My country... is part of the Malkuth empire. It's a fairly peaceful place, though war was always just on the horizon. You see, the world of Auldrant is divided into Malkuth, the kingdom of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear and the neutral country of Daath. Tensions between Malkuth and Kimlasca have existed for many years now, as they're both very intent on getting their hands on Fonstone fragments. [She pauses for a moment.]

Fonstones are large tablets on which the Score, the planet's future is documented. The Holy Order of Lorelei, which rules over Daath, is dedicated to reading the Score, upholding it and keeping peace between the two countries. However, the people of Auldrant live their lives according to the Score's predictions. If the Score ultimately predicts war, that is what will happen and the Order or Lorelei will do nothing to stop it.
