Plot Outline

Part I

The film begins with a mysterious epilouge setting up sceen for things to come. Several gems of power are formed together for the greater good of mankind, but one more is made for the evil intentions. The Gem however is lost, and falls into the hands of an unknown character, who is reveald as Masashi (Ami's brother) in Fantasy Quest VI: The Last Stand but the gem weilds him into a creature of undesireable tolerance and power.

After the prolouge we are intorduced to our main heroin, Areana Morito who is a plain girl from a small island, living with her grand mother and little brother. While attending a merchants fair, she is given one of the powerful gems described in the prolouge. And one stormy night her island is taken over by the forces of evil. Areana and her brother need help from the Capital City and Lady Kitanah to help liberate them. After fleeing to sea and washing up, they are intorduced to Ami, the trusted advisor of Kitanah. After some discussion that night we meet a new character known as Lee who is a Wavemaster (One who performs Magic) who is seemingly after the X-Gems for his own reasons. But inturn he becomes an ally to them all.

But as Kitanah contemplates what to do about the situation, her loyal body guard plots against her and in a brut attempt to assasinate her, ambushes her on the Royal Sky Way but is killed by Areana.

After spending time in the Azar Forest Kitanah returns to Capital city, but danger is all around her, as her train explodes. Fortunatley Lee manage's a protection spell on her in the knick of time. The hunt begins for the mysterious assasin and ends in a well earned freindship.

Characters

Areana Morito

Our heroin of the story, is a master sword girl, despite her humble background. It is up to her and her freinds to get the X-Gems before the Evil Lord does. Areana is pretty smart for her age, she knows how to read and right better than most of her friends on the island.

Jermy Mortio

The younger brother Areana. In the story has no special abilities or items, and he's more of a supporting character although he plays a special role in Arean's life. He is all she has left of her family.

Lady Kitanah Kahmonah

The Ruler of the World and the City (With the exception of Titania) she too is in posession of an X-Gem, inheriting it from her father before her. She uses it mostly as her symbol of leader ship than in actual combat.

Ami

Ami is Kitanah's most trusted freind and advisor. Ami was a poor girl from Titania, before her brother was lost to his own corupted desires.

Influences

With out a doubt some of the greatest influences came from The Lord of the Rings Trilogy as a lot of the story has very similar elements.

</div>

The prolouge has a lot of the same basis seen in The Fellowship of the Ring including the X-Gems, although with many diffrences. While some critics felt it was a cheap wannabe, Kamrill stated George Lucas had a lot of inspiration for Star Wars why can't I?

Other influences include Kamrill's own work on her popular TV series and popular games.

</div> (Note: in actuality my ficitious character can not take credit for the show. But it would be so cool if I could) Many of the classes seen in the film were actually taken from her pervious work, and most fans noticed much of the cast from the series were chosen to do the roles in the film. In addition Kamrill's influences also came from a popular game Phantasy Star: Online. While it is certianly known her influences stem a lot in pop culture, a great ammount of it does have some basis in social affiars. The social classes based in the social cast system. (Which is a known reoccuring theme in her work). Many critics loved the subtle blend of social controversy with a fantasy esque to it, saying it kept the film from being preachy.

X-Gems

The X-Gems are as often described Gems of great power. Several were made and awarded to the rulers of the world. Initially according to Kamrill the gems went through several phases beofore coming to their final form.

</div>

Contrary to the oftnen popular belife, the gems weren't made with the intent of sheer power, even the Gem created in secret. the Character Terijima Ryoko described the X-Gems doing the will of the desires. If the desires are evil, the power corrupts and does evil things. But if it's a good will, the power will do good things. The gems of course were developed to do good, not as tools for power
