A rather long MKR Fic and its prequel. It takes place after the
first series, disregarding the second completely. And it was written
before the author had seen most of MKR, so some things are not
correct.

A prequel to Crystalline Heart, the story begins centuries before the Magic Knights come to Cephiro. It is the story of the Byrde Miata, and the story of how Cephiro came to be what it was.

In the Forest of Song, Miata has all the power of a Pillar--however, it is not enough to protect her from the painful memories of her old home. She seeks answers in the Crystalline Cathedral, and is confronted by more things she'd rather not remember...
