of conquest King Raithwall, had conquered immense territories from Valendia all'Oldaria, unified under the name of the Galtean alliance. He reigned with justice and wisdom and everywhere he was loved and respected.

If problems arose, the king himself would come to solve them.

During his reign it happened that, one day, the king was fired by a monster that from time to time attacked passers by and villages have borders of the territories of Valendia.

The king informed of this, decided to leave personally to defeat this beast.

Before leaving he said that he would return within 10 days and what time he had not returned to send a patrol of soldiers to his rescue.

The king left and ten ten passed in a hurry ... another day passed and everyone began to fear that something happened to his Majesty.

The search teams sent to his rescue did not lead to anything, the king seemed to have disappeared into thin air ... another day came and the soldiers of another research group were ready to leave.

When they suddenly saw, their king return in perfect health, without the shadow of a scratch.

His subjects and the whole court asked him astonished and incredulous, what had happened to him ... the king told them, that during the clash with the terrible beast, he was about to have the worst when praying the Gods to help him ... he was torn from the battle and found himself in front of them-

He was so amazed at that event, which had something so miraculous, that Raithwall himself told how the gods had protected him.

Seeing how much he was doing for his people, and how well he had brought, the Gods decided to reward him once again, giving him the gift of the cocoon.

The gods then entrusted him with a cocoon that he and his descendants would have to defend and protect until he hatched.

The sovereign then asked what contained that cocoon so important, the gods told him that it contained a unique being in its kind, the appearance of a huma and the faculties of a god.

The being that would be born of that cocoon at the right time would one day change the destiny of that world.

Bringing luster and glory to his family. It would have been living proof of the greatness of the gods.

The king was honored by that position, which he promised in front of the Gods to keep this gift.

When the king returned to the palace he told that story only to a few people, deciding to keep this news so hidden except for the heir to the throne and the Kiltian priests.

No one else except these would have known about the existence of the cocoon.

The cocoon was thus brought to the temple and placed in a large room decorated until it was hatched. But the cocoon remained there for so long, until it was almost forgotten and with it its history of which existence knew only the king and his descendant.

The centuries passed, the kings succeeded one after the other, but the cocoon remained there in its stationary place ... for a long time in mind ...
