The Beginning

The streets of Gran Ferra were peaceful this evening. A party has recently just ended and the streets were busy with people going home. One drunk white moogle with a red pom was flying towards the inn he was staying out. The moogle was to drunk to notice that he was being followed by extra shadows. The moogle greeted people as he passed them in the streets, waving merrily. A flick of the lights and suddenly the moogle was gone. Not a sound was made, and not a trace left, the extra shadows receding at the same time.

The woman in leather tapped her fingers along her leather covered arm impatiently, "These alleys, so dreary. Oh what do you think Locke dearie?"

A man stepped forward from the shadows and glares at the woman, "I think we are chasing a myth."

The woman reacts with a sidelong glance to Locke and reaches up to trace a nail across his cheek, "Oh dear sweet Locke, this is no myth." The muffled kupoing of a bagged moogle could be heard coming down one of the alleys.

The woman in leather reaches up and grabs the bag as it is handed to her. Opening it up she pulls out the moogle, "Hey let me kupo! I paid back the money I kupoed! I didn't take that last candy... kupo?" The moogle blinking to the woman holding him, "Who are you kupo?"

The woman holding the moogle smiles down to the moogle, "Oh dear Edward, I hear you came by some information. We can make this simple, give me what I want to know, and I will only torture you a little."

Edward pauses a moment, "Torture Kupo?" Then the moogle opens his mouth and chomps down onto one of the woman's fingers holding him. A screech of pain and Edward is let go, who takes to the air and starts to fly away.

Locke steps forward holding up a bow ready to take aim. "Locke dear, let him go. A brave little moogle, but I got what I want."

The bitten finger to her mouth and tasting her own blood, "Tasty, and we got what we needed." Reaching into the bag and pulling out an ancient leather bound book titled, "The Legend of the Artifact of Atomos." "Come dearie, back to the ship. Celese is making dinner."

The shadows were gone now, the alley empty the next moment. Edward Songkupo, the moogle, had escaped back into the night.

Meanwhile elsewhere...

King Kittemer sat in his throne chamber, drumming his fingers impatiently. An Aegyl walked in and offered a polite bow, "Your Majesty."

The king glanced up and nodded, "Dr. Baltemore, your late. I have a mission for you." Dr. Baltermore stiffens and sighs, "I was hoping it was for pleasantries." The man reaching over and taking a folder from and flipping it open. The king continues, "The Archadian special forces is moving after the listed legend. I am authorizing funding, you will get a team and track down the only lead we have, you the best we have for this Cecil. Hire some adventurers and tracking."

Cecil sighs as he flips through a few more pages, "So wait." The Aegyl glancing up, "So... the artifact of Atomos. We are talking world destruction here, and you are telling me." The Aegyl pausing a moment, "That to save the world, find the moogle?"
