Prologue

The Pandemonium.

A shroud of evil that descends upon the land of Erden once every 100 years.

A wave of havoc and carnage, led by an immortal being known as the Eternal,

that devastates all it touches.

Westland, 2218.

The previous Pandemonium...

was a mere 18 years ago...

I hear footsteps...
It's getting closer...

Girl

Theo!

Theo

There's no time, Riz! It's coming! Just leave
me and go!

???

GROOOAAAAARGH!!

Girl

Take one more step, I dare you!

???

GROOOAAAAARGH!!

Horror

Girl

Layla! Layla, please wake up!

Girl

How could this have happened?

Boy

I tried the houses, Riz.

Boy

Everyone inside was torn to pieces.
And their faces...I couldn't...

Boy

What happened while we were away?

Girl

Whatever did this can't be human.

Girl

Wait, I hear a voice!

Boy & Girl

!!??

????

...

Girl

Quick Theo, hide!

Girl

I hear footsteps...
It's getting closer...

Hunter

The wind is getting stronger...
Finn, we should get back to the village.

Finn

Look, over there in the bushes!
It hasn't noticed us yet!

Finn

It's a Lightling! I can't believe I finally found
one. I've got this, Elran!

Elran

There's no stopping you when you get that
look... Alright, make it quick!

Horror

Hunter

The wind is getting stronger...
Finn, we should get back to the village.

Finn

Elran, over there in the bushes.

Finn

It's a Lightling. Good, it hasn't noticed
us yet.

Finn

I've got this, Elran!

Elran

There's no stopping you
when you get that look...

Elran

All right, make it quick!

Tutorial

You can always fight monsters in bushes, but a shaking bush means there is a Unique monster inside.

Tutorial

Wow, that Lightling is fast! Now it's your turn. Powerful skills flash when their conditions are met, but let's use a basic attack to weaken it.

Now select the Lightling as your target.

Nice! Monsters are easier to capture when they have low HP. Catch the Lightling!

You captured a Lightling and found a weapon! Add Lightling to your team and equip the weapon to Finn.

Elran

Nice one! If you train and evolve that little
guy, he'll become a pretty powerful ally.

Finn

These two days crawling around in the
woods finally paid off!

Finn

Thanks for having my back, Elran!

Elran

No need to be humble. You're the best
hunter in Rossé—you didn't need my help.

???

ROOOOAAAARGH!!

Finn

What was that!?

Elran

The whole forest just shook... Is there
a monster that big around here?

Finn

Whatever it is, it sounds like it's on the
hunt... Someone could be in danger!

Elran

Don't be reckless, Finn. There's been some
really aggressive monsters around lately.

Elran

I'm heading back to Rossé, and you should
too.

Finn

If my dad were here, he wouldn't ignore
something like this.

Finn

And neither will I!

Elran

Huh? Finn, your eyes just...

Elran

I'm probably seeing things. Do what you
like, I'm getting out of here!

Monster

ROOOOAAAARGH!!

Finn

It came from that way!

Horror

Finn

All right! I got it!

Finn

Elran? Where did you go?

Finn

Are you over there?

Tutorial

This looks like a tough battle!

Let's learn how to use skills effectively!

The Skill Display contains key information about your skills.

This is the TU (Time Unit) Cost of this skill.

TU Cost determines the cooldown time after you use a skill.

This is the Turn Order Bar.

Characters are placed in order of the amount of TU remaining before their next move.

Right now, the enemy boss is at 125 TU.

Using a 100 TU skill like this one would...

Push it back by 100 TU, allowing it to get its next turn before the boss.

Using a 200 TU skill would...

Push it back by 200 TU, making its next turn after the boss.

You can always get more Info about Skills by tapping here!

Finn

What's a Desertle doing here in Rigland?
They don't usually attack unprovoked...

Girl

Thank you for your help...

Finn

I'm just glad you're okay. I'm Finn. And you
are...?

Girl

Rizette.

Rizette

This is my brother, Theo.

Theo

Thank you...

Finn

What are you two doing out here with such
light equipment?

Rizette

...We're from Westcarte, in the north.

Rizette

A pack of monsters attacked our village,
and...

Rizette

We were the only ones to escape.

Finn

What...? Monsters attacked your
village!?

Rizette

There was a demon... I think she was
controlling them...

Rizette

She just waved her hand, and everyone
was...

Finn

...

Finn

It isn't safe here. My village is close by,
let's talk there!

Knight

Captain Ludmilla, we have eliminated all
of the hostiles!

Ludmilla

What about the villagers? Have they all
been evacuated?

Knight

Yes. The injured are being treated on a hill
east of here.

Ludmilla

It is practically a miracle that no lives were
lost.

Ludmilla

Has there been any word from the
detachment we sent to Westcarte?

Knight

Yes... By the time they arrived, the village
was destroyed. There were no survivors.

Ludmilla

...

Ludmilla

Whoever commanded those monsters to
attack must still be somewhere close by.

Ludmilla

Find them!

Knight

Yes ma'am!

Ludmilla

So the veil of evil has fallen on this land
once more...

Ludmilla

Finn

What... What happened here!? Where is
everyone!?

Rizette

Did that woman attack Rossé too!?

Ludmilla

Are you three from this village?

Finn

I am... Rizette and Theo are from
Westcarte...

Ludmilla

I see...

Ludmilla

I am Captain Ludmilla of the Rigland
Red Dragon Knights, Third Regiment.

Ludmilla

We have evacuated the people of Rossé.
Don't worry, they are safe.

Ludmilla

We...were not able to reach Westcarte in
time. I am truly sorry...

Rizette

...

Ludmilla

Rossé has also suffered heavy damage.
It will take time for the village to recover.

Theo

For Rossé and Westcarte to be attacked
simultaneously... Captain, is this...?

Ludmilla

I am afraid so. The Pandemonium has
begun once more.

Theo

But it's only supposed to happen once a
century...

Theo

The last one only ended 18 years ago,
didn't it!?

Finn

The Pandemonium...!?

???

C-Captain!

Ludmilla

...?

Ludmilla

Alfred! What's wrong!?

Alfred

They are coming from the north, my whole
unit was—

Ludmilla

Alfred!!

???

I don't enjoy having my patients stolen
from me before I arrive, little knight.

Theo

R-Riz...

Rizette

That's the woman who attacked Westcarte!!

Rizette

You... You killed everyone!! Why!?

Ludmilla

Who are you!?

Demon

Ossia, the Illustrious Plaguebearer...

Ossia

I am an Aeon Lord, blessed with the
Eternity of the great Aeon Emperor ♪

Ludmilla

An Aeon Lord... One of the immortal
harbingers of the Pandemonium!?

Ludmilla

Are you the one leading monsters to
attack villages!?

Ossia

So you've evacuated everyone? You knights
are so rude.

Ossia

No matter. I will simply have to hunt for
them after I finish with you!

Theo

Urgh!

Rizette

Theo!!

Finn

Stop!!

Horror

Knight

Captain Ludmilla!
We have eliminated all of the hostiles!

Ludmilla

Alert the troops.

Ludmilla

We shall resume the advance
on Westcarte in five minutes!

Knight

Yes ma'am!

Ludmilla

To think we'd get stranded here...
And what's worse...

Ludmilla

The monsters have gone berserk.
They're acting so unnaturally.

Ludmilla

Almost like they're being controlled
by something...

Ludmilla

Could it be that it has begun?
If so, we need to get to Westcarte ASAP!

Ludmilla

...!?

Finn

What happened here!?
Rossé...my home...

Ludmilla

What do you mean your home?
Nobody lives here.

Finn

What are you talking about!?
I've lived here all my life!

Finn

What exactly is going on here!?

Ludmilla

You must be mistaken.
This place was destroyed 18 years ago.

Ludmilla

It's been a ghost town ever since.

Ludmilla

Everyone knows this.

Finn

No way... That can't be...
Then what are you doing here?

Ludmilla

We received a distress signal
from Westcarte.

Ludmilla

We were on our way from Rigland
when we made a brief stop here.

Ludmilla

We got held up by a monster attack.
We must get to Westcarte post haste.

Rizette

You're too late.

Ludmilla

Excuse me?

Rizette

Westcarte is gone. Destroyed.
By something unknown.

Rizette

My brother and I are the only survivors
and now he's missing...

Ludmilla

I see... Please, forgive me.
If only we'd gotten there in time...

Ludmilla

Are you okay?

Rizette

I'm okay... It's not your fault.

Rizette

But we need to find my brother.
We got separated during our escape.

Ludmilla

Understood. I'll alert the troops.
I promise, we will bring him back to you.

Ludmilla

Oh, and my name is Ludmilla.

Ludmilla

I am the Captain of the Rigland
Red Dragon Knights, Third Regiment.

Finn

Captain Ludmilla!
Please tell me what happened here!

Finn

...!?

Ossia

My, what lively specimens we have here.
Be patient, your turn will come soon enough♪

Finn

I-I can't even scratch her!

Ludmilla

S-So the rumors of the immortality of the
Aeon Lords are true...

Rizette

What did you do to Theo!?

Ossia

You two escaped from that filthy village in
the middle of my examination, didn't you?

Ossia

I'm rather curious about how you broke
my aegis barrier... Oh, I have an idea!

Ossia

Let's see how you two react to a cocktail of
my personal concoctions ♪

Finn

She's going to kill them...

Finn

I can't watch this happen!

Finn

But if I close my eyes...

???

If you close your eyes...

Finn

I would be betraying everything that I
stand for!

???

Open your eyes. Do not look away from
injustice, or from those who need your help.

???

Come now, Valiant Red. Open your
eyes, and fight!

Horror

The door is locked.

Something is watching you.

Finn

Don't you take another step!!

Ossia

What!?

Ossia

Flames!? No... Human, how are you
doing that?

Ossia

Where is all this power coming from!?

Rizette

Finn's eyes, they're...!

Finn

I won't let you hurt anyone else!!

Horror

Rizette

He's stopped breathing!
No, Finn, stay with me!

Demon

Oh my pet, there's no need for tears.
Don't worry, you'll be next.

Ludmilla

No! Take me instead.
Take me and let the girl go!

Demon

Heh heh, a line befitting the Captain
of the Red Dragon Knights.

Demon

That's not how bargaining works, dear.
You need to offer something worthwhile.

Demon

Just look at the state you're in right now,
I could squash you with my little finger!

Demon

Not to worry. Once I'm done with this one,
I'll make sure you follow suit.

Finn

...shut up.

Rizette

Finn!!! But how!? Your heart had stopped!
How are your wounds all healed?

Finn

You won't get away with this!

Demon

Heh, looks like you've finally come to.
This was certainly well worth my trip.

Finn

No more talking!
You will pay for all the lives you've stolen!

Ossia

Gyaaaah!!

Ossia

A-A wound! A blemish upon my perfect
body!! How is this possible!?

Ossia

Glowing red eyes... I-It can't be! Not in this
rundown village...!!

Finn

My eyes...?

Finn

Urgh... They're burning... It feels like my
whole body is burning!!

Ossia

I am superior...! I won't have a mere
human injure me! I won't have it!!

Ludmilla

...!!

Ludmilla

(That boy... He drove off an Aeon Lord!?)

Finn

S-Stop! Get back here! Urgh...

Ludmilla

The Crimson Crest...

Finn

...What?

Ludmilla

A blood-red crest with the power to
dispel evil... I thought it was a myth...

Finn

A crest...?

Ludmilla

Yes... A crest so powerful...

Ludmilla

It is said to be the key to ending the
Pandemonium itself.

Finn

Ending the Pandemonium...!?

Rizette

Theo...? Theo! No... Please, open
your eyes! Theo!!

Finn

Rizette? What's wrong with Theo!?

Ludmilla

Let me take a look at him.

Horror

Demon

...

Ludmilla

What is this power...?
Not even I stood a chance against her...

Demon

Heh heh, not bad. Not bad at all.
You've managed to hurt me, an Aeon Lord.

Demon

Truly a specimen worthy of further study...

Ossia

My name is Ossia.
I'm sure we will meet again...soon...

Finn

Wait! Get back here!
Damn, she got away.

Ludmilla

Don't bother chasing her. She's wounded,
so she won't be a threat for a while.

Ludmilla

And we're not in any position
to do anything reckless right now.

Ludmilla

Also...what was that power just now?
And it looks like you're completely healed.

Finn

I...don't know. I fell unconscious...
and then I had this strange vision...

Finn

And then...

Finn

Ugh...my eyes...they feel on fire...

Ludmilla

Hey Finn, your eyes...
Have they always been red?

Finn

What? No, I have blue eyes...

Ludmilla

Red eyes and a mysterious power...

Ludmilla

Could it be...the Crimson Crest?
I thought it was just a myth.

Ludmilla

The crest with the power
to exorcize demons and dispel evil...

Ludmilla

If that woman really is an Aeon Lord,
then maybe it is true...

Ludmilla

Such an immortal being could not be hurt
by mere ordinary magic.

Ludmilla

At any rate, our first priority
is to return to Rigland.

Ludmilla

I must take you to
the Red Dragon Knight Headquarters.

Ludmilla

Oh, and I forgot to ask.
Would you tell me your names?

Rizette

I'm Rizette. I'm from Westcarte.

Finn

My name is Finn.
This is—I mean, Rossé is my hometown.

Finn

Rizette, was Rossé really destroyed
18 years ago?

Rizette

...It was, as far as I know.

Finn

I don't believe it.
How is this possible?

Ludmilla

This is only speculation,
but perhaps the Crimson Crest

Ludmilla

has somehow affected your memory?

Ludmilla

I won't tell you to calm down right now,
but there is one thing I must say.

Ludmilla

You saved our lives.
Thank you, Finn.

Rizette

You saved me too, Finn. Thank you.
You must be exhausted. Please take it easy.

Finn

I don't quite know what's happening here.
I was all ready to fight and then...

Finn

And then I started hallucinating...

Finn

No, let's think about that later.
We need to get ourselves patched up.

Finn

And, uh... We should probably change
too...

Ludmilla

!!??

Ludmilla

Thanks, Rizette.
You've sure got a hand for mending.

Rizette

Oh no, it's the only thing I'm good for.
It took me a while, but it should be good..

Rizette

And thanks for the healing elixir.
I've only ever seen them in books before.

Ludmilla

Don't mention it.
The Red Dragon Knights made sure

Ludmilla

to source a large number of elixirs
in preparation for the coming calamity.

Ludmilla

I never thought we'd have to use them
so soon, though.

Rizette

Captain Ludmilla,
are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Rizette

Do you think it has begun?

Ludmilla

I'm not entirely sure...

But with all these monsters about
and the appearance of that Aeon Lord...

Ludmilla

Perhaps it really has begun...

Ludmilla

The once-in-a-century calamity
to destroy the world...

Ludmilla

The Pandemonium.

Ludmilla

But it's too soon. It's only been 18 years
since the last Pandemonium.

Finn

Hey, um...can I open my eyes yet?

Rizette

Sorry! You can open your eyes now.
Oh, hey! Your eyes are back to normal.

Rizette

I guess the red was only temporary.

Ludmilla

We'll head for Rigland when you're ready.

Ludmilla

I must report to the Headquarters
everything that has happened here.

Ludmilla

I'm sure you'll find your brother
at the capital, Rizette.

Rizette

Yeah, I'm sure he made it out okay...

Rizette

That Aeon Lord said she recognized me,
but I don't think she knows about Theo.

Finn

You're right, I'm sure he's fine!

Ludmilla

Then let's head for Rigland.

Theo

...

Rizette

Theo...

Ludmilla

There seems to be no immediate threat to
his life.

Finn

What's wrong with him? He just looks like
he's sleeping...

Ludmilla

(These symptoms...)

Ludmilla

Rizette, you should bring Theo to the
healers in Rigland. I will escort you there.

Rizette

Okay... Th-Thank you, ma'am.

Ludmilla

Finn, was it? What are you...

Finn

...

Finn

(If we let Ossia go, she's going to hurt more
people! I have to stop her...)

Finn

Captain Ludmilla, please let me come with
you!

Ludmilla

I was planning on it. We have many things
to discuss.

Ludmilla

My knights have already begun escorting
the people of Rossé to Rigland.

Finn

...Thank you, ma'am!

Ludmilla

I do not believe we should travel in this
weather at night with Theo, though.

Ludmilla

We should make camp here for the evening,
and start fresh in the morning.

Finn

Yes ma'am!

Rizette

...

Finn

(I don't know why this is happening, but I'm
not just going to sit here while it does!)
