Welcome to Gaia! ::

Summary: When Noria Blackwing traveled the Earth, she brought fear and destruction wherever she went. One city in particular, Fastus Heights, caught her eye. The city was wealthy, large and filled with hard-working citizens able to manufacture and produce countless products from precious jewelry, to magical items, to weapons to spellbooks. After assessing the city, Noira decided to take it for herself, using it as a resource and manufacturing hub that could provide both the raw materials and finished products she might need to further her goals.

Unfortunately, the city also had a great deal of heroes and the citizens took pride in honor and justice. For several years Noira and the Blackwings waged war against Fastus Heights, meeting surprisingly strong resistance from their military and their heroes. But eventually even the mighty city was unable to withstand the might of the Blackwings. The heroes died one by one and those who were willing to fight dwindled until there were none left who would stand up to them. That was the day Noira strode into the Mayor's Office and declared herself ruler of Fastus Heights, appointing her own officials to take care of the City in her absence.

For almost a generation Fastus Heights has been compliant, regaining its former wealth and economic strength as it labored to meet Noira's demands. However, several days ago Noira received a message from the city; they would no longer serve her or acknowledge her as their ruler. While Noira hasn't been thrown off by this, she still finds their rebellion unacceptable and has tasked the Blackwings with bringing the city back under her control. By any means necessary.

Blackwings Only!

Suddenly, another figure stepped through the crowd, standing in front of the Mayor. "Sorry, but I don't think so." He told the three of them. "My name is Blake Jetter and I'm a Hero sworn to defend this city until my dying breath." In the past, the city had had Heroes that stood up for them in times of need. When the Blackwings had last attacked this place, they had killed all of them. It seemed new ones had just recently been chosen. Before either of them could say anything, another figure stepped out of the crowd and next to Blake.



"My name is Faye Lucellia and I too am a Hero of Fastus Heights, sworn to defend it until my dying breath," she said, a determined expression on her face. "You see?" Said Mayor Lightheart with a smile. "We no longer desire to be a part of the Blackwings and we have brave Heroes who will defend us against the likes of you."

Blake drew both his swords, ready for a fight. "This is your last chance. Leave peacefully now and we'll let you go. The people of this city stand behind us, and we'll defeat you once and for all. Good prevails over evil." Faye put her hand on her rapier, though she didn't draw it yet. The people behind the two heroes nodded and murmured in agreement. "And we're not alone either," he added as he watched the three. Even as he was speaking, two more people stepped forwards



The girl gave a slight bow to the three of them. "Hello, my name is Lexi Lovelace. I'm sorry but we can't allow you to oppress these good people." The boy snapped his fingers and a small lightblue flame engulfed them. "Jacob Malone," he said, adding nothing else. He looked ready to fight as well.
