  Summary

  The Villain and The Eminence in Shadow. Both vital aspects of the story. But every such story would be incomplete without its Hero.
  This is the story of the Kagenou siblings learning of each others' truths. For Claire, it's the truth of her brother's identity. For Cid, it's learning that his game was more real than he ever thought.

  Ever wanting to help her brother, Claire dons the mantle of Pandora, She Who Brings Calamity to the Shadows, to be Cid's hand in the Light. The Hero in his game of Shadows. Backed by a small set of allies, and with her brother's puppet strings around her, she will do whatever she must to annihilate the Cult of Diablos, and help Cid realize his dream. Whatever it takes.
