Zeeglit's Quest

Zeeglit is a young moogle. And what, you may ask, is a moogle? Well, moogles live on the three layers of the clouds. Zeeglit and his family live on the Nimbostratus, the lowest of these layers, and our story begins with a prophecy of travel and danger. A short while later our hero sets out on a quest travelling between the cloud layers via moonbeams, ice surfing with new friends, taking a thrilling ride on the jet stream and meeting many strange and weird creatures – some friendly, some not! However, his real troubles begin when he meets the notorious thordites who also live in the cloud lands. Zeeglit suddenly finds himself leading a daring rescue mission for moogles kidnapped by the enemy. ‘Now!’ yelled Zeeglit as the sun reached its peak and beams of light bounced off each jewelled face and reflected in the deep crystal water below. Coils of rope snaked their way from above into the cavern and as if one, the moogles below stood and advanced towards them.
