[i]"There is no higher power than one's own imagination, save for their will. If you desire something, you can imagine it. If you imagine something, you can find ways to make it a reality. It's that strength found within yourself and yourself alone that will give you purpose.
In the world, life is always starting and ending, but purpose, unfortunately can rarely be found. Give yourself a voice and a pen: you are the protagonist of your own story. So get the girl or save the day. Make people feel wonderful or cast them down. Do whatever it takes to make your story one that people will enjoy until the end of time: you only have one chance to write it well.
Be a hero. Be a LionHeart."

Welcome to Taeda Vale: Valley of the torch.[/b]

[b]In the Palace throne room, the Princess awaits the tidings of her officials.[/b] "Miss Emory, Milady is ready for you." [b]As the doors swing open, a young-looking woman with short, navy blue hair approaches the throne and kneels. Next to her stands a hefty fellow with curly brown hair.[/b] "Milady, I come to you with something you may find intriguing." "Luciana, our Lady has little time to deal with your scientific discoveries as of late. Other, more pressing matters require her immediate attention." "Such as? What could possibly be more important than the pursuit of knowledge?" "Solidifying myself within this land of fallen shadows, miss Emory. Traitors and treason are abundant in masses, as I'm sure you are aware." "O-of course, Milady. I apologize for speaking out of line." "Remember that while I have much grander things on my mind, I am not deaf. Understood?" "Yes, Milady." "Good. Now, since my focus has been interrupted, speak. You came with words you believe to interest me?" "Yes, I've found a solution to tacking down the traitor. Humans themselves have more common sense than any other living creature in our world, and as such, they possess intuition. Problem solving skills, if you will. However, morality stands in the way of efficiency. Hounds have keen senses, which is why man has used them to hunt and track their game. But hounds are only as tamable as the master they obey." "What does this mean for us, Luciana? I'm not letting anyone with needles close to me, so you best have an alternat--" "If you would let me finish, I'd explain! Of course, the limitations of science can only be bent, not broken. So how does one combine the strengths of both, and none of the weaknesses? The answer, Milady, is youth." "Fine work, miss Emory; I assume you will need subjects and resources to work with, yes?" "I will. And should these results be conclusive, we will have our solution to finding the Traitor."
