Many years ago, a war seethed and erupted within
the land of Ivalice. It lasted for 50 years, finally
ending when both sides laid down their arms. However, the
war had exhausted the people's strength and the country's
resources, and the situation within Ivalice gradually
became worse. The lords of the six ruling families united
to guide Ivalice back to prosperity. However, their
delicate balance of power soon collapsed. One year after
the 50 year war had ended, Ivalice's Princess Ovelia was
abducted. Prompted by this, conflict grew between two
families. Gallione, ruled by Prince Larg whose crest was
a white lion, and Zeltannia, ruled by Prince Goltana,
whos crest was a black lion. The war between the two
families would be known later as "The Lion
War". Added to the backdrop of the Lion War, was the
problem of succession of Ivalice's throne due to the
sudden death of the king. Prince Larg is the elder
brother of the Queen Ruvelia. Prince Goltana is the
younger cousin of the dead king. |
