Manipulation. Lies. Deceit.
These are useful tools. Using them, a single man could destroy an army, decimate the strongest military installation, tear apart best friends and make them blow each other apart. Thousands of years ago, a civilization created crystals, whose only task was to do this. They had no goal but to be weapons.

Said civilization no longer exists.
But these crystals surface now and then.
Wherever they surface, they change the course of history.
One such crystal appeared on Earth, in 2399 AD, during the great civil war. The Terranian government, who ruled over a large portion of New Kinetisand, via unquestionable monarchy, were in combat with a rebellion, which called itself the Lost Swords. They found one such crystal, and used it to decimate enemy bases, simply by teleporting the crystal into it.
However, one day, said teleportation goes wrong.......
