{ NOTE }
When we change locations I will post a new blurb on where we are each time. Just as an update.
Red dots are locations we will visit and the green dotted line is the route we will be taking.
{ KILIKA }
Kilika is an island of the southern coast of Spira. The island consists of a small port and village, a large jungle and a Temple of Yevon. It is famous for being the home of High Summoner Ohalland and the Kilika Beasts, the local blitzball team. Kilika Temple is located on the far side of the forest north of the village. It is built atop a fire mountain and the Fire-elemental aeon Ifrit can be obtained here. The fire of the temple changes color depending on whether there is a summoner praying inside, or if the temple is being visited by priests and Yevonites. The Fayth of this temple is a former Crusader.

{ A Bit of a Back Story }
It was just over ten years ago when High Summoner, Lord Crayness Defeated Sin and brought about the Calm once again. The people of Spira rejoiced at his brave sacrifice for they were safe from Sin's deadly attacks once again. And finally the world of Spira was safe and at peace for another decade. But as that decade came to a close, the fear within people's hearts grew. Every day was one more day nearer to the return of Sin and the curse brought down upon them by the mistakes of their ancestors who lived freely within Spira. They had relied too heavily upon Machina, and their punishment was Sin.The deadly creature could be destroyed by a Summoner who had completed their pilgrimage. A Summoner must venture throughout Spira to gain the powers of each Aeon. With the gathered strength of the Aeons, a Summoner could call upon the Final Aeon. The Final Aeon is created by a sacrifice of one of the Summoner's Guardians. The Final Aeon has the ability to pierce through Sin's thick armour and temporarily destroy the horrible creature. After the Final Summoning, the Aeon is taken over by Sin's fleeting spirit and kills the Summoner. It takes Sin a decade to rebuild itself, in that time the people of Spira enjoy a great peace called the Calm. now that decade is up, peace is gone and Sin has returned. The world of Spira prays every day for one to come along, one who can defeat Sin once again.
{ Rina Fae }
Last night Rina had been up late, wandering the docks of Kilika. It was her last night as an Apprentice Summoner and the village of Kilika had thrown a bit of a party, a sort of send off for the young Summoner. She had received gifts from the people, the same people she had known all of her life. When the party came to an end, Rina went back to the small hut she called home for the last time. She laid in bed, listening soothing noise of the waves against the docks. This would be the last time she'd be able to do this, just relax and enjoy the moment. But it was her choice, she didn't want people to suffer anymore. She only wished that defeating Sin was more permanent. These thoughts kept circling around in Rina's head until she knew that sleep just wasn't happening tonight. So she snuck out and decided to take a little walk until she could quiet her mind a bit. It wasn't until the sun peeked over the horizon that Rina found her way back to her home and finally got a bit of sleep.She woke a few hours later to someone shaking her awake, "Go away." Rina grumbled and pulled a thin blanket over head to block out the bright sunlight that streamed in through her window.
"There is no time for this Rina. You have to head to the temple soon, you need to get up and get ready. " It was Rina's mother who shook her until she was sitting up in bed.
"Why does it have to be so bright?" Rina rubbed the sleep from her eyes as her mother sat down beside her. Rina's mother was always kind of distant while she was growing up. Not that her mother hadn't show her love throughout the years, she just showed it in different ways. This morning was different though, her mother pulled her into a tight hug, the kind that squeezed the air from your lungs. Although quick, the hug was a rare thing and brought Rina back to reality and away from the sleep that clung to her mind.
Rina looked at her mother, there were tears in her eyes. "Now I want you to be strong Rina, I want you to show all of Spira how strong you are." Her mother wiped the tears from her eyes and got up from the bed to collect Rina's bag. "You were always so quiet when you were little, always hiding yourself in the temple libraries. I knew you were going to join the church in some way. You were always quoting Yevon Scripture at the dinner table."
"Mother, I-" Rina could feel the tears starting to form.
"I want you to know that I am proud of you, proud of the woman you've become. You are smart and strong and good, and I know you will do great things." Her mother handed her her traveling bag. "Now you get ready and don't forget, I love you Rina." With a kiss to the forehead, Rina's mother left her small room.
Rina stood there, in all of her years, she couldn't remember a time when her mother had said so much... Ever since before she could remember... She took a moment to collect herself, strengthening herself for what was to come.
About an hour later, Rina was ready to go. Her disheveled hair was fixed and she was dressed. She was tired though, her late night adventure was catching up to her, but if she was lucky, she'd get a good night's sleep tonight before the boat to Besaid arrived tomorrow morning.
With the staff that the Priests had gifted her, she made her way to the temple where she would meet up with her friends and guardians and begin her Pilgrimage.
