Jackson love story.

A stunning princess was locked in an impregnable castle on the neighboring island. She was living alone and took care of the castle, yard and garden. The castle was created in such a way that the girl could not leave it and no one else could get inside neither.

A young man used to fly on the island and walking around. One sunny day he was passing by the windows of the castle. He saw the princess and decided to talk to a beautiful stranger. He was obsessed with her beauty. The stranger threw stones into the glasses until she paid her attention on him. They were talking about everything for hours and liked each other.

Taking care of the garden, the princess found a rare plant — a special Four Leaf Clover. Clearly, this one was super special. It seemed like the plant promised a good luck to its owner. She gave this wonderful artefact to her lover, so he could rescue her from imprisonment.

The young man knew that on the neighboring island were a lot of gamblers. He wanted to win some artefact that would help to free the princess.

Unfortunately, clover had another feature: it was impossible to fly with the artefact. The young man tried to fly to a neighboring island many times, but every time the transport or the bird could not take off. The lover retuned the clover to the princess and flew to the gambling island without it.

The four-leaf clover is considered one of the most magical things in all of Kanaria. It’s been said that people who find it will become incredibly lucky, and obtain a large sum of money upon death. However, this is also rumored to cause the person to lose their ability to fly.

Every evening he came to see the princess’s castle. He was so close to her. At one of the full moon the Kanaria Moon-viewing Ceremony began. It was the only night in three years, when between the islands appeared the bridge. At that moment the lover felt that the princess had found the pure love and went across the bridge.

The Kanaria Moon-viewing Ceremony is an ancient Japanese ceremony dating back to the 8th century. It has been revived and adapted as a way for a Princess to meet her true love, and is held once in every three years at night. The ceremony involves the lighting of bonfires on either side of a long, narrow bridge; the far bonfires being lit by a ceremonial priest. On the opposite end of the bridge is where a princess will wait for her lover to come and meet her on this night.

After this wonderful night, the young man returned with a four-leaf clover to the gambling island. There was no need to fly, because the bridge was open once in this three years, so he simply crossed it.

— Further events unfolded quickly and sadly. Inspired by love, I went to win a right artefact with that clover. I wanted to free the princess as soon as possible. At the very first game, I met this pirate, now a former pirate — Evilin. She deceived me by using the Pirate Flag

Arrghh matey! Give me yer loot!

Not to increase her chances, but to steal my artefact.

Since then, I’ve been following Evilin for three years. And now I figured out how to beat her. Tomorrow is the full moon — the night of the next Kanaria Moon-viewing Ceremony. After revenge, I’ll go across the bridge and release my love.

Jackson finished his story and stopped on the road. RMRK City appeared ahead.

Mood: love. We all love somebody (even Evilin) and we want to be with them. Will Jackson free his princess?
