Beginner's Guide
        Author: An Old Adventurer

<This book is weathered and yellow
with age>

I leave this book here in the off
chance that should I not survive my
final adventure, others may learn
from my trials and tribulations.

I have lived many years and have
done many deeds. I have seen much
what this world has to offer.

This cave has been my hideaway in the
last few seasons, though if you are
reading this, it is most likely now
yours to reside in. I don't mind as
I'm either dead or faboulously rich.

Still, if you are planning on going
into the same trade as I and are not
the local scamps just playing at it,
some advice should be parted to you.

Now where to begin?

I won't know from which way you came
from so it's best to give you the
local landmarks;

If you follow the trail from here to
the South-East you find Vernis. It's
a mining town, but it should still
have some shops, a tavern and an inn.
You should be able to find some work
there, as well as food, gear, and
even a friend or two. The innslady I
recall was having some trouble with
local ruffians the last time I was
there.

East of Vernis is what the locals
call the "Puppy Cave". It's well...
always changing. A local mage called
it a "Hausdorff-Besicovitch fractal
plane", whatever that means.
If you leave the cave and come back,
or go up or down floors, it will
change all the creatures, items,
walls, and exits. You can find quite
a bit of stuff if you don't mind
hopping in and out.

The "Puppy" of this cave is fairly
deep in, and a child in town would
love to get it back, but it kept
getting itself killed when I tried.
It always reappeared on that floor
when I left and came back, but I
gave up after a few tries. Maybe
you can do it. Just don't get lost.

Once you are a bit tougher and better
geared, the Gray cave of Lesimas
might be be another good spot. It's
one of the more ancient ruins of
Nefia, and there's bound to be
something interesting in there. If
you ignore the roads, it's almost due
south of this cave.

No doubt all around the land there
will be caves and forests spawning
with loathsome critters. Just don't
go blindly into them, check them out
BEFORE going in. Preparation is a key
difference from a live Adventurer and
a dead one.
         -== Geography ==-
If you follow the roads from Vernis:
-Port Kapul is to the west. 3-5 days
  Good Business there as it's a port
  Fighters Guild and an Arena

-Palmia is to the East. 2-3 days
  Big City, lots to see and do
  King lives here
  Has Arena

-Yowyn is to the South-East. 2-3 days
  Farm Town, not a lot to do unless
  you like turnips and Harvesting.
  Note to self: Clean out Yeek's Nest
  AGAIN... worse than rabbits they be

-Lumiest is South-East of Palmia
  On an Island
  Lots of mages live there

-Derphy is South-west of Vernis
  No roads lead there
  Wretched hive of scum and villanry
  Steer clear of Dragon's Nest!

-Noyel is Far FAR to the east
  Bring a sandwich, it's a long walk
  Snow is slow going
  Don't poke the Fire Giant. Bad juju

      -== Work and Jobs ==-
While you may want to go about
slaying dragons and saving damsels,
it's best to start small. Being an
adventurer means you'll do jobs that
no one else wants to do.

Deliveries are a good way to start
out in this business. Example:
     Accept job
  -->GET THE ITEM AT YOUR FEET!<--
     Deliver item to recipient
     Collect reward
Note that forgetting the item to
deliver is very BAD, but not the end
of the world. If you are very lucky,
the local shops or fields may have
what you are looking for. They won't
know the difference, trust me.
Also note how many days you have to
deliver things. Running from Lumiest
to Port Kapul is NOT fun, and you may
simply not be fast enough yet to do
the really high paying ones.

Hunting can range from easy to very
VERY hard. The money offered is a
good way to tell how bad it will be.
Be careful doing these, as it takes
just one nasty critter to get you.

Gift getting also ranges from easy
to absurd. Just remember that if you
accept the job, running from town to
home and back takes time, and you may
not have that long to do it.

Cooking requests are only good if you
can cook, have the items, and can
deliver before the food rots. But if
you check out the local bakery before
accepting, you may just be able to
buy what you need before doing the
job.

Harvesting LOOKS easy, but it can be
very hard. Waste no time, and go as
unburdened as possible. Speed is the
key for these jobs.
Finally, try not to fail a job, it's
a black stain on your record, and too
many of those can get the guards on
you. Use you noggin BEFORE accepting
any job. Can I do it? Will I have the
time? Who gets their kid garbage on
their birthday?

      -== Advice and Tips ==-
And now a few nuggets of wisdom:

-Cargos of food are cheap, and you'll
eat them as you travel overland. But
you cannot eat them inside towns or
dungeons. If you are hungry just exit
the town or dungeon, eat, and enter.

-Be cheap. 'b'ash fruit bearing trees
in towns and fields for fruit, and
scavenge whatever plantlife you can
outside. That armor is not going to
come to you if you keep eating cakes
and pies.

-The meat of many monsters is edible.
Women love Purits flesh for what it
does for their skin. Some isn't so
good for you, but if you're hungry...

-While succulent and tasting of young
pork, the flesh of man should not be
eaten. Only crazy people eat people,
and you aren't crazy are you?

-Innkeepers for coin can feed you
quite nicely. They have beds too.

-Until you can buy/find/steal a bed
for your home, stay at inns when you
are tired. A sleeping bag is a good
idea for deep dungeon trekking.

-Should a pet or ally fall in battle,
most towns have a bartender who can
bring them back for a price.

-Check your 'j'ournal! It has all the
information about quests you are on,
jobs you are doing, events, your own
reputation and bills. Check it often.

-On the subject of bills. When you
become famous enough, you'll get a
salary of money and items twice a
month. The salary will be dropped off
in the chest in your home. However,
with salary also comes taxes. Take
the bill in hand and cash in pocket
to the local embassy just north of
Palmia and pay it there. Don't let
your bills add up as the taxmen are
worse than any dragon or demon.

-Should your skills start to plateau,
seek a trainer. There is one in every
town, and will sharpen your existing
skills. They also have skills you do
not yet possess and for a price will
teach you them. Beware though, they
only accept platinum coins, and those
are in short supply these days.

-And finally, beware the weather. Oh,
a little rain may have never killed
anybody, but with heavy rain comes
lightning that can blind you and the
great thunder which can confuse you.
Try not to get lost while in one.
Sometimes, the best thing to do is
stay in place till your head clears.
Rarely, but with increasing fervor is
the dreaded Etherwind. Beware this.
A friend of mine was stuck outside in
it and could barely be called human
when he finally staggered inside.
When it comes, FIND SHELTER! I cannot
stress this enough. Hide in a cave if
the monsters inside won't tear you to
bits. If you are in a town you are by
no means safe. Run to the innkeeper
and demand Shelter. Wait out the evil
storms, and only after it passes can
you return to your duties.


In closing, I hope this is of some
use to you, and I hope my final
adenture is a good one. Now if you
will excuse me, I have a fort to
conquer. How bad could it be?

Good luck to you and your travels.

Museum Administration Manual Mk.II
ReWritten by Curator Schmidt

So you want to run a Museum do you?

Young Sir/Lady, it takes some hefty
capital to purchase such a deed, but
if you have the time, patience, and
money this old curator will help you
out with this handy, unbiased manual.

In your wanton and overly hedonistic
destruction of the local flora and
fauna (henceforth known in this guide
as "adventuring") you might have come
across some of the following:

Item a.) Figure of <Fauna>
Item b.) Card   of <Fauna>

If so, then you may have barely given
them a glance before shoving them in
your sack if ill-gotten gains and
simply gone back to "adventuring".
No doubt you have sold them for more
tankerds of ale and legs of mutton,
but the more intelligent among you
might collect them into a pile and
ponder "Why do monsters have these?"

The answer: Vanity! And Magic!

And it is these things that we shall
profit from. And it's so simple even
an adventurer can do it!

Still, just in case, I have written
down the exact steps to minimize any
unfortunate mishaps that might arise.

Step 1.) Purchase a deed of a Museum.
   This step is what chokes out the
   small fry from the serious doers.

Step 2.) 'r'ecite the deed upon the
   spot on the world you wish your
   museum to be. Let the gnomes do
   the building, it won't take long.

Step 3.) Aesthetically place all the
   Cards and Figures you have found
   inside the musuem. Neatness is a
   virtue, though not necessary.

Step 4.) Profit!

That should do it as far as the basic
setup requires. If you want even more
information about specific queries,
merely ead on to learn more!
      -== Notes and Caveats ==-

Whilst having more than one musuem is
certainly possible, only your first
one will make any money.

Figures are worth more than cards
most times anyway.

Don't pile multiple items upon one
space. It is entirely unprofessional,
and utterly ineffectual.

The mightier the monster, the better
value the card and Figure. Rare are
the Cards with a Name or Title on
them. These indeed are best.

While having a dragon's card is nice.
having ten is just tacky. Variety is
key. The more duplicates you have,
the less they are worth.

Oh and one more thing... the gnomes
that build your musuem have somewhat,
oh, narrow tastes. you may have to
purchase a <designer board> to sculpt
it into your own grandoise vision.

            -== Errata ==-
Base cost:              140,000 gp
Maintenance cost:    1500 gp/month
Income per rank:      100 gp/month

**Figures above are approximates only


Happy Curating!

Crimberry Addiction and You
A Schmidt Education Pamphlet

Every year more and more people are
becoming addicted to the seemingly
harmless Crimberry.

Known by an ancient Nefian dialect as
Kur-amu-beri, which should just go to
show its long and sordid history with
our land and peoples, the Crimberry
is a strong hallucinogen with many
different applications.

Simply eating a berry can cause the
following symptoms in 15 to 60mins:
- Hallucinations
- Impairment like Drunkenness
- Raving like a loon
- Fever-like motor-control failure.
Crimberry's are highly addictive, and
should the addict fail to get his
next "Crim", he will either turn to
other narcotics, or become a threat
to our community.

And of course, no one thinks of the
poor children who get involved in our
seemingly "adult" activities. They've
even created a new way to "enjoy" the
devilish berries;

They copy the wild yeeks and dry them
then shove the dried berry up their
nose. This "snorting" of Crimberries
will lead to the proliferation of
excess agression, and will lead more
desparate individuals to become known
as "adventurers" commiting insane
deeds to get their next fix.
While some of the older, long haired
Wizards demand that Crimberries remin
legalized, if only for their sacred
"rituals", this must stop!

        FOR OUR CHILDREN!

        FOR OUR FUTURE!

Blessed Herbs
Chronicled by Dr. Schmidt, PhDM

* Curaria [KYURARIA AQUIFOLIUM]
Effect is well known and medicinal.
However, the ability of said effects
is based entirely on it's so called
"consecrated" state, which has been
clinically proven to be a real effect
and not merely a placebo.
Effect Status: Life Restorant

* Morgia [MOJIA DIPSACUS PILOSUS]
Massive hormone Stimulant. Increases
muscle mass, strength and endurance.
Blind-Test subjects recieved various
"consecrated" state herbs and thusly
recieved differing returns. This only
goes to prove that Gods do in fact
exist, and that all our science is
meaningless in their might.
Effect Status: Strength and Endurance
               enhancers

* Mareilon [MAREIRON DIPSACUS FEROX]
Neuro-Chemical stimulant. Increases
cognitive abilities. Level of effect
entirely on "consecrated" state.
Effect Status: Mental Enhancement

* Spenseweed [SUPENSUUIDO LONGIFOLIA]
All effects as of yet are unknown,
though it has been noted that those
who ingest it seem to be more "aware"
and levels of perception may be up.
More testing is needed to determine
all side effects.
Effect Status: Enchanced Perception


* Alraunia [ARURONIA MARTYNIA LUTEA]
Hormone-activated. Aphrodiasiac.
Thus extremely popular with the
locals. Oddly enough, it also appears
to have some ability at improving
memory. Research still pending grant.
Effect Status: Memory improvement,
               Libido enhancement

* Stomafilla [SUTOMAFIRIA HYPOGAEA]
Upon contact with the stomach, the
herb expands and fills the cavity,
leading the consumer to feel very
"bloated". Long term use and the
nutritional level of the plant has
yet to be verified.

Effect Status: Very Filling


As more specimens are brought in and
tested, so shall we update this brief
guide.

Until then,

Shop Owning and Operational manual
ReWritten by Schmidt the Fence

So, you think you can own a shop? I
know, sitting on your arse all day
hawking wares seems easy enough.

But then riddle me this genius:
If it's so easy, why is there only
one shop per type in every town?

The answer is simple:
      Only the strong Survive!
(Well, that and the high taxes...)

Store operation is so difficult,
only the meanest and cut-throat can
survive in town. You however, have
an advantage over us town-shops:
     You will be outside!
And while that sounds less than ideal
right now, your monthly payments to
the crown are cut down to a mere
Five Thousand Gold Pieces a Month
(5000gp/Month)
Which is peanuts to what us city
shops have to pay, believe you me.

     -== Setting up a Shop ==-
Step 1.) Buy a deed of a shop.
 (A Mere 200,000gp at a base price.)

Step 2.) 'r'ead the deed aloud on the
spot of the world you would like it
to be built on.

Step 3.) Set up the shop (see below)

Step 4.) Caveat Emptor!

     -== Running your Shop ==-
Your shop is up and now it must be
run, which is a separate process.

First you need a shopkeeper. Now this
cannot be you, as you have to out and
get the things to sell. So you have
to go and get one of your companions
to do it. You should choose a worker
based on how good they look, and how
good a negotiator they are, as they
are the vital two things in any good
sale. Now that you have such a goon,
go to the register in the shop.
Assign that person to the job.

The other part is also simple, to
SELL Stuff you need to HAVE stuff.
So go get stuff and and leave it in
your shop. The better stuff should
be out on display, the less good bits
should be in a pile in the back in
your shop strongbox.

-== Little Golden Nuggets of Info ==-

Your Salesperson stays at the shop
and cannot come with you.

Selling stuff makes money(natch) but
it also improves your rank, which can
make you even more money.

Due to a vicious spat with the local
Furniture Union, we cannot sell any
spare furniture out of town. We in
town can still buy and sell it.

Anything else, garbage, junk, even
rotten stuff can be sold if you can
find a sucker for it.

Investigate your allies to find the
prettiest and bestest negotiator. It
may be 10,000gp to do so, but having
the best salesperson available will
make up for it in the long run.

The Embassy north of Palmia sells a
fair bit of equipment for shops if
you need anything.

Due to your shop permit, you can ONLY
sell a maximum of 10 items at a time.
You can expand on this for a mere
2000gp for an additional ten slots,
and every subsequent 1000gp for each
10 slots after.


       -== Fiscal Information ==-
Base cost:            200,000 gp
Maintenance cost:     5,000 gp/month
Income per rank:      ??? gp/month**

**Why ??? for income? 'Cause that's
where you come in bub!

With luck, you too will be living
large like me!

Remember: The GP stops here!

Good Business to you!

Crop Growin' Fer City-Slickers
by Jebediah Schmidt

So you reckon on joining us good folk
in doin' an honest days work do ya?

Well, you adventurers-types with yer
big-ol' swords and fancy armor, might
not got enough grit ta get the job
done right, but we'll give you a shot
at join us humble folk.

Ta start, you need ta have a green-
Thumb, or "Gardening Skills" in your
fancy city speak. If ya don't have
that skill afore a-startin' out ya
gots a Yeek's chance on a skillet to
get any plantin' done. So go get ta
learnin' that first.

Next, since we got all the good land
near the towns, ya'll have to set up
elsewhere. Now, I could go on all day
about what my Pappy and his Pappy say
about soil, but I know you won't get
but a yeek bite's worth of it, so
allow me to "summ-ar-ize" it fer ya:

Time and Place. Them's crucial.

Ya'll might've noticed it rains more
at certain times of the year. Thems
the seasons, and the rainier it is,
the better fer yer crops.

Place is easy. You might notice we
like to plant on flat plains. There's
a good reason fer it, and ya'll soon
prolly figger out what it is. Avoid
Snow, Mountains, and the only good
thing that came from a forest is more
trees, not crops.

Now buy a deed and claim yer land.
Come Hell or High Ether it's yers!

But Jebidah, ya sez, I ain't gots no
seeds tah plant! Kin I have some o'
yers? I'd say heck no! Seeds is the
lifeblood of any crop! Go finds yer
own! Ya get seeds rarely, unless you
heads North near the Alter and finds
ya some.

Once ya got some seeds, ya needs ta
plant 'em. Now I like doin' it in the
rain, as I reckon it's better for em.
Jes stand in yer fields and 't'ool em
into the soil all gentle like. Easy.
Now, after that, ya gotta wait, as
they take time ta grow.

Thanks to that there Etherwind, crops
only take about a week or so nowadays
which gets my Pappy all in a tiff it
does, as he reckons it oughta take a
whole season like it did in his time
and his Pappy's time. Anyhoo, after
they grow and get ripe, ya gots ta
pick em. At first ya'll bumble a bit,
but once you get good enough, ya jus'
might find more seeds once ya pick em
rightly good enough.

Then ya'll go and do it again!

     -== Bits from my Pappy ==-
Now some crops'll wither, and that's
life, so no grumblin' about fate and
the winds and all that hackey-dackey.
It'll happen less if ya bless ya seed
AFORE ya go and plant it! Practice
also helps keep the wither away too.

'g'et yer crops when theys ripe, also
'g'et yer withered ones away too as
ya never know if it's a catchy sick.

Seed Types:
Fruit seed: grows them there fruits
Vegetable seed: grows them vegetables
Herb seed: Ah reckon it grows herbs
Gem seed: grow ores and gems, honest!
Unknown seed: ? Never Grew one o dese
Artifact seed: Grows Fancy artifacts

If ya needs seeds, and I know no real
farmer that dain't, ya should worship
Kumiromi. She likes her offerings all
mushy-like, and there's always scraps
ya don't need much.

My Pappy's Unca once said that if ya
'g'et yer crops in the rain it's gets
ya right better crop. Now I never was
one to go pickin' in the rain, so's I
don'ts knows fer sure iffin it's true
or not.

      -== Them Numbery Bits ==-
Deed: Bout' Forty Thousand or so
      Pends on your yackin' n' dackin
Now my Grammy, she could get a deal.
Ya shoulda seen her get TWO sacks a
Potatah's for one jug o' CrimShine.
Course', our Still was made by my
Pappy's Cousin's Unca. Still, with
Crimberries bein' frowned on as crops
ya have ta plant them all sneaky like
in the back behind squash...

A Ranching guide for the Greenhorns
By Cattle Baron Schmidt

Howdy all! I write this guide for the
same reason I rustle cattle about:
Money. Plenty of good royalties to be
had if one takes the time to put pen
to paper. Still, while I can't give
ALL my secrets to you as it'd put me
out of business, but I can't get you
to by my next book if I don't give at
least the basics.

To begin with, you'll at least eighty
thousand or so to purchase a deed to
a ranch. Less, if you are a good
talker or rather attractive.

Then, with deed in hand, find the
best place for it you can find. While
it cannot be within town limits, as
you do NOT want people asking nosy
questions on what exactly it is you
are breeding, or other such moral or
ethical-type dilemmas.

Once you are at the spot of choice,
merely 'r'ead the deed and claim your
land.

-== The Joys & Perils of Breeding ==-

Good Breeding is a fine art, and is
what separates us from the savages.
No where more true is this rule than
at a ranch.

Any animal assigned to be a "breeder"
will stay on the ranch, and, in time,
produce milk, eggs, shit, and other
bits. And no, I am not going to try
to explain how mammals will lay eggs
or how exactly you milk a twenty-ton
firebreathing lizard. I don't rightly
try to answer those sort of questions
and frankly, neither should you.
Just accept the fact and move on.

Now, those items can be sold for fair
coin, but the real profit is in the
breeding and rightly so. This isn't a
farm after all. Now, with the coming
of the Etherwind, breeding has become
a very simple process. Not like the
old days, when you had to keep track
of bloodlines, and breeding seasons,
and listen to the mating howls, and
the awful thumping of not one but two
Twenty-ton Carnivores going at it.
All. Night. Long.
But I digress. Now all you do is just
assign it breeding duties, and let it
be. Soon, there will be more of them.
Mitosis? Magic? Again these are the
questions you should not rightly ask.

Now, these... offspring, can be used
in several ways, which I shall list
below:

'i'nteract with it and get it to join
you on your travels.

Gene Engineering with zero risk to
the originals.

Profit by taking it to a slave trader
if, I might add, you know where to go
where no one asks any questions.

Or you can kill it and the odds of a
carcass being salvageable is much
better than duking it out in the wild

-== The Drydock. Waste Nothing ==-

A benefit of having a ranch is having
a drydock at your disposal. Now I put
mine in the southeast corner so the
wind will blow the stench away from
my estate. I assume it will be the
same for you (you'd best hope so).
In any other trade a rotten carcass
would be nothing but a loss. Not so
with a ranch, where nothing goes to
waste. Simply dump your rotten meat
into the drydock to cure, and in no
time at all you'll have delicious,
lightweight, adventurer-sought-after
Jerky!
        -== In Conclusion ==-
At this point a wise man would stop
writing here, and just let you dream.
Simply imagine the possabilities, and
then grasp them.

In my next book, which will be soon
available, I will highlight the more
subtle tricks to the trade, like how
exactly you prevent a twenty-ton,
fire-breathing, living force of
Destruction and Death from simply
leaving the ranch after setting all
to the flame and devouring you on the
spot for asking it to sit there and
breed.

Until then Partners!

You have been cordially invited hero,
RSVP not required, but come prepared.

<This has been written on papyrus>

You have gotten a bit of a name for
yourself young one, and you are even
now growing stronger. Soon I, in my
age beyond ages, might not be a match
for you. And sensibly, I won't take
that risk later. But I do so love a
fresh challenge every now and then.

So hear this.

Seek my Pyramid! Challenge my maze!

Of course you should have a reason
more than simply my word of challenge.

How about treasure? Ah, I knew that
would do it. Within my Labyrinth lies
much treasure if you can find it. It
lies within much risk, but any reward
without risk is hollow and cold as is.

And there is what I carry as well,
though I feel it fair to warn you
that I have played this game for a

Oh and one more thing, should you not

Face me if you dare!

       - Towns of North Tyris -
                    <By Lhoto>
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Have you been looking for an in-game
guide? Look no further! This will
assist you in some of the more
annoying things to remember!


North Tyris contains 8 towns.
Various missions will require you to
get from one town to another within
a time limit. For this reason, it is
impotant to know the town's names.


====================================
VERNIS (Close to home)
====================================

Vernis is the small mining town next
to your starting home. This town has
an abundance of food on the ground
and fruit trees, making it a good
place to swipe some free food. In
addition to this, it has the nearby
'Puppy Cave' which randomly
regenerates each time you leave a
floor of it (which makes for good
looting). The loot which you get
from Puppy Cave can be identified at
the trainer's building between the
Inn and the Pub.


====================================
Port Kapul (North West of home)
====================================

Port Kapul is the seaport on the
western side of the continent. It is
the home of the Fighter's Guild,
as well as the only pet arena. In
addition to this, it is one of the
four locations where you may fight
in an arena.


====================================
Derphy (South West of home)
====================================

Derphy is a town to the south west
of the starting home. Known as the
town of theives, it contains the
thieve's guild, and has no guards.
This makes it the ideal location for
individuals with low karma. Aside
from this, the only notable feature
in Derphy is its arena.


====================================
Yowyn (South East of home)
====================================

Yowyn is a small farming town
located to the south east of the
starting home. It is the best place
to find gardening missions, which
are essential to level up your
gardening, and make owning a farm
a realistic possibility. Yowyn has
many different fruits/vegetables on
the ground, and is a good location
to fill up before a dungeon.


====================================
Palmia (East of home)
====================================

Palmia, the capital city of North
Tyris, is located to the East of the
original home. It is home to the
king and queen, and also the
best location to pick up certain
quests due to location. It is home
to one of the four fighting arenas.
Three tiles to the north of Palmia
is the Embassy. The Embassy is both
a good place to buy deeds for
buildings, as well as furniture.
This is also the location where
you will be paying your taxes unless
you obtain a tax box.


====================================
Lumiest (Follow path east of Palmia)
====================================

Lumiest is the second port city, to
the east of Palmia. It contains one
of the four fighting arenas, as well
as the mage's guild. Lumiest may be
slightly difficult to get to due to
the close proximity of the path to
the snow.


====================================
Noyel (To the far north east)
====================================
Noyel is a town located within the
tundra. As inconvenient as it may be
this town contains a winter festival
which allows you to convert to a
different god without any penalty.
In addition to this, several unique
merchants can often be spotted here,
as well as several very high paying
missions. Be wary though, these
missions are often impossible due to
the slowing effect of the snow.
On the other side of the lake to the
south of Noyel is Miral and Garok's
Workshop. This workshop is the
location where mini medals are
spent, as well as a location where
you can buy a tax box.
====================================
Larna (To the far south east)
====================================

Larna is the only town that is not
directly accessible, and as such
will never have any missions. To get
to Larna, one must go through the
nearby mountain path, a level 25
tower-dungeon nearby.

You Water Wasting Jackals! Curse you!
By Schmidt the Water Bandit

Where I come from water is life!
Waterholes are protected to the death
down to the last woman and child!

I come to this country, and what do I
see? Water, nay, LIFE, being wasted!
You people, who live in such lushes,
waste so much it's sinful!

Water should be blessed, given to all
your gods as tribute! Do you people
even know all the things you can do
with dirty water?

I suspect not.

Nor will you if you simply toss it
all away like dung from a diseased
camel.

May all who waste water wither like
grass in a drought, and may what you
issue from your loins be as sand!

Damn you all!

Story of Elona
Prologue

The setting of the story is a world
named Irva. After the rise and
collapse of civilizations, it has
arrived at its eleventh era, Sierre
Terre. It is said to be the most
creative - and also destructive - age
Irva has seen.

After a month of torrents, the
eastern continent has been taken over
by uninhabitable forests - a
phenomenon that has not been seen
before. While the easterners were
seeking refuge in North Tyris (the
continent in which the game takes
place), the prince of Zanan - one of
the nations of the west - made the
claim that this disaster is what
destroyed Rehm Solenoid, the tenth
era. Therefore, the people of the
forest should be denied hospitality.

The formal name of the forests is the
Vindale Forest and its inhabitants
are called Elea. The conflict over
the Vindale Forest did not stop to
grow and its destruction seemed, at
the moment, inevitable.

While all of this was happening, the
protagonist of the story (you!)
stowed away on Queen Sedona. However,
etherwinds managed to sink the ship -
leaving you floating the waters,
unconscious. When you regain
consciousness, you find yourself in a
cave along with a man and a woman.
The strangers identify themselves as
Elea, the people of the forests. The
man introduces himself as Lomias; the
woman as Lanneire. Lomias teaches you
how to survive in North Tyris. After
that, as their function as
messengers, Lomias and Lanneire take
off to the palace in Palmia.

Story of Elona
Act 1

(The following is the storyline
unfolded in the Japanese version,
absent in the English translation.)

Once you arrive at Vernis, a soldier
of Zanan tells you at entrance that
the crown prince of Zanan himself has
visited the city. In the city square,
some albino - Saimore, the Crown
Prince - is delivering a speech. He
claims: the Vindale Forest and the
Elea are attempting to resurrect the
Messera - the disastrous entity named
the Star-Eating Giant that destroyed
Rehm-Ido, the era preceding Sierre
Terre, considered to be the source of
the Vindale Forest's expansion and
the etherwinds. So far in history,
the great nations of Irva have warred
with each other. But now, all nations
must embrace each other if Irva hopes
to destroy the Vindale Forest and the
Elea and survive another apocalypse.
Finally, Saimore demands that the
insignificant nation of Palmia should
support this alliance of great
empires.

When you are about to leave Vernis,
the drunkard Zananese lieutenant
Loyter, the Crimson of Zanan, learns
that his soldiers discovered his
once-rival Bethel, the White Eagle of
Zanan... now titled Whom Dwell in
Vanity. Bethel cries that he would
rather rot in prison than talk to
Loyter - and Loyter fulfills Bethel's
wish.

In any case, you (for -some- reason)
enter Lesimas, a Nefian ruin nearby
Vernis...

By then, the news of Bethel's arrest
in Vernis reaches the ears of
Saimore. He tells the messenger not
to do anything to Bethel without his
orders... and mumbles that how ironic
it is to find Bethel at this moment.
On the other hand, Barius, one of
Saimore's advisors, asks what he
expects of Bethel. Saimore's answer
is that, though he expects nothing
out of him, he wants Bethel to become
an audience of the comedy that shall
soon consume Irva.

You reach the third floor of Lesimas,
only to find a heavily wounded man.
He identifies himself as a Palmian
scout who has been searching the
ruins and tells you that, in order to
stop the clash of the great empires
and the threat posed against Sierre
Terre, his letter to King Xabi must
be delivered. After the scout's
death, you find it unable to procede
any further - so you head to Palmia
as asked.

By the time you arrive at Palmia,
King Xabi is hearing Lanneire and
Lomias. To Lanneire's appeal for aid,
Xabi answers that Palmia exists to
balance the empires. If Palmia were
to oppose Saimore, whose claims are
becoming more and more popular across
Irva, they will make enemy of the
world. Thus, without Palmia, Irva
will inevitably devolve into a world
war among the great empires. For this
reason, Xabi denies the Elea aid.

Lanneire refutes Xabi's argument:
will Xabi sacrifice the Elea for the
sake of makeshift “peace”- However,
Barius intervenes. He states that,
even though the Elea refer to
themselves as innocent and harmless,
the etherwinds from the Vindale
Forest are wrecking havoc across the
world. Furthermore, Barius demands
that the reason behind Vindale
Forest's unusual expansion should be
investigated. Of course, Lanneire
denies that there is no such thing as
Messera - but Xabi ignores her
comments. He excuses Lanneire from
the audience, saying that he will
listen to her the day after.

Saimore reiterates to King Xabi that
the Vindale Forest hosts Messera.
And, even if this does not turn out
to be true, the forests will continue
to expand and take over all habitable
lands. For these reasons, Saimore
demands custody of Lanneire. Xabi
asks: does Saimore not want Lanneire,
because she knows the truth-
Saimore's reply is that he has his
reasons. In the end, Xabi denies
Saimore's request, reason being that
Lanneire is a distinguished guest
from another nation. Furthermore,
Xabi states that Palmia will not be
concerned with the Vindale Forest
crisis.

Left by himself, Saimore mumbles that
Lanneire resembles “her”... Barius
adds that, with the reintroduction of
the White Eagle, it is certain that
the Wheel of Fate has begun to turn.
Saimore says that he does not believe
in such a thing as fate, but he of
course welcomes how they lavishly
adorn the stage for him. He says that
Bethel and Lanneire shall play the
roles that he deems appropriate.

Once you deliver the letter to King
Xabi, you are asked to talk to the
royal librarian if you wish to work
for Palmia. Upon talking to Erystia,
the royal librarian and the head
researcher of Lesimas, you receive
the following information:

Lesimas - the ruins to which King
Zasim, one of Palmia's three Greats,
and his cousin Zeome personally
ventured for the purpose of attaining
the treasure at its bottommost floor.
However, only Zasim returned from the
adventure. The king told his agents
that the treasure must lay asleep in
eternal darkness and its chamber
shall be foreverl sealed... and that
Zeome will never return. Thus, the
heart of Lesimas was magically
sealed. The key to the seal had its
magical property obscured and was
split into three, each of which were
given to the three evil ones of North
Tyris.

Erystia gives you a mission: you are
to find out the fate of Karam, the
Lonely Wolf of Karune, who was to
explore the depths of Lesimas. His
reports from the ruins has ceased for
weeks now and that the last one was
from the sixteenth floor of Lesimas.

About the time you leave Palmia,
Lanneire and Lomias are looking for a
woman named Liana from the Palmia
tavern. According to Xabi's comments,
Liana will protect anyone from harm
with the right price. However, Bethel
had gotten to Liana first. Seeing how
gloriously drug- and alcohol-addled
Bethel is, Lomias attempts to leave
the scene - Apparently, he despises
the idea of accompaning an addict.
But the tavern has been surrounded by
uncertain figures! With force, Bethel
takes Lanneire and Lomias and escapes
the tavern.

Once you have gotten past the third
floor of Lesimas, Lanneire confronts
the crime lord, Sevilis, in Derphy.
Remembering Xabi's advice that
Sevilis can be trusted in times of
danger, Lomias asks Sevilis to help
them find out who it is that made the
attempt at their lives. With a gander
at Lanneire and Bethel, Sevilis
certifies that it must have been
Zanan. Here, though Bethel has never
met Sevilis before, Sevilis treats
Bethel as if they've known each other
all along... Finding this strange,
Bethel comments on it; Sevilis
brushes it off like nothing.

It turns out that Sevilis was in
league with Saimore all along - he
locks up Lanneire's party for the
purpose of trading prisoners with
Barius. Lanneire questions Sevilis if
he has turned his back to Palmia, but
he ensures her that no harm will come
to her. Upon meeting with Barius, it
turns out that one of Sevilis' men
has been captured by Barius. At the
end of the deal, Barius mysteriously
tells Sevilis - “your survival will
be a secret to him.”

While you explore the depths of
Lesimas, Saimore summons Lanneire to
his chamber. He says that he just
wanted someone to talk to. Lanneire
coldly denies company, saying that
there can be no understanding between
her and Saimore, who is falsely
accusing the Vindale Forest and the
Elea of evil. Surprisingly, Saimore
admits that it is all a lie. The
truth is that the Vindale Forest have
become activated, sensing Messera's
resurrection, and the etherwinds are
the only weapons against Messera.
Saimore requests Lanneire to hear his
story before revealing the truth of
the Forest.

Long ago, Zanan had two crown
princes. Saimore was the second -
weak, ugly and pale. The first crown
prince, Clyne, was healthy, beautiful
and strong, like sun to Saimore's
shadow. Unlike Clyne, who was
interested in the arts of combat and
war, Saimore was devoted to charity
and kindness. His study on evils of
the world brought his attention to
the Vindale Forest and the Elea, who
were despised by the rest of the
world. In the seeming unhealth of the
forests, Saimore saw himself. He
believed that, if he can find a way
for the peaceful coexistence between
the Elea and the other peoples
possible, perhaps Saimore himself
will find his place in the world. But
his searches were in vain and time
kept passing. Saimore could not
accept a world where the strong
crushes the weak. Similarly, he could
not accept that an albino like
himself should be dominated by his
strong brother. He grew to hate the
world.

But, one day, Saimore met “her”. She
was an Elea of a similar age. What he
admired the most in her was that she
was living strong in Zanan, where the
prejudice against the Elea was the
strongest. In a way, Saimore saw her
as a fountain of inner strength. But
in the end, she left Saimore with
nothing but scars in his heart.

Saimore ends his recount here, saying
that they have more than enough time
to kill.

You pay no attention to all this
happening above the ground - you are
too busy exploring Lesimas. In the
outside world, Lomias and Sevilis
have a talk at a Derphy bar. Sevilis
says: Lanneire's imprisonment is not
by Zanan, but Saimore himself, and
Saimore will soon let go of Lanneire.
But under one condition: in the
conference of nations that will take
place in Palmia, Lanneire and Lomias
will represent the Elea. Befuddled by
this sudden favor, Lomias asks why -
Sevilis just asks them to entertain
Saimore for this once.

This still doesn't stop you from
exploring Lesimas. As you go deeper,
Saimore continues his life story with
Lanneire as the lone audience:

Clyne died. The world knows that,
during one of his mountainous
adventures, he misstepped and fell
off a cliff... but the truth is that
it was Saimore who pushed him off a
cliff. Killing his brother and
grasping all of Zanan's power meant
not only Clyne's death, but that of
Saimore's soul also. He revolted
against his long-held virtues of
peace, compassion, charity and mercy,
saying that all of these was nothing
but an excuse for his pathetic state.
Though he may have become the heir
apparent of Zanan, the sense of
inferiority persisted. Saimore could
neither back off nor go further.

Once hearing Saimore's story,
Lanneire admits that she can believe
none of it... though she now
understands why he became the person
he is now. Surprised at the
understanding of another Elea,
Saimore entertains the thought that,
if goodness truly exists in this
world, perhaps they will meet again
in another lifetime. But he also
mentions that it is too late. Saimore
now reveals the truth of the Vindale
Forest to Lanneire:

The truth is that Messera, the "Star
-Eating Giant", is a virus. It is the
end of all life that hopes to destroy
it all. In Sierre Terre, Messera lies
dormant in all lifeforms and
environments and the only reason that
life can persist is because of the
Vindale Forests and its etherwinds.
If the Vindale Forest is destroyed,
then all life shall end in Irva.

And the destruction of the Vindale
Forest is at hand. Saimore is hoping
to find out how the world will react
once it realizes its mistakes too
late, once Messera reawakens.
Lanneire calls Saimore out for
dooming Irva for one man's problem.
But Saimore claims that this is all
comedic only because it -is- one
man's problem. If Lanneire wishes to
talk ideologies, it may be better to
talk with Barius, who has different
intentions than Saimore, says him.

Devoted to your cause, you keep
spelunking your way into Lesimas. By
this point, Lomias, Sevilis and
Bethel are seeking audience with the
queen... but, suddenly, Lanneire runs
into the court, telling the group to
abandon this place as quickly as
possible. However, it is too late -
King Xabi has been assassinated and
the Lanneire's gang is held culprit.
Though they know that Saimore is
behind all this, they have no other
option than to make the run for it
and escape the scene.

You finally arrive at the seventeenth
floor of Lesimas. You discover Karam,
but he also is heavily wounded. At
death's door, Karam tells what he has
found out: it is Zeome who is
guarding the secret treasure of
Lesimas. Furthermore, Karam
understands why Saimore would want
the treasure - for the treasure is
the Eye of the Eternal Darkness, the
vanisher of all lies. If Saimore, who
already has widespread support, wants
this treasure, could it be because he
doesn't want his lies to be seen
through- If this is the case, then
what is Saimore truly intending to
do- Though he is aware of the
terrible implications, Karam knows
that he is unable to escape Lesimas
in his current state. For this reason
he asks you to deliver this
information to Palmia as quickly as
possible. And then, Karam relieves
himself of the pain.

Once you return to Palmia, Lanneire's
gang can be seen by outskirts of
Vernis. According to Lomias, the
rumor that a Vindale witch has
murdered Xabi when he denied aid to
the Elea has spread around the town.
Sevilis suspects that Saimore will
wage war against the Vindale Forest
under the pretense of pursuing the
so-called assassin. To this, Lomias
complains: if hiding in the Vindale
Forest won't stop the aggression
against the Elea, then where can the
Elea go- On the other hand, Lanneire
states that they must return to the
Vindale Forests, in order to warn the
Elea of the coming invasion, no
matter what Saimore really intends.
But, first, they must raid Saimore's
laboratory in order to find out more
about the Vindale Forest's secret. If
the Vindale Forest is the only weapon
against Messera as Saimore claims,
then there may yet be hope for the
Elea. Additionally, Lanneire
entertains the thought that Saimore
is expecing her to take some action.
In any case, Lanneire's group decides
to head to Zanan, in order to find
Saimore's laboratory.

You deliver Karam's final words to
Erystia. Erystia explains that the
Eye of the Eternal Darkness is the
codex of all of Irva's true history.
If Saimore wants this treasure in
order to cover up his false claims,
then he must be stopped. There is no
time to mourn for King Xabi and
Karam's death - you must fight the
three evil ones and recreate the key
to the final chamber.

Sevilis and Lanneire are talking on a
boat toward Zanan. Lanneire
apologizes to Sevilis for getting him
involved in her mess and thanks him
for providing the means to achieve
their goal, but Sevilis answers that
both Sevilis and Bethel are doing
this for their own reasons. Lanneire
comments that Bethel must be a kind
person and a smile would complement
his personality well - to this,
Sevilis reminds her that there are
people who just don't fit well within
the world.

By the time you challenge the Tower
of Fire and gain the Sage's Stone,
Lanneire and Bethel talk in the dark
of the night. In their conversation,
Bethel tells Lanneire that she
reminds him of Elishe. Lanneire
remembers that name from somewhere
before - so Bethel tells her his life
story:

When the great empires were warring
with each other, young Bethel,
unsatisfied by the violence in the
world, met Elishe in the port city of
Altiheit. Elishe was an Elea - by the
time Bethel met her, people claimed
that she was the source of the
disease being spread across ships.
The rumors were vile enough that no
orphanage would take her in. By the
time Bethel knew what was going on,
he was already holding Elishe's hands
tight. The two of them had found a
shelter in one of the warehouses and
depended on each other like family.
All this while, every week, someone
would send them money, food and
clothes. Whenever Bethel and Elishe
asked the courier, they would only
say that they were from the “Spirit
of Altiheit”. What the Spirit of
Altiheit sent them wasn't just food
or money, it was hope itself - so
remembers Bethel.

Your next challenge is the Crypt of
the Damned. From here, you gain the
Fool's Stone.

Bethel continues his life story:
before coming to Altiheit, Bethel
used to be a student of a military
academy, whose method operandi mainly
included using others as stepping
stones. But sickness got to him;
while he was off commission for two
months, being nursed by his little
sibling, the world has changed from
him. Bethel thought that everyone
looked on him with scorn and
contempt. But that is only because he
is judging himself by his own values.
He tried to change himself, but the
vicious past self would always laugh
at his attempts and tempt him back to
the academy. Tired of this self-
treachery and fighting, Bethel runs
away from his hometown. Elishe was
not as beautiful as Lanneire, Bethel
says, but her eyes were just like
Lanneire's - compassionate, forgiving
and embracing. For Bethel, Elishe
becomes the reason to live on. To
protect and provide for Elishe,
Bethel learns to accept his ways and
re-enter the competition in the
military academy. Seven years after
moving to Altiheit, Bethel becomes a
lieutenant of Zanan.

Your last challenge lies in the
Ancient Castle. You defeat Wynan, the
Lord of the Ancient Castle and gain
the Loser's Stone.

Bethel's story continues: One autumn
day, on the way back from a play,
Bethel and Elishe come across a fire
at a noble's mansion. Elishe was
worried that someone might still be
stuck inside the house - but,
suddenly, wooden support collapsed
and fell on Elishe. Bethel tried to
lift the support, but he could not do
it alone. He sought for help, but
nobody would step forward - Elishe
was, after all, an Elea. Bethel could
not find himself in a position to
criticize them; had this happened to
his rivals at the academy, he would
do the exact same thing. In the end,
the fire and the weight killed
Elishe. When Bethel retrieved
Elishe's burnt body, he wept - and
froze in time.

You report back to Erystia, once you
have collected the pieces of the key.
She gives you one final mission - you
are to claim the Eye of the Eternal
Darkness from the bottom of Lesimas
and foil Saimore's conspiracy. For
your contributions so far, Erystia
gives you Palmia Pride. Now, you dare
yourself to challenge the final depth
of Lesimas.

Around this time, Lanneire's gang
arrive at Saimore's laboratory in
Zanan. Barius has been waiting here,
only to tell them that what they are
seeking for will not be found here.
Even if they did find a support for
their case, nobody would listen to
Elea. And, just to taunt them more,
Barius reveals more truth behind the
Vindale Forest:

Rehm-Ido was an age of coprosperity.
Its civilizations were founded upon
the virtues of compassion and
brotherhood. However, there was a
group of heretics that could not
belong in this global community - the
Yutas. Near the end of Rehm-Ido, a
new substance was discovered from the
saps of certain trees: Ether. Ether
was environmentally friendly
alchemical agent that transmuted
various substances. Because the
Yutas' merchants had ownership over
vast territories, they became the
most competent Star Harvesters - the
term for ether-collectors, which was
considered a holy work at the time.
Through this work, the Yutas could
find their place in the global
community.

Nobody knows where Messera came from,
but it was known that ether worked as
an antibody to the virus. However,
over-harvesting ether weakened the
immune system of the forests. The
result was the Messera infestation of
the source of ether itself. The Yutas
were aware that this could happen -
but they were afraid that, if they
slowed down the ether harvest, they
would no longer be accepted by the
world.

After infecting the ether trees,
Messera spread across the world like
storms of dandelion seeds, rendering
Irva inhospitable to any life. The
only refuge was within the primeval
forests of the far east. People of
the Rehm-Ido started to call this
region Vindale - "Hope". At the end
of the mass extinction of all life
and civilizations, a miracle
happened: the Vindale woods produced
a storm of ether - the first
etherwinds. The storm washed across
the continents, weakening Messera and
rendering it dormant.

The Messera catastrophe concluded
with the division of Irva into two
biomes: the Vindale Forest, the
source of the world's ether, and the
lands outside the forest, where
Messera was suppressed. This event
nonetheless ended Rehm-Ido and
allowed for the beginning of Sierre
Terre. After ages, the peoples of
Irva adapted to the biomes and split
into those who can survive in the
Vindale Forest and those who could
not.

If the Vindale Forest is destroyed,
Messera will be revived. Irva will
die.

Hearing Barius' story, Lomias states:
though the true meaning of the
Vindale Forest in Irva has been
explained, Barius' intentions cannot
be understood. If this is a revenge
to those who spited the Elea, what
meaning is vengeance if nobody
survives to witness it- But Barius
says that this is no vengeance - this
is a revolution. Life will always
persist on Irva. Rehm-Ido may have
been an ideal era, but even
principles such as compassion and
brotherhood alienated the Yutas. If
Irva is to see an era where no people
will suffer the fate of the Yutas,
the dross must be burnt away -
Messera will destroy the weak and the
impure. This plan, unfortunately,
requires the destruction of the
Vindale Forest. Barius hopes that
Lanneire's gang will eventually
understand him.

Leaving the laboratory, the group
sets off to the Vindale Forest. In
the journey, Bethel asks Sevilis
something he has always been thinking
about: how does Sevilis know him- To
answer this, Sevilis reveals that he
is, in truth, Clyne, the crown prince
who was murdered by Saimore. His
story is as thus:

It was one girl from Altiheit who
started it all. And the blonde lad
who did not give into the pressure of
others and protected her. Bethel the
White Eagle was Elishe's hope and
admiration - and also the idol of
Saimore. Bethel and Elishe's
happiness was Saimore's ultimate
desire and justification. A daughter
of the Elea entering the Zanan palace
was impossible even in a dream, but
Bethel made it possible. Hearing
this, Bethel realizes that the Spirit
of Altiheit was none other than
Saimore.

Three days away from the Vindale
Forest, Sevilis criticizes the group
that returning to the forest won't
stop or even delay the invasion. On
top of that, Lomias may be able to
warn his people but nobody can be
sure what will happen afterward.
Sevilis understands that losing one's
homeland may be a tragic thing, but
in ways it could be a good thing.
After all, the destroyers of the
forest and the bystanders will, in
the end, understand what evil they
have committed and know regret. But
Lomias says that Lanneire will not
agree with that. Lanneire will
understand why Lomias is doing this -
if only to plant a single seed of
hope, they will strive to the very
end to protect the forest.

In the palace of Zanan, Saimore asks
Barius what it feels like to destroy
his own homeland. To this, Barius
says that it would have felt better
if the whole of Irva joined the
crime, but he regrets that this is
not the case. Regardless, the Elea
will be unarmed, so the invasion
itself will proceed without trouble.
Saimore trusts Barius to take care of
the matters once the Vindale Forest
has been destroyed. He plans to go
into hiding after all of this is
over, but there are not many albinos
in Irva. No matter - he will be happy
once he has irrevocably broken Irva.

By the time Lanneire's gang arrive at
the forest, the fires had already
begun. Lanneire asks Lomias to help
the refugees, while she herself will
delegate with Saimore though it seems
futile at this point. Seeing as how
the forest still breathes ether,
Sevilis and Bethel choose to follow
Lanneire.

But it is Barius that they find in
Saimore's place. When asked where
Saimore is, Barius answers that
nobody knows anymore and that he, the
supreme commander of the invasion
forces, will not compromise with
anybody. Still, Lanneire asks that,
though the fires have already
started, the Zanan forces leave the
helpless refugees alone. Barius
reiterates that he does not
compromise... but admits that he is
unlike Saimore in that he avoids
needless bloodshed. At this point, a
messenger reports to Barius: a squad
has lost its way among the smokes and
became stranded in the forest. Barius
orders to abandon them as the forest
is still alive - but Lanneire
volunteers to save them herself.

Barius laughs at Lanneire and Bethel
dissuades her, but Lanneire is
adamant; she must show that, in timse
of danger, different peoples can look
over their hatred and help each
other. Bethel is furious - if
Lanneire goes into the forest, if
Bethel can't protect her, will she
give him the same pain that Elishe
did when he lost her- Lanneire
responds: if she abandons the
soldiers now, she cannot be true to
herself. If Elishe, who loved Bethel,
could be here, Lanneire says she
would say the same. And, finally,
though Bethel's wings may be broken
now, Lanneire hopes that the White
Eagle will soar again one day.

With that, Lanneire says goodbye and
runs into the burning woods.

With Irva descending into chaos, you
pursued your own quest, sternly and
certainly. You reassemble the key to
the final seal and reach the ultimate
depth of Lesimas. There awaits Zeome
the False Prophet. You and Zeome
engage in a conclusive, final battle,
surely your most difficult yet.

You emerge victorious.

As you approach the altar on which
the Eye of the Eternal Darkness lays,
a handsome lad appears out of
nowhere. He tells you that your
arrival here was predetermined.
Though the gods may see it as nothing
but a facet of a supercomplex system,
mortals abide by a mysterious force
called fate. He appears human, but he
is certainly transcendent. There is a
sense of unknowable force and
darkness about him... He is Orphe,
the Chaos Child.

He reveals: as sanctioned by the
Eternal League of Nefia, what Zeome
was protecting is now yours. On the
altar is a single, lavishly decorated
book. None other than the Eye of the
Eternal Darkness itself. Orphe speaks
to the Eye: "Your new master may not
know your true worth, but unlike
Zeome, who looked into your pages to
laugh at peoples' lies and feel self
-satisfaction, your new master will
find another way to use your powers."
He turns to you again, saying that
the Eye of the Eternal Darkness is
the ultimate codex of all true
histories and, if it is lifted from
the altar, the magic will drain from
it. Finally, he warns that the owner
of the book will become the enemy of
all who would fabricate false
histories. Apparently, Orphe expects
you to please him, but it is fine if
you want to remove the book from
Lesimas. With that, he disappears.

Once uncertainties fade from you, you
reach toward the Eye of the Eternal
Darkness...!

----
Story of Elona
Interlude
…

The Vindale Forest is no more. The
peoples of Irva grow to accept
Saimore's actions, but the world
begins to change. Mysterious plagues
spread; crops wither; dry winds blow.
Once the realization hits, Barius
reveals a single Elea survivor from
the war. She testifies the existence
of Messera, the function of the
Vindale Forest and the need for
etherwinds. But without the forest,
Irva is becoming anathema to all
life. Hearing her testimony, some are
shocked; some are afraid; some are
regretful; but as always, most do not
care. Sierre Terre grows to be called
the Dark Age, but Barius lets
everyone know that the hope may still
be there - Saimore has created
another ether forest.

Zanan, the leader of the Vindale
invasion, goes through a civil war
and, in the void, Barius creates a
utopian community named Ros Lier. The
purpose of Ros Lier is to plant new
trees and to advocate peace across
borders. By wandering the forests,
people of Ros Lier become free of the
plagues. Ros Lier will become the
promised land, a paradise on Irva.

Three years later.

Three years' time has brought life
back to the streets. People act as if
the catastrophe has never happened.
Ros Lier, who profitted from bringing
salvation, has become corrupt over
time. The empires have warred over
the possession of the paradise. Even
in the dying world, the banner of
peace could not bring people
together. Pity, for after all that
trouble, conspiracies of many nations
flood the continents once again,
breeding new wars.

After Palmia's collapse, you have
left North Tyris for a while. But
now, you are returning to the
continent via a similar path - inside
cargo stowage. Perhaps you are off to
another lonely journey at the dawn of
Irva's chaos. You've spent a long
time deciphering the Eye of the
Eternal Darkness. As a result, you
have discovered that, in between the
materialistic eras of Eyth Terre and
Rehm-Ido, there existed the unknown,
mysterious era of Naku Domara. This
era was the one where the world was
introduced to the forces of chaos and
magic - it also holds the secret to
Nefia's existence.

Port Kapul. You feel the winds of
North Tyris and nostalgia hits you.
Before you is great trials and
adventures, toward the secret of the
Eternal League of Nefia.

Yerles


Yerles is a relatively young kingdom
that has gained power in the west and
opposes the older kingdom of Eulderna
and the Juere. As they are a much
newer society, thier views are much
different from traditional kingdoms
such as Zanan.

They worship an ancient scientific
civilization called Eyth Terre, which
had brought them to discover the
usage of firearms. While they are
realists and materialistic, they are
also adaptable to things that are
beyond their comprehension if it
benefits the kingdom, and are very
eager to learn and change their ways
to benefit themselves, much like the
Juere. Unlike their rivals, Yerles
are much more balanced instead of
magic oriented.

Yerles fit well in every class with
their outstanding learning ability.
They have a high learning attribute
and receive one additional skill
point with every level that they
gain.

In South Tyris, the Yerles military
base Melugas is part of the Melkawn
district.

Eulderna

Eulderna is one of the most ancient
races in Sierra Terre. Egoism and
elitism dominate every thought behind
actions of these perfectionists.
They, are suitable to caster or
hybrid classes as they are adept at
magics and using magical devices.
Euldernas have resistance to magic.

Eulderna is one of the most ancient
kingdoms in the world. They were also
the first country to explore and
research the ruins of Nefia, the
original race of Irva. It is one of
the superpowers in the world, and has
a hostile rivalry with the younger
kingdom of Yerles. Their experience
had also led the Eulderna to have a
higher charisma stat than the Yerles.
Members of this country are noted for
their egotism and elitism. They are
perfectionists and are a very magic
focused race, which reflects on their
high magic attribute and resistance
to it. Their economy seems to suffer
regularly, forcing them to inflate
their currency. Eulderna runs on an
aristocratic monarchy.

the etherwinds. So far in history,
the great nations of Irva have warred
with each other. But now, all nations
must embrace each other if Irva hopes
to destroy the Vindale Forest and the
Elea and survive another apocalypse.
Finally, Saimore demands that the
insignificant nation of Palmia should
support this alliance of great
empires.

Karune

Karune was once a glorious nation
east of North Tyris. However, it was
completely devastated by the Ether
Disease, which led to a wide majority
of it's citizens to flee the country.
The Vindale Forest and Karune are on
the same distant landmass of Asseria.

Long ago, early in the times when the
11th era of Sierra Terre began, the
land of Irva was plagued with wars.
There was a rain storm lasting for
over a month, and when the downpour
had ceased, the region of Karune was
slowly being overtaken by the
forests. These forests gave off a
strange fog, and creatures would grow
wild, and violent. This Elean forest
had swiftly consumed the land,
originating from the Vindale forest.
Many refugees had to flee to the
western reaches of the continent.

Karam the lonely wolf of Karune
An adventurer from Karune who was
hired to investigate Lesimas. Was
given the name "Lonely Wolf" because
he was mighty and competent but
aloof.

Elea

Elea, known by the other peoples of
the world as "Elves", live quietly in
their forests, far from man. Nimble
and graceful, their bows are of
legend, and their wizards have
forgotten more magic than many will
ever know. Still, the young ones from
time to time leave and go on
adventures, if only to fill their
memories for their long lives.

Elea have resistance to mana reaction
and the Ether disease.

Elea hail from the Vindale forest on
the Continent of Asseria. The forest
has a very central point in the
conflicts leading up to the current
state of politics. When the conflicts
before the 11th era of Sierra Terre
had concluded, there was a rainstorm
that lasted for over a month. When
the torrent stopped, the Elean
forests on the continent of Asseria
had overgrown, and was spreading like
a virus across the land. Eventually,
the forest had completely consumed
the nation of Karune, where the Ether
Disease had brought the country into
ruin. The forests stemmed from the
Vindale forest, the source of the
Etherwind.

Notable Elea

Lomias the messenger from Vindale
Wields the Bow of Vinderre.
Requesting Palmia's aid against
Zanan.

Larnneire the listener of wind
Wields the dagger surrounded by wind.
Requesting Palmia's aid against

Fairy

Fairies are cute, mysterious, and
fragile. Compared to the human race,
they are gifted with superior skills
of using magic and evading. In
contrast, the lack of physical power

it impossible for them to wear
equipment weighing more than 1s.

Bethel and Elishe

When the great empires were warring
with each other, young Bethel,
unsatisfied by the violence in the
world, met Elishe in the port city of
Altiheit. Elishe was an Elea - by the
time Bethel met her, people claimed
that she was the source of the
disease being spread across ships.
The rumors were vile enough that no
orphanage would take her in. By the
time Bethel knew what was going on,
he was already holding Elishe's hands
tight. The two of them had found a
shelter in one of the warehouses and
depended on each other like family.
All this while, every week, someone
would send them money, food and
clothes. Whenever Bethel and Elishe
asked the courier, they would only
say that they were from the "Spirit
of Altiheit". What the Spirit of
Altiheit sent them wasn't just food
or money, it was hope itself.

Before coming to Altiheit, Bethel
used to be a student of a military
academy, whose method operandi mainly
included using others as stepping
stones. But sickness got to him;
while he was off commission for two
months, being nursed by his little
sibling, the world has changed from
him. Bethel thought that everyone
looked on him with scorn and
contempt. But that is only because he
is judging himself by his own values.
He tried to change himself, but the
vicious past self would always laugh
at his attempts and tempt him back to
the academy. Tired of this self-
treachery and fighting, Bethel runs
away from his hometown. Elishe's eyes
were compassionate, forgiving and
embracing. For Bethel, Elishe
becomes the reason to live on. To
protect and provide for Elishe,
Bethel learns to accept his ways and
re-enter the competition in the
military academy. Seven years after
moving to Altiheit, Bethel becomes a
lieutenant of Zanan.

One autumn day, on the way back from
a play, Bethel and Elishe come across
a fire at a noble's mansion. Elishe
was worried that someone might still
be stuck inside the house - but,
suddenly, wooden support collapsed
and fell on Elishe. Bethel tried to
lift the support, but he could not do
it alone. He sought for help, but
nobody would step forward - Elishe
was, after all, an Elea. Bethel could
not find himself in a position to
criticize them; had this happened to
his rivals at the academy, he would
do the exact same thing. In the end,
the fire and the weight killed
Elishe. When Bethel retrieved
Elishe's burnt body, he wept - and
froze in time.
