Description:

A long-form piece about the adventures, rifts, and connections that bring together various members of Thors Class VII. The prologue sets the stage; Part 1 shows the anchoring of connections that come together in celebration in Part 2; Part 3 begins with the scattering of companions whose ties hold strong as they reassemble themselves and take to the sky in Part 4. Part 5 shows just what this fabric can hold against and what it can achieve, and though in Part 6 the friends, lovers, and companions must move on, they make promises that they hope will hold in the coming days while they are apart. The epilogue traces a few of these promises into the future.

Notes:

One thing I really loved about Sen no Kiseki was that the characters were so interesting, and I always wondered about their relationships with each other. While playing the game, you're limited to learning about Rean's relationships with them, so it's wide open to speculate about the connections between the others. I had a lot of fun with that.

I tried to write this so you could still enjoy the piece even if you're less familiar with the game (especially if you begin with the Prologue). About three-quarters is novel/missing scenes that would otherwise occur during canon for Sen 1 and 2, with the exception of the epilogue which takes place just after Sen 2 and before Sen 3. The other one-quarter are novelized scenes from Sen 1 and 2. Note: this means there are more and more spoilers for the ending of Sen 1 as you near the end of Part 2, and for Sen 2 through Parts 3-6.
