11Biggs: Think it's still alive?
12Wedge: Probably_
13_judging from the urgency of our orders. <D24><EOP>
14Plus, they had us bring this sorceress with us.<D24>

28   Long ago, the War of the Magi
29       reduced the world to a
30  scorched wasteland, and magic
31       simply ceased to exist. <E$FF><OP$12>

34  1000 years have passed_ Iron,
35  gunpowder, and steam engines

40    But now there are some who
41    would enslave the world by

43      force known as [magic.] <E$FF><OP$12>
44
45[caption #8]
46          Can it be that those

190[caption #44]
191Old Man: The city's guards are pursuing her even as we speak.<EOP>
192This city has the strength to stand up to the Empire but won't use it.<EOP>
193Even so, they're too stubbornly independent to join forces with our underground resistance movement, the Returners, either_<EOP>
194I tried to explain that the Empire enslaved the girl, but they won't listen!

7351<A7>: This is_
7352<D>_the village of the Magi_
7353
7354[caption #2011]
7355<A7>: Long ago humans used Magicite to gain magical powers. They came to be known as Magi.

7358<A1>: But I thought they perished centuries ago_
7359
7360[caption #2013]
7361<A7>: After the War of the Magi, the espers fled to their new world behind the Sealed Gate.<EOP>
7362They wished to live peacefully, without fear of being used by humans. They left us here to fend for ourselves_<EOP>
7363But we were feared by normal people. Everyone still felt the misery of that war_
7364
7365[caption #2014]
7366<A7>: And so they sent people to hunt us down like animals. There weren't even any trials_<EOP>
7367<A0>: Even though the only difference was that you could use magic_?
7368
7369[caption #2015]
7370<A7>: A few Magi escaped and found their way here. They were our ancestors.<EOP>
7371Our power of magic thinned through the bloodlines over time, but some of it remains.

7394<A7>: Those mountains have powerful magical properties.<EOP>
7395They say the espers consider it holy ground_

7434[caption #2032]
7435The birth of magic_<EOP>
7436Three gods were banished here. In time they began quarreling, which led to an all-out war.<EOP>
7437Those unlucky humans who got in the way were transformed into espers, and used as living war machines_
7438
7439[caption #2033]
7440<A1>: So they're stone. Faint letters are carved on the back of them_
7441
7442[caption #2034]
7443<A1>: Say, old man, what exactly is the Warring Triad?
7444
7445[caption #2035]
7446<A7>: According to legend, long ago the three gods brought the power of magic into this world.<EOP>
7447<A1>: So, they're the gods of magic, then?
7448<A7>: You could say that.
7449
7450[caption #2036]
7451<A0>: I can feel their power_<EOP>
7452<A7>: The Warring Triad are the source of all magic_ meaning they also created the espers.<EOP>
7453It's said that the espers made images of their creators, and placed them in holy ground.<EOP>
7454This must be it!!
7455They represent power beyond all comprehension_
7456
7457[caption #2037]
7458<A0>: Our espers no doubt came to this island to bask in all this magical power!
7459
7460[caption #2038]
7461After centuries of fighting one another, the three realized they accomplished nothing.<EOP>
7462In a rare moment of mutual clarity, they agreed to seal themselves away from the world.<EOP>
7463With their last ounce of energy, they gave the espers back their own free will_ <EOP>
7464 _and then transformed themselves into stone. <EOP>
7465Their only request was that the espers keep them sealed away for all eternity.
7466
7467[caption #2039]
7468The espers created these statues as a symbol of their vow to let the Warring Triad sleep in peace.<EOP>
7469The espers have sworn to keep the gods' power from being abused.
7470
7471[caption #2040]
7472<A1>: Phew_what a story.<EOP>
7473<A0>: If the espers were attracted here by these statues, they must be around here somewhere!
7474
7475[caption #2041]
7476<A1>: Say, old timer, what happened to the Warring Triad?<EOP>
7477<A7>: Legend has it that they're hidden somewhere beyond the reach of humans.<EOP>
7478I'd say they're beyond the Sealed Gate_
7479
