?/?/2012
The Realm of consciousness and unconsciousness of all soul

On his right hand he hold a paper with something written on it, on his left hand he hold a crystal ball with many image appear on it. Lowering his head, he stare at the crystal ball before reading again what's written in the paper.

The world end prophecy is the undeniable truth

The balance of hope and desire has been broken

The war between light and darkness has begin

The death of everyone is drawing near

The day and night no longer has any difference

The first four seal of the apocalypse has been open

On the day of all mankind destruction

The messiah descend from the universe to save mankind

The great father calming his children from tears

The sun give light to every lost soul in the dark place

The true emperor rebel for his innocent people

And the true battle for humanity begin

"The new prophecy has been made," Philemon finally said, walking to the center of the realms dungeon,"I must wait no further, I better start finding Igor and discuss this matter, and I must find 'them'. If the prophecy is true, then they are our last hope." Philemon begin to disappear slowly to leave the realm.


A/N: Dear reader, this is my first fanfiction. So I am deeply apologize if there is some grammatical error in this fic. Since Persona 4 Arena 2 has yet to be released, the Persona 4 Arena sequel event will never took place in this fic. The year where Megami Ibunroku Persona and Persona 2 that took place in Persona universe timeline was never actually been confirm, so I simply pick the most possible year for the story to happen. P/S: The update might be slow because I'm still new to this site.
