When fate calls, one heeds and goes forth to follow their destiny . . . if they feel like it. Fate Martyr Sapheire weaves the tale of an ancient prophecy sent to save a nearly extinct race. It is a tale told by many stories, with a few new twists, wrought by the challenges of friendship, love, and tragedy.

*Author's Notes* This manga was produced by me in 2001 with only computer paper and pencil. It was available online during it's two-year run before a hiatus until recently. If I decide to pick up the project again, it is highly likely the current pages and story will be reworked. As a whole, I am using my old manga to test the Manga Player and evaluate this project for possible future continuation. I apologize that the pages were not drawn to fit manga size requirements, and any future adjustments will be made for higher quality images. Unfortunately, this makes the text somewhat hard to read, and if I cropped the pages so the text were bigger, I would have to butcher the artwork. If you are actually trying to decipher this slug's pace serial drama, I may suggest holding CTRL and scrolling to zoom in on the text. If that does not work, I would gladly translate and even describe the plot in depth upon request. However, I will not explain the little murder scene in the beginning even if asked. It wouldn't be a confusing prologue if one immediately understood what was going on.

Also, please note that the footnotes on the bottom of pages are also from 2001 and if they note what I'm up to, that's what I was up to six years ago. (smile) Since I am considering reworking the entire pages, for now I am leaving them as-is.

As a final note, I am dearly sorry that I am computer iliterate and did not realize you could upload chapters with page numbers greater than 10. My computer iliteracy knows no bounds. All the parts are together now in a complete Volume 01. Don't expect Volume 02 so soon, however, as I am currently in the reworking consideration process. Again thanks for reading.
