Paerietail’s Shards:
17 year old Lucinda Sapientiam has been recently orphaned when her parents died in a house fire. Living in 1800s London, Lucinda has to be transferred to an orphanage. There her life is changed one night when a jewel falls from the sky, transporting her to the parallel world, AliusAnima.
Lucinda finds the powerless kitsune, Reflection and forms a “Kyubi Contract”. This causes Reflection to have a sub conscious connection to Lucinda. It is later shown that this connection allows Reflection to draw off Lucinda’s inner magic, so Reflection can temporally fight.
Lucinda wants to find her a way back to her world and together, the two try to discover the way. This leads them to travel around AliusAnima and have many encounters alone the way.
Soon enough, they meet up with the ghost of a girl that committed suicide in Lucinda’s world. She goes by the alias, Lilium. Despite being a ghost, she can still bleed when she gets hurt, but this blood has healing properties to whomever ingests the blood. Lilium becomes a part of their group after a chance encounter with Suzaku, the slavery driving Phoenix.
Much later, they meet an old friend of Lilium, whom she appears to have been searching for. As another ghost of a suicide victim, the boy goes by the alias, Sanglius. As if the opposite of Lilium, Sanglius only kills with a transforming sword instead of Lilium’s healing blood. Even though Lilium was eager to join the group, Sanglius is skeptical of the girls. After an unheard chat between Lilium and Sanglius that is never known, Sanglius joins the group.
Lucinda learns a girl in her dreams, Soyokaze, that AliusAnima is an Apocalypticism world and this belief is causing the creatures to head to their own Apocalypse. She explains that all life is connected and its roots can cross worlds. The world Lucinda comes from is connected to AliusAnima though its nature. The sin that is committed by the creatures of AliusAnima and the sin that is committed by humans from Lucinda’s world is causing the line between the world to thin. If the line is broken, then both worlds will collapse upon each other because of the laws of Time and Space. In the end reality will cease to exist and time will come to a stand still. The Apocalypse will happen.
Now Lucinda’s goal has changed. She will now try to stop the end from coming, despite all the doubt within the group. They have more run in’s with Suzaku including one the leaves Reflection blind in her right eye. Eventually they are able to kill him and as he dies, he tells them the main reason why the Apocalypse is coming to pass: Someone is trying to destroy the line on purpose.
He explains to them who that someone is… Lucinda! Unfortunately, Lilium and Sanglius have the power to know when someone is lying and Suzaku was not lying. Lucinda is truly the one trying to bring the Apocalypse!
Now with her former friends trying to kill her, Lucinda is all alone to try and find the truth. This leads her to discover many disturbing things about her past and how she is connected to AliusAnima. She also discovers that Soyokaze is in fact her doppelganger, a clone that has the opposite personality and wants something from her.
In the final battle, all is explained. Soyokaze wants the magic inside Lucinda that was formally Reflection’s. Soyokaze killed Reflection’s tribe and stole the magic. But Soyokaze could not contain the kitsune’s magic and it was sent to her other self, Lucinda. The magic has been dormant inside Lucinda her whole life and that is the reason why she was able to cross the line to AliusAnima. Now to get the magic, Soyokaze wants to kill Lucinda, but originally had to cross to the other world. All this time, Soyokaze was the one trying to destroy the line to get the magic.
With Lucinda finding her way to AliusAnima, it just made Soyokaze’s work easier. Looking exactly like Lucinda, Soyokaze framed her of being the Apocalypse bringer and had planned to kill her.
After hearing that, the group made up with Lucinda having been tricked by the lie and now all were going to fight Soyokaze. In the battle, Reflection is killed and in a fit of insane rage, Lucinda slashes Soyokaze to pieces. But as Soyokaze dies, she explains that when one doppelganger dies then the other one must die too.
In a last resort, Reflection transfers her kitsune identity to Lucinda in hopes that she would no longer be Lucinda. In so, Reflection’s soul goes into Lucinda, changing Lucinda into a kitsune. Now, she wouldn’t die and they could be together forever.
Right after, a hole appears in which Lilium and Sanglius start to head towards. Not saying anything back, they hang their heads down as if they are saying an unheard goodbye.
In a flashback we are shown that in fact Lilium and Sanglius are actually the souls of Rika and Rolo, having become Shinji’s dimensional helpers. This was another mission the two were sent on because only they could go to this dimension. They were to help find peace in this world and then leave. That was the job of any dimension traveler.
And thus, they left with the help of Shinji’s magic, leaving Lucinda alone. But now she was not alone. Taking on the new name, Parallax, she, as a silver kitsune, would no longer want what she thought. She was not going back to her world, for now she found out that AliusAnima was the loving home she had wanted her whole life and nothing would change that. Now she wanders the world, enjoying life and the land she helped to change for the better…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yes, she would enjoy it for the rest of time. For in fact all this was a dream. Lucinda was in fact in a coma since the fire and all it has just been a coma induced dream. Her files say that she probably won’t ever wake up now. But at least now, in her own world, Lucinda can live the rest of her life and never have to worry about awaking from her dream. In a bitter sense, this was the one time in Lucinda’s life she ever felt pure happiness. And now she will have it forever…
