Tales of Sword, Song and Sorrow


Mirima and Lucide were born in Ishgard, to a beautiful duskwight elezen. Their mother, a lowborn humble weaver and a generous woman who was known to create the most beautifully crafted garments in the district. Her talent and beauty took the notice of a man of noble blood. A High born elezen, and heir to one of the lesser noble houses. Despite past and differences, in a short time the two fell in love and a night of passion led to the promise of an everlasting bond.

A Tale of Song and Sorrow


Lucide spent most of his early years in the Brumes of Ishgard, living under the roof of his uncle’s home. Though life's hardships proved to be a challenge for his uncle, Lucide on the other hand took it upon himself to help provide for both of them.
While out one day, looking for ways to make money, Lucide happened upon a scene that would change his outlook on life completely. A woman with hair of gold and eyes that shined like the stars, was playing an instrument for a crowd that gathered to listen. The song she played captivated, and moved him. And he could see the way it had moved the people around him too. Being used to the gloom of his hometown, witnessing the joy and merriment that day was like the Sun itself had broken through the dark clouded skies and a blanket of magical light shrouded the area of the Brumes if only for a while.
Since that day Lucide's goal was to first, learn the way of the Bard and second, become a traveler so that he too may touch the hearts and inspire people the same way that beautiful woman inspired him that day.
Lucide took on the job as an errand boy in exchange for obtaining an instrument of his own. He practiced day and night at the same place where he'd watch the woman play. One day a chance meeting brought the two face to face once again and Lucide was finally able to tell her how her music changed him that day. Moved by this young boys tale, the woman offered to train him, not only in the art of music but also in refinery and archery.
For the next few years, Lucide would grow into a strong and charming young adult. Though his uncle grew ever bitter each day to the point where, in a drunken rage his uncle let some secrets about his past come to light. Lucide learned that his mother bore two children the night before her life was taken. Lucide had a twin sister, and a father who had renounced his own children, for fear of ridicule and bringing shame upon his noble house. Enraged from having learned this, Lucide felt a deep shame and sorrow, wanting nothing more than to leave his home in Ishgard. With the help and blessing of his mentor, he was able to travel as far as Gridania to which he settled for a while to find work.During one of the festivals held in Gridania, Lucide met a small diverse band of traveling minstrels who, after listening to him play, invited Lucide to travel with them for a while. This definitely helped solve his means for transportation and he was also able to live out his first dream of bringing joy and inspiration to others with his music. Being blessed with charm and wit, It was with this group, that he was given the nickname ‘Prince’. A name that caught the fancy of many admires.Among these admirers was a Miq'ote warrior who enjoyed the thrill of adventure and battle. As well as the company of this handsome bards. He and Lucide shared several adventures together and bond they shared drew them ever closer over the course of a few years. It was then that the two wanted to make their bond eternal.
It was a week before their wedding day however when Arrow, his husband-to-be, was called to war. Not wanting to trouble his partner with sorrowful byes, Arrow left in secret. By the time Lucide realized he was gone it was too late. Not soon after his departure his fiance went MIA, never to be seen again. The only thing of his that was recovered, was his love's wedding band wrapped in a blood stained piece of cloth.
The loss of his first love dug him a pit of depression. He took on various jobs just to get by, while all the while wandering the lands in search of clues that could possibly lead him to what happened to his fiance, or even find his remains. But alas each lead found dead ends, and was only a distraction for the truth he already knew.A slow and creeping darkness was devouring his heart and all the light, hope and passion was beginning to leave him. Soon his fellow band members and friends left in turn to pursue dreams of their own. Lucide was left to some of his darkest of days, giving up on love and life, until a mysterious traveler found him, claiming that they needed his help for a very specific mission.Having nothing else to lose Lucide agreed to whatever this stranger had to offer, and set out on the hunting mission he was given alone. However, he soon learned that he was ultimately set up for failure the moment he set eyes on the creature he was asked to hunt down. The feral beast before him was far from recognizable at first, but in the heat of battle, it dawned on Lucide as he stared into what stood out the most of this creature. His big blue-green eyes unearthed a familiar warmth inside of him. His fiance who was presumably missing in battle, now here before him all bright eyed and void-touched, was inevitably lost to the darkness. Lucide fell to his knees in shock and horror, losing all the fight he had in him. Now easy prey to his former lover, the elezen would have succumbed to his demise had a warrior not intervened.
The warrior and her group of friends wore the beast down in battle, but with a heavy hand and heart, it was Lucide who dealt the finishing blow.
Soon after the battle, the warrior had revealed herself to be none other than his twin sister, who had claimed to find him with a gift her patron had blessed her with. Her name was Mirima. And she and her fellow Scions, as they called themselves, seemed to have gotten the same mission to take down the voidsent. Lucide once again felt the heavy weight of pain and loss, however, it was also on that day he’d gained something else he thought he had lost. His family.From that day on, Lucide and his sister Mirima became a duo force to be reckoned with. The two take on various jobs and missions together and on occasion, teaming up with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn to help rid the world of darkness and bring a small sense of peace to Eorza.Lucide’s days had become a bit brighter, and his cheerful demeanor was slowly returning now that he had someone he wanted to protect. And in those days, he also met with many friends whom he would also adopt into a family he had always longed for.Although he spreads love and friendship in abundance with everyone he meets, Lucide still struggled with letting true love settle and grow within his own heart. Though now surrounded with many friends, Lucide still felt a loneliness that shrouded his heart in a pit that he allowed no one to reach. That is until he met a kind and gentle hearted Elezen named Eramus and his son Harklan, whose aura seemingly matched up with his own. And who’s bright and cool green gaze seemed all too familiar to him. The two began to travel together, and in time, felt comfortable enough to share stories of their pasts. Soon kindred spirits found acceptance, comfort and warmth in each other's arms. A night together drew out a passion and desire the two had not felt for many moons. They became each other’s reason to fall in love again, the two now journey together hand and hand as they walk through the next chapter of their stories.

A Path Of Sword and Glory


Mirima was taken to Limsa where a roegadyn couple found her stored away on their trading boat one day. As unforturne had befell them, the two were not able to have a child of their own and so saw it as a sign and a blessing from the twelve that this baby was brought to them. They raised and took care of her like she was their own. As Mirima grew, she found a growing interest in being an advocate for dismantling the rising injustice in the world. One day she lost her father to whom they suspected to be a Garlean agent. Through her pain of loss, a distant voice called out to her, and she soon came into a power she had never felt before. With the urge to seek justice for her father, Mirima enlisted in Scion’s of the Seventh Dawn to help fight back against Garlean attacks.
Guided by this unexpected light, a series of events chanced a meeting with her twin brother Lucide and the two spent the next few months repairing the years they had lost when they were separated. When the subject of their biological parents arose, Mirima found that she wanted to know more about her true background.
For a time it seemed that her journey had only led her to find her brother, but it did not stop there, as a new chapter to her story would unfold. Even as she journeyed back to Ishgard to find answers about her parents, something, someone else was calling to her still, begging for her help and she could not ignore it for very long. Her impulse to assist those in need was always strong. For now, she had to place her current objective on the shelf. Though she would soon find herself becoming more involved with world matters than she intended. Nonetheless, with her head held up high she would bravely take up her sword to protect the peace of this world once again. Just as her father taught her.
...story yet to be unfold.
