When the Chaos War ended, a moment of pure stillness was felt by all the Espers who had fought endlessly for years upon years.

Even though the StarDust had finally been discovered, an entire world still needed to be rebuilt… Just the thought of such a colossal task brought feelings of hopelessness and inaction.
