Facing Difficulties

The iron-fisted rule of Emperor Taseki had deprived the population of even their most fundamental rights.

If the Espers did not pledge their allegiance, they were banished to a place where the struggle for survival was part of everyday life.

But this hardship had also created bonds among these Espers, who had gradually formed a community that became increasingly capable of adapting despite the difficulties.

It was under these conditions that Chago, a young Fire Esper, was born.

Having known nothing but a daily life where one had to struggle simply to survive, he had not realized that he had developed an unbreakable will.

He had a talent for lightening the atmosphere with his antics, even in the most serious situations, and had gradually become the ray of hope that everyone sought to protect.

“We have now succeeded in establishing a camp strong enough to begin thinking about what comes next…” whispered Mako, the leader of the rebellion.

Through her bravery and leadership, Mako was respected by all. Even though she was neither the most powerful nor the most gifted in the use of magic, she had been unanimously chosen to lead the resistance movement.
