Revision as of 09:26, 23 June 2010
As any adventurer worth his or her Silver Sea salt knows, the tradition known as Celestial Nights has its roots in the tragic tale of Prince Yahiko and Princess Amdina.
'Tis a tale from a bygone era—one that tells of a strapping royal scion and a pulchritudinous princess who chanced upon each other on opposite banks of the river that divided their two kingdoms, and had the terrible misfortune of falling in love. For this was an age of war and strife, and these two neighboring nations were locked in a bitter, bloody struggle every ilm the equal of the Crystal War.
The besmitten couple exerted every effort to convince their parents to put aside their differences and make peace between their nations, but this was no faerie tale, and it would not end happily ever after. The war raged on, and both prince and princess were caught in its bloody midst, falling to enemy hands without ever having the chance to share so much as a moment's embrace.
The tale struck a chord with the people of the realm, who, over time, came to pay tribute to the ill-fated lovers with a celebration of the stars, that the souls of the prince and princess might be joined at long last in the heavens above.
Likewise, it struck a chord among the profit-minded moogles of the MHMU, who figured that an annual dramatic rendition of the timeless tale might attract a wide audience and bring ample amounts of gil into their coffers.
Will this heavenly love story end in triumph or tragedy? Will our ambitious moogle friends be rolling in dough, or drowning in debt?
The fate of the universe—or one very small part of it, at least—is in your hands!
