Story of a Lost Odyssey

 

For Those Who haven't heard of this game. This is a game created by the mistwalker company(Blue Dragon) for Xboc360 Exclusive made in 2007. It was voted the best RPG of the year with the soundtrack composed by our very own Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy Series, Blue Dragon). The gameplay relies on turn-based battle system and free roam around towns, villages, and dungeons with breathtaking landscape around the world map. If you haven't played this game, I strongly suggest that you play it now, because the most appealing aspect is it's story and plotline of an immortal protagonist. I have been working on it's fan-novel containing all his journey's and such, so here it is. Please let me know by comments if there's something I need to improve on or fix. This work is not by any means related to the mistwalker company, it's purely fan-based or hobby based if you like.

Chapter 1: BEGINNING OF A LOST JOURNEY
  
The ever so cloudy sky grew darker as the lone emptiness of the barren wasteland that’s surrounded by rocky cliffs, was overcame by a horde of advancing armored mobile carriages. The sound of silence then was broken by the sound of the bumping wheels and heating engines of the vehicles. Then the vehicles stops right in front of the opening of the surrounding cliffs which is stretching to the sky with a straight road in the middle that is overlooking a huge barren field. The field was filled with bodies of soldiers, broken swords, and stench of blood which would indicate a place of battle.

       The back of the vehicles opens and there came out groups of golden armored soldiers equipped with a lance which was longer than a grown man’s height. Marching out as they were facing across the field. In a distance was an army with black armors equipped with a giant broadsword and grey human-sized shields. The golden army charged towards the black army ready to strike, countless broadswords came pouring down from the sky, piercing the golden army soldier’s armor which was impaling them to the ground. The black army’s soldier retrieved their swords and readied themselves for a head on assault. The moment of battle on the battle field was started by the clash of swords, shields, and lances.
    The killing begun, slashing, stabbing, piercing, all kind of ways were used. War cries of both armies echoed loud enough even to resound throughout the battlefield. The golden soldiers which had fallen on the face of the battlefield, were instantly revived by the chanting of nearby group of magicians. Such was the scenes of the decisive battle,

yet there’s one soldier who stands out amongst the rest. wearing a light armor armed with a sharp blade, having wavy long hair rushes through hordes of black warriors. One by one, the black soldiers fell by his blade. they tried to assault the man, though in vain as he gracefully avoids the enemies blade by a show of great agility and speed. Then a tank appears with each side equipped with flamethrowers and the middle attached a giant blade. The man faced the tank with a fearless face, he dodged the fire, avoided the blade and aims for the heavy tank’s left and right unit. After a series of continuous attacks both the flamethrowers are deactivated and fell off. The blade fell down, seeing this as a perfect chance he ran and climbed the blade, then at the final moment he jumped and pierced the tank’s sensor unit. The tank, which was now destroyed, fell and exploded.
    Suddenly an eerie sound was heard, a great crimson shadow looms over the entire battlefield.

All the soldiers were in a state of confusion, they all stopped fighting at that moment. Then a huge meteor appears, it’s surface cracked huge fragments fell down onto the battlefield. From the crack, lava pours down endlessly, consuming all that stand in it’s way. Sea of lava occupied the battlefield, as quick as the soldiers panic, which're soaring endlessly accompanying the lava flow. The soldier just stands there dumbstruck as the explosions blow all of the soldiers away. A few moments later, the dark cloudy sky began to shed some of its light down the ash-worn plane. There stood the soldier, unscratched just walking aimlessly on top of the remains of what once was a battlefield. Countless corpses of soldiers, machines were lying on the battlefield, as the ashes rains down upon them.  He makes his way back, walking steadily while holding his sword. The dawn overlooking the cliffs shines brightly, signaling yet another day at the Highlands of Wohl.

well that's a preview of it. I've been working on other works as well. I just want to share the wonders of such story to everyone out there. I want to show that even beautiful stories exist within a video game, within a fantasy that's all based on reality.
