Long ago, when the world was at peace and magic was yet unknown to man, a beautiful isle called Illusia floated in the center of the Inner Sea. Over the island towered the Great Tree, the source of all life. There it had stood since the beginning of the world. But over time, the Tree gradually turned to stone and slept as though death had come at last.

So unfolds the story of how a boy came to wield a sacred sword and how a maiden became a goddess—entwining the fate of spirits, mortals, and the entire world into an engaging and entertaining tale of ultimate hope.

Four difficulty levels, gameplay-altering emblems and a battle arena with collectable pets add customization to the adventure and increase replay value!
