September 18th, OE 102
Citadel City, Perindor
Perindor Citadel Square
It was a rather quiet day, though windy at the least. Dark clouds hung overhead, blocking out the sun from shining on the city. The white bricks that formed the entirety of the Citadel’s square looked gray in tone, with several, similarly-colored columns lining the circumference of the area. The city-workers had spent the past few months working on designing this area, for the idea Heidel had in methods to eliminate the Giants from Crescentia. It was something never done before, perhaps only talked about as if a rumor or legend, but such words were likely false; Heidel had lived long enough to know that.
And yet, perhaps she was crazy, but it seemed like it could work. With the power of SeiOhKi, such a technique maybe wasn’t that crazy to pull off. That said, there was only one way to find out.
Towering at one end of the square, SeiOhKi stood majestically, its arms placed on the grip of Colbrand, which was placed in the ground at its feet, the lengthy red cape flowing off its shoulders and cascading down to the ground. Its single, visible, green eye looked down upon the square, as if waiting. Lined behind each Pillar, the newest machines of the Crescentian Kingdom stood, their large and bulky forms hulking over the square, yet still dwarfed by SeiOhKi.
From between SeiOhKi's legs, Heidel walked forward, with her ten knights in tow, all walking in a v-formation. In Heidel’s arms, the Relic weapon Bahamut was gripped in her hands, a solemn look on her face. As they reached the perimeter of the square, the ten knights spread out, each standing in front of a column, and Heidel standing at the base of SeiOhKi.
“Let us begin.”
Heidel spoke.
“SeiOhKi! Heed my call! Lend me your strength! The strength to reach across the dimensions, across time and space and bring forth allies that will aid us in our plight!”
As if responding to her voice, the Green Gem in the torso of the machine began to glow faintly, as the Aquarius reactor woke from its slumber. Heidel's eyes grew dull, and her voice cold. The area began to glow, as golden particles seemingly began to rise from the ground, ascending higher and higher, up to the sky and into the clouds. Then as if an explosion in the atmosphere occured, the clouds were forcibly parted, allowing the sun to peer through directly overhead.
“To those who heed us, If it is within my power, I shall grant you the wish that you desire. For both yours and ours’, our worlds are in great peril, and only with our power combined do we dare stand a chance against the forces that are to come.”
The particles grew denser and denser, before forming an entire pillar of golden light that pierced the heavens and radiated the Citadel’s square.
“SeiOhKi! Bring forth our allies! Begin Translocation!”
