Just like Wolf Seraphine was in the ruins of Atlantica, she went around the royal palace and the trading district before travelling towards the temple.

The closer she came to the temple the colder she felt, as if all life was being sucked out of her.

When she walked the steps of the temple everything started to freeze, a pure white ice had formed. Yet it wasn't cold ice at all, in a matter of fact is was warm!

Seraphine arrived at the top of the temple and saw the Jet Black Knight holding up the roof, Wolf standing next to it.

The sound of an engine approaching, it pierced the eardrums with the high pitch. Seraphine turned around to see a Pure White Knight coming to the temple, it slowed down in the approach. At it's arrival it had taken a position to help in holding up the roof.

Seraphine was astounded by everything she had seen here, she was rather intrigued by the White Knight. It's color was the very white the ice on the steps had, as she approached she noticed that it had cracks on its left leg, arm and chest. Not to mention that the cracks ran deep all the way up to the head, splitting one of the eyes in two pieces.

Seraphine's mark started to glow bright deep blue, followed by a roar coming from the White and Black Knights. The right eye of the White Knight had lit up in the same color as her mark, that's when she realized that she had been linked to this unit.

Suddenly all color started to fade. As dawn came, Seraphine woke up.

She was sweating and breathing heavily, why wouldn't she something special had befallen her and yet she feels nothing but sadness towards it.

Seraphine rose from her bed and walked towards the window, all she saw was that dawn had come. The horizon burning in the flames of the sun. It was a good day for planning the Grand Tournament. Her brother will be in this tournament, it is his duty to prove his strength in combat. The winner of the tournament will be allowed to join the Templars (a group of warriors with cutting edge Knights).

She dressed herself in a beautiful light blue dress with white lining and left for the court.

At her arrival she first started to go through old documents of ARC powers, but all she found is the definition.

An ARC is a special ability or power that gives the owner an advantage in certain situations, it can be used however the owner of this power wants to.

Something else Seraphine found was about an ancient power "RECALL", the power of destruction and creation. There can only be 2 owners of the power RECALL, one owner of destruction and the other of creation.

Since she didn't find anything about the Dragon Empresses ARC, Seraphine decided to look for information about ancient Knights. She did find something about this topic, she found out about an ancient Knight known as Kindred. It is a Knight made up of 2 other Knights, Bahamut and Wyvern. Kindred is a keeper of balance, but can only appear when a suitable ARC-owner has appeared and the world is on the verge of chaos.

Sadly there were no records of what these Knights looked like.

She went back to her room after placing all of the records back in place. The moment she left the court she remembered something about a statue in the palace. The statue's name heralded "Bahamut and Wyvern protecting the Soul Crystal". Remembering that she went to look for this statue, upon finding it she immediately recognized the Jet Black Knight and Pure White Knight.

The return of the kindred had been assured, the only question is. When?

After a long day Seraphine had helped in planning the tournament with this on her mind, she was afraid to tell the king about this as it might lead to great trouble. She slept in and woke up the next day to help with the preparations which were going fluently. She had time left and entered herself into the tournament, she practiced the most she could before the sun started setting. This tournament was a battle between Knight units, something new to Seraphine in every way.

She could only hope to face her brother in battle to make him understand that there is no honor in winning a tournament. She just wants him to understand that he should defend Atlantica from within and not out there in the abyss.

Up till now Wolf has been stubborn and refused to accept this statement of his sister.

Both Wolf and Seraphine went to bed early to get enough sleep for the tournament.
