Ah, Alrest… A place both beautiful and depressing. Ever since Earth sunk under the sea of clouds, survivors had to struggle to find good land.

I’m happy to meet you.” You notice that her appearance beared a striking resemblance to her sword, though her outfit and armor were quite.. Revealing. A green cross-shaped core rested in between her chest, scarfs fluttering in the soft wind. The blade itself was now somehow in your dominant hand, ready to be used. You… A Driver…?
