Worlds Collide
Lyrics posted:
Worlds collide and people fade
Seeking gates through timelines, we've all prayed
Let's fix the past, trade it now to see smiling faces
This hope, heart of Chaos cannot take
Paradoxes must break, this is the path I must take
My destiny may change your fate
The pain my heart feels is my strength
(X2)
Worlds collide and people fade
Seeking gates through timelines, we've all prayed
Let's fix the past, trade it now to see smiling faces
This hope, heart of Chaos cannot take
Paradoxes must break, this is the path I must take
My destiny may change your fate
The future to come is what we make
The Academy

People: Alyssa Zaidelle
Alyssa is an Academy trainee who helps release Noel and Serah from the custody of the Bresha Ruins security force. The lies she uses to set them free, and the fact that she already knows Serah's name, make the two time travelers wary of trusting her.
Although still a teenager, Alyssa is highly gifted and is already part of an official research team. There is something in the Bresha Ruins that she is eager to investigate.

People: Chocolina
Chocolina is a time-traveling merchant who can be found all over the world. There are reports of this mysterious trader appearing in almost every age in history. Some rumors say that she is a certain creature that took on human form...
Aside from offering an assortment of wares, Chocolina is also an expert craftsperson, able to synthesize special weapons and items from raw materials. She will, however, always insist on collecting a fee.
Chocolina derives great joy from offering her services to needy time travelers, and seems to know much about Serah and Noel.

Paradoxes: Paradoxes (seriously?)
Following the appearance of the gate that appeared in New Bodhum in 3 AF, Time Gates began showing up in a multitude of locations. The research institute, the Academy, gave a name to the anomalies that accompany the arrival of these gates and cause impossible things to happen—they called them 'paradoxes.'
In any location where a paradox is present, people report strange occurrences, such as the sudden appearances of unusual monsters, and odd connections to other times and places.

Paradoxes: Atlas
Atlas is a massive, humanoid war machine found within the Bresha Ruins, and it begin an uncontrolled rampage when the paradox effect was triggered. Only the left hand of Atlas was uncovered, but the rest of its invisible body is thought to exist in a different spacetime.
Despite being excavated in the ruins of an ancient city, the technology that powers the giant is far beyond the capabilities of that age. Researchers theorize that Atlas is actually a man-made weapon pulled into the present from some future time period.

Society: The Gran Elevator
The Gran Elevator is an ambitious project that aims to build a conveyance that will travel along the crystal pillar and connect Cocoon to Gran Pulse. The main purpose of the elevator is to provide a means to transport materials from inside Cocoon, and help speed construction of the city springing up at the base of the pillar.
With completion of the elevator scheduled for 4 AF, it is still under construction when Serah and Noel first pass through a Time Gate in 3 AF.

Locales: Bresha Ruins and the Purge
During the catastrophe that befell Cocoon, the Bresha Ruins were the site of terrible casualties. The reason for this can be found in the Purge.
The Purge was the name given to the mass deportation of Bodhum's residents. The fal'Cie manipulated the actions of the Sanctum and the elite army known as PSICOM, sowing chaos and inciting conflict among Cocoon's populace.
Many civilians fled to Lake Bresha and its ruins to escape the Purge, but a great majority were crushed by ancient structures that collapsed when Cocoon's momentum was suddenly halted.
