02. Magic City Gariland . 1 . 2 . 3 ... [Text 'only']
* - comment inside. [Sorry for ugly English]
The Royal Academy of Magic, which produced war heroes like the Wizard Elidibs.
[8 cadets in the room.]Delita's name appears for the first time a year before the Lion War broke out. Many soldiers who returned from the war, had no jobs, little money, and even less loyalty to the crown. Many became thieves and rebels plotting rebellion against the royal family. At that time robbery and murder were commonplace in Ivalice. Many heroes and wizards came out of there. And Gariland was no exception either. _____________________ CHAPTER 1 THE MEAGER Military Academy's AuditoriumI heard another wagon bound for Igros was attacked.
Must have been the Death Corps...
Something's starting... Know anything, Delita?
No... but I can guess.
You have a mission! As you know, barbarians are rapidly increasing here in Gallione*. The traitorous Death Corps detest the royal family. We cannot overlook them. We will begin exterminating these traitors. By order of our Master. Larg's Knights stationed at Igros Castle and many either groups will participate. Your duty is to support the flank. Specifically, you'll go to Igros and help guard it. [Female knight comes in, goes to male knight, whispers to him and goes outside.]
2.1. Magic City Gariland - Street
[Ramza, Delita & 4 cadets confronts 5 enemies in the street.]What's this? Just a bunch of kids! What luck! OK, all we have to do is kill these kids! Then, we can escape! Don't you worry! We'll kill every one of you! Conditions for Winning: Defeat all enemies!
2.2. Gariland Magic City - Walk
Bar Shop Soldier office
[Gariland->Bar]Welcome. Come in and relax. >> Rumor Leave bar [Gariland->Bar->Rumor]
Robberies are on the rise in various areas and Gallione
is no exception. Wagon hijackings and abductions are
rampant. Now a group of former criminals and mercenaries,
called the "Death Corps", have been making the most
trouble for the Hokuten.
[Gariland->Bar->Rumor->The King Omdoria]
There is great concern over King Omdoria*, who collapsed
at Prince Orinas birthday celebration. The Board of
Chamberlains reported his fever has subsided, but he'll
take 3 weeks to recover. It will be several months before
he can make any public appearances. But since most public
policy is made by Queen Ruvelia, no turmoil is expected.
[Gariland->Bar->Rumor->The Fifty Year War]
A war that caused terror for nearly 50 years between
Ivalice and Ordalia, known as the "Fifty Year War".
The War was ignited when King Diwanu died without naming a successor. The throne was succeeded by Diwanu's brother, Valowa, but Denamunda of Ivalice, declared war.
This was only an excuse... the real reason was because of... Zelamonia, a territory of Ivalice running along the Ordalian border. It was once independent*, but was annexed over a century ago, after an invasion. Ivalice supported Ordalia, but the result was failure. Unrest among the Nobles and in the cities of Zelamonia, along with Ordalia's rule, led them to seek intervention from Ivalice.
With victories in the early battles, Ivalice's Army marched on the capital of Bura. But King Denamunda fell ill and was never to return to his kingdom. The confusion gave the Ordalian Army an opportunity, as Valowa was successful in holding off Ivalice's Army. Approximately 2 year stalemate of was broken by the Romandan Army's invasion.
Romanda is a military state separated* from Ivalice by Larner Channel. Under King Valowa's orders, a blood relative, they marched on Ivalice. But, Denamunda who succeeded King Denamunda was a brave warrior against both the Romanda and Ordalian armies. An outbreak of Bubonic Plague in Romanda forced them to retreat in 3 years.
The 2 squads most effective in the war were the Hokuten, led by Balbanes, and the Nanten, led by T.G. Cid. They scored many victories as they marched on Ordalia. But the long war was disasterous for both administrations. Farmers' revolts and riots broke out in many areas, as both kingdoms focused their war efforts within their borders. This made another stalemate broken only by the death of King Denamunda. (Widely believed to be assassinated) His successor, Omdoria* was no fit to lead the kingdom, and left all matters of state to the elder statesmen and the Queen. Therefore, there was no power to drive the troops of Prince Lanard, Valowa's successor, out. After allowing the invasion of Zeltennia, battles that both the Hokuten and the Nanten fought in, Ivalice hoped for peace. Realizing the war was useless, both kingdoms agreed on peace, focusing their efforts within their respective borders. Although the agreement was bilateral, Ivalice surrendered.
Soon after, Ivalice's economy was on the brink of bankruptcy because of severe war reparations. Payments could not be made to returning soldiers, and large groups of Knights were discharged. As a result, high unemployment, uncertainty and distrust filled Ivalice.
