Mid-canon Stories

After fifty years, the candle that blessed the Madrigals has gone out. The villagers are helping them to build a new home, but that's not all that needs to be done. The family is now lost without their powers, and they need to know: Who am I without magic? Mirabel never had magic, but she does have a gift, and, with help from her tío Bruno, it's time she uses it to rebuild her family.

Things go south after a brutal battle in a nearby dungeon and Agnea can't help but worry. Was there really nothing else she could have done to prevent this? How could she be so useless? This story takes place mid-journey. Likely after most characters' Chapter 2 This fanfic uses characters from Octopath Traveler II. I do not claim to own these characters.

Jihi Kimari wasn't always a wallflower. She'd always been shy, quiet, but never so meek that she'd flinch when someone met her eyes. Not until now. Not until after her grandfather, one of the only two people ever truly happy she existed, died, leaving a rift in her heart so deep she could barely breathe, let alone fight to move forward. With her family's rejection closing in, she's never felt more alone. Transferred to Odachi High, Jihi isn't sure she even wants to make friends again after how disastrously that ended at her last school. All she wants is to keep her head down, survive, and one day escape her family's grasp. But fate, and one eventful train ride, have other plans. Because a certain "Little Demon" has decided that Jihi Kimari's story isn't over yet.
