4. Story of the game.
This is the basic plot of the game. I have only included the important
parts, as including every bit would take me 11,000 years. If there is some
part missing, or something you want me to add, let me know.
The opening video shows a bunch of soldiers running about and destroying
a village. A man appears and goes up to a sleeping girl. He puts some kind of
stone near her head and it glows. The man says that that is who they were
looking for and orders her to be taken away. He asks a mysterious hooded man
what the purpose is, but gets no answer.
Dart is a young man who is wandering about in search of the Black
Monster who he holds responsible for the destruction of his hometown, Neet and
the death of his parents. On his journey, he suddenly sees a lot of soldiers
running about. Suddenly he sees a huge dragon about to attack him. He runs and
is rescued by a mysterious woman. This woman informs Dart that the soldiers
were returning after destroying the village of Seles. Dart says that that is
his village and runs off towards Seles.
When Dart arrives in Seles, he finds it completely ruined. He talks to
the people there and finds out that Sandora soldiers had kidnapped his
childhood friend, Shana and destroyed the village. Dart manages to find out
that Shana is being held at the dangerous Hellena Prison and is urged on by
the villagers to go rescue her. Dart decides to go to Hellena and rescue
Shana.
Dart arrives at Hellena to find it well guarded. He manages to sneak in
on the back of a merchant's buggy. Inside he looks around for Shana and
eventually meets Lavitz, a knight in the service of King Albert, king of
Basil. Lavitz was captured by Sandora and managed to break out. Lavitz and
Dart agree to join forces in trying to rescue Shana and breaking out.
Eventually, they find Shana and manage to escape. The hooded man is seen
demanding the warden to find the girl.
When they leave Hellena, they are chased by Sandora soldiers and cannot
go to Seles. Lavitz suggests that they go to bale and ask King Albert for
help. He also says that their minister might know something about the Black
Monster and so Dart agrees to go.
When the trio arrive at Bale they are greeted warmly and meet King
Albert. In his courtroom the hooded man is present. Dart asks the minister
about the Black Monster. The minister doesn't know much about the Black
Monster, but says that it appeared after the Dragon Campaign had ended. The
Dragon Campaign was a war for survival between Humans and Winglies 11,000
years ago. The humans used the help of Dragons and converted themselves into
Dragoons and beat the Winglies. King Albert tells Lavitz that Sandora was
going to attack through Hoax and they were going to use dragon, a legendary
monster. Lavitz gets sent to Hoax and Dart and Shana decide to go with him. In
Bale, they hear about Lavitz's father who was killed due to the betrayal of
his best friend.
The trio arrive at Hoax and offer their services. Dart and Lavitz are
appointed to keep guard at night. Suddenly they fall under attack and are
engaged in battle. A huge creature appears and challenges the heroes. This
creature is named Kongol, and he is a Giganto. Dart and Lavitz fight bravely
when suddenly the mysterious woman who saved Dart flies in and says something
about a red eye dragoon spirit. Suddenly, dart undergoes a transformation and
sprouts wings. Kongol is defeated, but vows to return. The woman, who is named
Rose, explains that Dart had a dragoon spirit, which meant that he was a
dragoon. She says that humans have no chance in beating Dragon, but dragoons
do. Hoax has been destroyed and the heroes decide that the only way to win is
to defeat Dragon. Rose joins the group and they set out to beat Dragon.
On the way they to the Dragon's nest, they encounter many enemies. While
walking, Shana suddenly acts strange and runs away. When the rest catch up to
her, she is standing next to a strange thing and says that a voice in her head
commanded her to go. Rose says that the thing is a Virage, which was the trump
card the Winglies used during the Dragon Campaign. Suddenly the thing comes to
life and our heroes have to fight him. They defeat him and when they are
walking away, it comes back to life and tries to attack Shana. But, a light
from her head wards it away. No one can explain it, so they go along.
Eventually, they reach the Dragon's Nest, where Shana starts feeling
sick. They rest for a while and move on, eventually coming face to face with a
guy. This man introduces him as Greham, the best friend of Lavitz's father.
Lavitz confronts him and he says that they would have to fight him and his
friend, Dragon. Greham, himself turns into a dragoon. The heroes eventually
beat both adversaries and in his dying moments, Greham shows remorse. When he
dies, his dragoon spirit gets transferred to Lavitz, who is now a dragoon. All
this time Shana has being getting sicker and sicker and they decide that bale
is too far off. They decide to go to a near town called Lohan where there is a
great doctor.
In Lohan, the doctor examines Shana and says that her mind is poisoned.
The only way to rescue her would be to get some rare Dragoni Plant. The heroes
find out where they could get some and start moving. They eventually meet a
bandit called Drake and a strange woman called Shirley. Rose and Shirley
appear to know each other. Shirley says that she doesn't have any Dragoni
Plant, but has the white dragoon spirit. She says that the power from that,
combined with another dragoon spirit could heal Shana. They thank her and go
back to Lohan.
Back in Lohan, Dart puts the white dragoon spirit on Shana and prepares
to take out his dragoon spirit. But, the white spirit glows and Shana gets up.
Rose says that Shana, too has the power and is now a dragoon. Before leaving
the heroes decide to go to the Lohan Arena. There, Dart enters himself into a
tournament to decide the world's strongest man. Here he meets an old friend,
Haschel. They decide to meet in the final and prepare for the tournament. Dart
eventually reaches the final and talks to Haschel. Haschel says that he lost
to a great fighter with platinum hair. His name is Lloyd. Dart faces Lloyd in
the final and gets his ass kicked. Lloyd eventually leaves. Haschel says that
he is looking for his long lost daughter and has been doing so for twenty
years. All this time Shana keeps dropping hints that she is in love with Dart,
but Dart considers her to be his baby sister. Lavitz suggests that the group
return to Bale to give a report to King Albert. But they hear that Sandora had
attacked Bale and taken King Albert prisoner. The heroes decide to go to
Hellena and rescue King Albert. Haschel joins the group.
In Hellena, the warden threatens to kill King Albert by dawn. The heroes
eventually reach there and start fighting with the warden. They beat the
warden, but see the hooded man stealing something from King Albert. Lavitz
gets pissed and charges the hooded man. The man's hood falls off and it is
Lloyd. He simply raises a sword and in one blow, kills Lavitz!! Rose says that
it is the Dragon Buster, which can kill dragoons, and that she didn't know
Lloyd had it. Lloyd disappears and the heroes mourn the death of Lavitz.
They return to Seles to discuss their next move. King Albert says that
Lloyd who was his advisor stole the moon gem, which is a treasured object that
supposedly belonged to the Winglies. After the Dragon Campaign, the Winglies
transferred these objects to different kingdoms as a token of peace. The
heroes however decide that the war is the immediate concern and figure out how
to end it. They decide to go to the Black Castle, which is the home of Emperor
Doel, ruler of Sandora.
At Doel, they hear a lot of people who don't like Emperor Doel and want
him overturned. Even the man who initially kidnapped Shana wants him changed.
They eventually reach his castle and make their way in. They encounter Kongol
who says he won't be beaten again. The heroes however do beat him and Kongol
asks them to kill him. Rose wants to, but Dart prevents her and spares
Kongol's life. Kongol wonders why they are so kind. They reach the inside and
meet Emperor Doel, who turns out to be Lavitz's uncle. They fight and beat
Doel and Doel says that Lloyd was the one behind the kidnapping and that he is
headed towards the western country of Tiberoa. Doel's dragoon spirit gets
transferred to Haschel who is a dragoon now.
The heroes arrive at Tiberoa at a town called Fletz and look everywhere
for Lloyd. In one scene Lloyd is shown actually helping a lady in distress.
Anyway, the heroes can't find him, but learn about Princess Emille. She is the
older daughter of King Zior, ruler of Tiberoa and was a very gentle person
until six months ago. Since then she has undergone a personality change, that
has left the people confused. They also learn about the Moon that Never Sets
and hear that every 108 years, a moon child descends on earth to bring peace
on earth. But, once the black monster arrived for some reason. Since the
heroes couldn't find Lloyd, they decide to go to Donau, a neighboring town
under King Zior. On the way they encounter members of the Gehrich Gang, who
have been terrorizing the nation. They fight and beat them, but one of the
members, Mappi manages to steal Dart's dragoon spirit. They decide to go to
Donau to find more about the Gehrich Gang.
In Donau, they meet a woman called Kate who got a letter saying that her
fiancée Lynn had gone to talk to the Gehrich Gang about the bandit situation.
They decide to show the letter to the mayor, who happens to be Lynn's father.
The mayor becomes upset and asks the heroes to help him. Dart agrees and finds
out that to get to the Gehrich Gang hideout, they had to cross the Valley of
Corrupted Gravity. To do that, they needed permission from King Zior. As they
are leaving, they meet a strange girl who beats up some bandits. This girl
introduces herself as Meru and when she hears that the group is going to
rescue Lynn, she joins them.
Back in Fletz, the heroes make their way to the king's castle. They talk
to the king and receive permission to go to the Valley. They also meet
Princess Lisa, the younger sister of Emille. She tells them that Emille
changed when they went horseback riding six months ago. She got lost and was
found unconscious. When she came to, she had changed. Lisa feels that her
change has something to do with the Gehrich Gang and asks dart to check it
out. Dart agrees to do so.
The heroes reach the Valley of Corrupted Gravity, which is a strange
place. Here they see the full form of Virage and Shana starts hearing voices
again. She asks them to run, but they refuse. Virage suddenly comes to life
and the heroes are engaged in battle. They eventually subdue Virage, but he
once again tries to attack Shana and the same light from her head saves her,
killing Virage. No one can explain it and they decide to move on.
They eventually reach the hideout of the Gehrich Gang, which is the home
of Giganto. There they see a gangster doing martial arts style poses. Haschel
recognizes it as one from his school, the Rouge School. He asks the gangster
where he learned that and gets the answer as Gehrich, the leader of the Gang.
Haschel recalls kicking Gehrich out from his school twenty years ago. They
eventually get in and meet Gehrich and Mappi. After a battle, they beat them.
Gehrich suddenly spots a humongous pillar breaking and about to fall on them.
He asks Haschel to run, but it's too late. Suddenly the pillar stops and the
heroes see that Kongol had saved them. Kongol says that humans had killed his
kind earlier and wanted a world where every species was equal. He felt Emperor
Doel would be the man to do it. Since Dart killed Doel, he thinks Dart would
be a good leader and wants to join the group. Dart agrees. Gehrich tells
Haschel that the Princess Emille in Fletz is a fake and the real one is hidden
somewhere in the castle. The fake princess wants to get the moon dagger, which
is supposed to be handed over to Princess Emille on her 20th birthday, which is
that day. The heroes are reminded of Lloyd and decide to hurry back. They
manage to rescue Lynn and get back dart's dragoon spirit.
Back in Fletz, the town is preparing for the ceremony. Emille has
replaced the real knights with bandit knights and so the heroes sneak into
Princess Lisa's room. They tell her what happened and they decide to look for
Emille. They find her hidden magically behind a portrait and rush to the
ceremony. They arrive just in time to stop the hand over. But the fake Emille
manages to steal the dagger and runs towards a window. She reveals herself to
be a woman named Lenus and says that she stole the dagger for her love. The
heroes fight her and find out that she has unnatural strengths. They do manage
to defeat her, though. Lenus however simply laughs and jumps out of the
window. She appears with wings and flies away. Rose comments that she is a
Wingly. King Zior tells that they need to get the dagger back and is sending
his best battleship, the Queen Fury to do so. He invites Dart and his friends
to join the mission. They agree.
They go to Donau to board the ship where they hear rumors about a
Phantom Ship and a Sea Dragon. They still board the ship and start sailing.
Inside the heroes talk about their journey. Suddenly they see a strange ship
approaching them. This ship crashes into them. Meru remarks that it is the
Phantom Ship. Shana is inside and is attacked by some strange skeletons.
Suddenly two knights appear and save her and disappear. The heroes decide to
explore the ship. Inside, they meet the ghost captain of the ship, who says
that the black monster caused the damage in the ship. Because they couldn't
protect their princess, Princess Loauvia they weren't able to fully die, He
asks the heroes to save their spirits. When they come out of his room, two
knights appear and try to attack Rose. The heroes comment about the cruelness
of the Black Monster and Rose seems to get upset. She covers up quickly
though. They go into a room where suddenly, a bunch of ghost knights appear
and fight them. Once they are beaten, the ghost commander looks at Shana and
says that he is happy that princess Loauvia is alive and disappears. Shana
doesn't understand what's going on. They go to the next room where a ghost
nanny sees Shana and has the same reaction. Suddenly there is a huge noise and
the ship starts sinking. The heroes run to the Queen Fury, but Dart slips and
barely hangs on to the edge of the boat. Rose tries to help him, but they both
fall into the ocean.
Rose is seen taking care of Dart on a beach. Dart is unconscious. Rose
says that she is attracted to dart cause he reminds her a lot of Zieg. A video
is shown where the Dragon Campaign is going on. In the video, both Rose and
Zieg are fighting as dragoons. Zieg somehow gets killed and tells Rose to
leave him. Rose is very sad. In the present Rose realizes that Dart is not
Zieg and goes to sleep. In the morning a fisherman finds them and takes them
to his house. He says that his mother is sick and needs to go to the
neighboring town of Fueno. But, they can't because the way is blocked by the
Sea Dragon. Dart helps them reach Fueno without meeting the Dragon. In Fueno
Dart and Rose meet up with the rest of the gang. There they find out that six
months ago, a lot of monsters started appearing at the area, mainly at Prison
Island. The Sea Dragon appeared at the same time. They realize that it was the
same time Lenus joined the Gehrich gang and think there is a connection. They
decide to go to Prison Island.
Once they reach Prison Island, they see Lenus there with Lloyd. She
gives the Moon Dagger to Lloyd and Lloyd says that his plan is going
perfectly. Dart and the others show up and demand an explanation. Lloyd says
that he is the one who destroyed Dart's village and killed Lavitz. He says
that he is going to the country of Mille Seseau and challenges the heroes to
follow him. He says that it is the will of Emperor Diaz, who was an emperor
11,000 years ago. But, Lenus says that she is going to kill them and attacks
them with the help of the Sea Dragon. Eventually they beat both of them. As
Lenus dies, she says that her life is for Lloyd. Meru gets the water dragoon
spirit and is now a dragoon. They decide to go back to Fletz and give a report
to King Zior.
Back at Fletz, they are treated as heroes. There even is a banquet
thrown in their honor. It is here that Dart and Shana reveal their love for
each other. So do King Albert and princess Emille. Finally they make their way
to Mille Seseau.
They arrive at a town called Furni. Here they see a gathering where the
resident knight offers a reward to the person who could kill the white wolf,
Kamuy who is hiding in the Evergreen Forest. He also wants a kid from the
village, Teo to be returned. Kamuy is Teo's pet and has apparently become
savage. Dart gets involved and decides to go. Before they leave, they go to
the mayor's house. Here Haschel gets some proof that his long lost daughter is
possibly the same woman as dart's late mother. Also, Shana has a strange
reaction to the Moon that Never Sets and the light in her head starts to glow
again. The next day, they leave for the Evergreen Forest.
At the forest, they find Teo with a huge wolf. Teo says that Kamuy isn't
wrong, but Kamuy attacks a knight and runs off with Teo. Dart and the others
follow and find them again. Kamuy attacks one more person and Dart decides to
fight him. They beat him and Kamuy is almost dead, when Shana cures him with
her dragoon spirit. Kamuy turns into a small, lovable cub and everyone is
happy. No one knows, though what caused the change in Kamuy. The heroes go
back to get a reward of 500G. (Note: I don't know what the point of this
mission was. Maybe it's just a side quest, but I'm not sure if it is related
to the main story). Anyway, they move towards Deningrad, the capital. On the
way, Rose and Meru leave the group saying that they have errands. Meru says
she is meeting her parents.
Once they arrive in Deningrad, they learn that Mille Seseau is ruled by
Queen Theresa and four sacred sisters. They go to a church where the bishop
tells them about the Divine Tree. It is a tree that was planted by the
creator, Soa in the beginning of time. This tree bore 108 fruits, which were
different forms of life. Thus there were 108 different species of life on
earth. The bishop tells the gang to learn more by going to the National
Library. The group decides that they might learn something about Lloyd and
decide to go.
In the library, they learn a lot of things. After the Dragon Campaign,
humans controlled the planet. They divided it into 4 pieces and established
three countries: Serdio, Tiberoa and Mille Seseau. The fourth part was the
untouched land, the Death Frontier. After the Campaign, each country received
one divine moon object from the Winglies as a sign of peace. These objects are
supposed to contain special magical powers, but no one knows what. They also
learn that they are the first dragoons since the Dragon Campaign. There were 7
dragoons who led the humans to victory. After that they vanished along with
the dragoon spirits. Dragons are the 2nd most powerful species of the 107
created by the Divine Tree. But they lacked intelligence and were controlled
by humans. They fought against Virages who were controlled by Winglies. The
group realizes that Winglies, Divine Moon Objects, Dragons and Dragoons all
had something to do with the Dragon Campaign. Dart wonders if Lloyd had
something to do with it, too. They also learn that at the peak of the Winglies
supremacy, they even ruled Gods. The dragoons freed the Gods and ever since,
the Gods have been looking over Earth as The Moon that Never Sets. The
librarian mentions that they have some stuff from the time the Black Monster
attacked. Dart is obviously interested and goes to look. The librarian says
that he knows of one survivor from Neet: The Second Sacred Sister, Luanna. He
also tells Dart about the legend of the Black Monster and The Moon Child. He
says that every 108 years the Moon that Never Sets glows red and a Moon Child
descends on the earth to purify everyone. The Black Monster was also created
by the Gods, but no one knows why. The Monster hates the Gods and wants to
destroy them. The Black Monsters main goal is to hunt down and kill every Moon
Child.
The scene shifts to Neet where Rose is seen arriving. She says that Neet
hadn't changed. She meets Sister Luanna and learns about the incident at Neet.
The Black Monster was looking for Princess Louvia, the Moon Child. He couldn't
find her, but had to destroy everything else. Sister Luanna survived, but was
blinded. She got the power to see the souls of humans though and heal them.
Rose offers to accompany her back to Deningrad.
Meru is seen arriving at her home. She meets an old friend, Guaraha.
Guaraha suddenly sprouts wings and tells Meru that she shouldn't have left the
place. She had broken a rule. Meru decides to talk to The Ancestor. She goes
in and there we find that the place is filled with Winglies. Apparently Meru
is one too! Everyone is upset that she left to join the humans and refuse to
let her in. Before she leaves, Guaraha says that everyone is nervous because
the earth has been surging. That has caused animals to go savage. The reason
is that the Winglies are anticipating the return of a Dragon. But this Dragon
is supposedly the strongest of all, the Divine Dragon. Meru says that they
have the Dragon Buster and the Dragon Block Staff. But Guaraha says that they
lost it somehow. A video is shown of a Dragon breaking free of some shackles.
Back in Deningrad, Dart and co. plot their next move when they see Rose
arriving with Sister Luanna. She tells Dart that his body has changed
recently. Meru also arrives. They go to a room to talk, where Dart suddenly
feels strange. His dragoon spirit starts to glow. Rose says that it is the
entity that controls the dragoon spirits. A video is shown of the Divine
Dragon passing over Deningrad. When the Sisters find out about it, they get
scared. They learn that the heroes are dragoons and ask them for help. Rose
says that they would need the Dragon Block Staff, which concealed the Dragon's
power. Meru blurts out that she knows about it. She tells them that it is in
the Forest of the Winglies and that Winglies are still alive. They decide to
go there along with the First Sacred Sister, Miranda. Shana disappears and
they find her in a room. She says that she was summoned by a thing. The group
sees an object in the air, glowing. Queen Theresa says that the castle was
initially a fort of the Winglies. The Dragon must be coming back because of
the object and to attack Winglies. Shana suddenly loses her dragoon spirit and
it gets transferred to Sister Miranda who is now a dragoon. Shana cannot go on
and the group leaves her there and head for the Forest of Winglies.
At the forest of the Winglies, Meru reveals to the gang that she is a
Wingly. Once they enter, the Winglies are all wary of the group. The Ancestor
agrees to meet them and decides that to beat the Divine Dragon, both species
had to work together. The group asks for the Dragon Block Staff and the
Ancestor agrees to give it to them. He says that it is in The Forbidden land
and they will have to go get it. They agree and head for the Forbidden Land.
There they break through and arrive at the room where the Dragon Block
Staff is being sealed. Meru tries to pry it out, but suddenly a rock-like
monster attacks them. It is a Grand Jewel. After a grueling battle, the heroes
vanquish it. It uses the Dragon Block Staff, which greatly reduces the power
of the dragoons. They finally manage to get the Dragon Block Staff and start
to head back. Suddenly, they spot the Divine Dragon heading towards Deningrad.
The Ancestor helps them reach Deningrad as quickly as possible. A video is
shown where the Dragon annihilates the city. Also a beam is seen going to the
Moon from the Crystal Palace in Deningrad.
Once the group arrives at Deningrad, they find that it has been
destroyed. They go to the palace and find that the Sisters and Queen Theresa
are safe due to a light coming out from Shana's forehead. Shana cannot explain
the power. Dart decides that they are going to go to the Mountain of Mortal
Dragon to fight the Divine Dragon. Once again, Shana has to stay back.
The group reaches the Mountain of Mortal Dragon and sees powerful beams
coming from the top. They realize that the Divine Dragon is up there and hurry
towards it. They hear swords clashing and realize that someone is fighting the
dragon. They see that it is Lloyd. Lloyd says that the Dragon gave him a hard
time even with the Dragon Buster. But, the Dragon is almost dead. Suddenly he
disappears and the group has to fight the Divine Dragon. Dart uses the Dragon
Block Staff which reduces the Dragon's power as well as the dragoons'. After a
long battle, they kill the Divine Dragon. Lloyd suddenly appears and grabs a
glowing object. It is the dragoon spirit of the Divine Dragon. Dart asks him
if that was his goal. Lloyd says that the Dragon was just an obstacle in his
ideal. He claimed the dragoon spirit as a prize. Lloyd says he wants to
destroy the world and leaves. The group starts chasing him. When they find him
again, Lloyd sprouts wings and attacks them. Dart realizes that Lloyd is a
Wingly. Rose passes out and when she comes to, Dart asks her about himself.
She mumbles something about the Black Monster and the familiar flashback of
Neet being destroyed is shown. They ask Sister Miranda about the Divine Moon
Object in Mille Seseau. She says that it is the Moon Mirror. They realize that
Queen Theresa may be in danger and hurry back.
A scene is shown where Bardel, an evil Wingly attacks Sister Wink and her
knights. He says that he wants to kill all humans and gets ready to kill
Sister Wink when Lloyd appears. He saves Sister Wink and kills Bardel. Sister
Wink recognizes him from the time he saved her before and offers to treat his
wound at the castle. Lloyd agrees. As our heroes make their way back, they are
informed that Queen Theresa has been abducted by Lloyd. They rush to the
castle where they learn that Lloyd helped Sister Wink just to get to the
castle. He is after the Moon Mirror and has abducted Theresa to get it. He
says he wants to create a utopia. Miranda says that the Moon Mirror is at the
Tower of Flanvel and they rush there.
On the way, they encounter and beat a very strong monster, Windigo. They
reach the Tower of Flanvel where they see that Lloyd has gotten all three
Divine Moon Objects. He says that he will reform the world into a utopia that
he and Emperor Diaz desire. He says that the utopia is going to be created by
the last species from the Divine Tree, the 108th species. He says the Moon
Objects will help him do just that. He then attacks the group and a battle
starts. After a long fight, Lloyd gets beaten. Dart gets ready to unleash the
final blow, when out of nowhere, Sister Wink appears and cuts in front, saving
Lloyd. She says that killing Lloyd won't solve a thing. Emperor Diaz appeared
and he took Shana away. He wants Dart to bring the Divine Moon Objects and
Lloyd to him. Lloyd says that Emperor Diaz is finally starting to take charge
and that his work is done. He asks Dart to kill him, but Dart doesn't saying
that it won't bring anyone back. He learns that Emperor Diaz is at Vellweb and
decides to go there.
On the way to Vellweb, Lloyd tells the group about Emperor Diaz. He was
the human emperor that led them during the Dragon Campaign. He felt that the
world was rotting and all the species were in danger. He wanted to regenerate
the world by creating a utopia. This utopia could be created by the 108th
species of life, the Moon Child. The Winglies were the 107th species and were
scared that the Moon Child would be stronger than them. So, they sealed its
powers in three Divine Objects. He doesn't say anything else and says that the
rest could be learned from Emperor Diaz.
When they arrive at Vellweb, they see Shirley. She says that the souls
of four dragoons that died during the Dragon Campaign were trapped there and
asked them to free them after they were done. They eventually find Diaz and
Dart gives him the Moon Objects. Diaz then frees Shana. Albert asks Diaz what
he is going to do. Diaz says that he is going to destroy the world. Lloyd
seems surprised and says that he didn't want the world to be destroyed. He
realizes that Diaz duped him. Diaz says that he is going to release the 108th
species to help him. When Soa created life, he intended it to evolve until the
108th species. Then it was supposed to disintegrate. The 108th species is the
God of Destruction, the Virage Embryo. It is the true Virage. He says that he
doesn't need Lloyd anymore and kills him. He then reveals his true self. He is
actually Dart's father. Rose also recognizes him as Zieg. Zieg explains Soa's
plan for creation. He says that the flesh of the Embryo was taken away from
the Winglies as the Moon that Never Sets. Its soul was captured in a crystal
sphere which prevented it from being born. The humans however destroyed the
sphere. The soul takes a human form and goes to the Moon that Never Sets every
108 years as the Moon Child. The peace that the Moon Child is supposed to
bring is actually destruction. During the dragon campaign, one dragoon found
out about this. This dragoon has been killing the Moon Child every time. It is
the Black Monster and is actually Rose. Zieg tells Rose that the Princess
Louvia she killed wasn't actually the Moon Child. She had a twin sister. Shana
is the real Moon Child. Zieg grabs Shana and Rose tries to kill her. She
fails. Zieg then disappears. The group heads to the Death Frontier and the
City of Winglies, Ulara.
In Ulara, we learn that this is the place where time was stopped for
Rose. The Winglies were led by siblings, Charle and Melbu Frahma. They
concealed the power of the Virage Embryo in the Crystal Sphere. But, Charle
Frahma also created 5 Signet Spheres which would serve as the last barrier in
case the Moon Child reached the Moon that Never Sets. But, Melbu wanted to
rule the world and created the Divine moon Objects to break the Signet
Spheres. Two Spheres were lost; thus only three divine Moon Objects are
required. Charle stopped rose's time in order to make her the Black Monster
and kill the Moon Child every 108 years. The Signet Sphere was created in case
Rose made a mistake like she did with Shana. Dart asks Charle where the other
Signet Spheres were and she says that they are in three ancient Wingly cities.
To get there they had to first go to Rouge, Haschel's hometown.
When they arrive at Rouge, Haschel asks the mayor about the ancient
cities. The mayor says that he doesn't know anything about that but shows them
a strange tower jutting out from the sea. Rose says that it is probably the
Magical City, Aglis. They try to figure out a way to get there. A scene is
shown where a person is watching them, magically inside Aglis. Suddenly there
is a huge noise and they see that the sea has parted and they can see a path
from Rouge to Aglis. They decide to take it.
In Aglis they are greeted by strange little creatures made of magic. They keep
talking about a person named Savan who was watching them and two things called
The Psychedelic Bomb and Moot. They eventually find Savan who is a Wingly that
survived the Dragon Campaign. He was saved by Rose 7,000 years ago. He can see
the world and knows of the danger. Thus he is creating the psychedelic bomb
which is a strong magic that could help defeat Zieg. He is also creating Moot
which will serve as another barrier for the Moon that Never Sets. To complete
the bomb, he needs the courage of the heroes and they undergo tests to
determine it. When they pass, Dart gets the bomb. They then to go to look at
the Signet Sphere which is being guarded by a powerful magic creature called
Last Kraken. Suddenly they hear Zieg saying that he is going to destroy the
world for it is Soa's intention. He somehow controls last Kraken and commands
it to destroy the Signet Sphere. The heroes engage in battle to stop it. After
beating Kraken, there is a huge noise and Savan says that the dragoon powers
reacted with Moot and is going to destroy the Signet. He tells them to go to
the next Ancient City, Law City Zenebatos. He prepares a portal to send them
there and dies. The heroes decide to avenge him. They also see through the
mirror, Zieg destroying the Moon Mirror because he doesn't need it anymore.
The group heads for Zenebatos.
In Zenebatos, they are prevented from entering the room with the Signet
Sphere due to a Wingly Law. They realize that Zieg couldn't get in either.
Somehow they work around the law and enter the room. There they are greeted by
the Law Maker who has been manipulated by Zieg. They have to fight three
powerful enemies, but defeat them. Then they go to the room, but they are too
late. Zieg has already used the Moon Object and the Signet Sphere is
deteriorating fast. Dart wonders how Zieg got in. Suddenly Zieg appears and
says that he is very close to releasing the Virage Embryo. He says that Shana
is going to destroy them all and disappears. Rose says that that is not Zieg.
Dart says that they will find out who that is once they get to the third
Ancient City, the Death City, Mayfil.
Zieg is shown arriving at Mayfil. Dart and co. arrive to find that it
is a place where souls of dead species go. They find the trapped souls of the
Dragons they have vanquished and beat them to release them. They then
encounter the soul of Lavitz. Lavitz seems strange and even attacks the group.
Rose says that something is controlling his soul. They find out that a
resident of hell, Zackwell allowed Lavitz to live there, but took control of
him. They beat Zackwell and free Lavitz. Lavitz shows them the way to the
Signet Sphere and dies in peace. They arrive at the Signet Sphere and see Zieg
using the Moon Object. Dart tries to stop him, but can't. Suddenly, there is a
huge noise and Rose says that the Moon is starting to fall. Dart says that
they still have time as long as Shana doesn't reach it. A video is shown of
the Moon falling on earth and landing on the Divine Tree. A lot of Virages
come out of it. Rose says that they are just the guardians for the Virage
Embryo. They decide to go to the Moon that Never Sets.
In the Moon that Never Sets, they each encounter their past and realize
the truth. Miranda realizes that her mother left her, because she couldn't
bear to watch her father ruin their lives. She always loved Miranda. Haschel
realizes that he pushed his daughter too far and was able to find peace.
Kongol realizes that Emperor Doel was really helping him. He also earns the
respect of his brother by beating him. In return he gets the Golden Dragoon
Spirit and now, Kongol too is a dragoon. Meru fights the Archangel, the god of
Winglies, and tells it that humans are good people. She escapes from the
Archangel's curse. Albert manages to forgive his uncle for killing his father.
He realizes that Emperor Doel was misguided, but had good intentions. Rose
defeats her Dragon to release it from its misery. Finally, they all reach the
core of the Moon.
There they are blocked by a Super Virage guarding the path. They defeat
it to get through. Dart sees Shana and tries to go to her, but Zieg appears.
He steals Dart's dragoon spirit and turns into a dragoon. They fight Zieg and
defeat him. After the battle, Zieg reveals his true self. Rose says that it is
Melbu Frahma, the one time ruler of Winglies. When Zieg defeated Melbu during
the Dragon Campaign, Melbu transferred his soul to Zieg's body and later to
Dart's father. He sends Shana to the Embryo and releases her. Then he goes in
there and Rose realizes that he is merging with the Embryo. They wonder what
to do, when out of nowhere Lloyd appears. He engages in battle with Melbu and
does quite well until an attack from Melbu kills him. Before dying he gives
Dart the Divine Dragon spirit and the Dragon Buster. He tells Dart to kill
Melbu. Dart is now the dragoon of the Divine Dragon. They get ready for the
final battle with Melbu Frahma.
A long battle ensues and eventually the heroes come out on top. Dart
flies over to Shana to check on her. Rose goes to Zieg. Zieg says that it is
the end of their journey and asks Rose to come with him. Rose accepts. Melbu
rises up and says that he is not finished. Zieg and Rose tell the others to
leave and unleash a massive attack on Melbu, but get trapped with him. Dart
and the others escape from a crumbling Moon that Never Sets. When they exit,
they see the Moon exploding and going up in flames. Dart lets out a yell
knowing that Zieg and Rose sacrificed themselves for the future of the world.
In the end some scenes are shown in which peace has returned to the world and
everyone lives happily.

5. Summary of the game.
In this section, I will briefly summarize the game with the main plot and
outcome.
The basic concept is that the life on earth was created by the creator,
Soa. He planted the Divine Tree, which eventually bore 108 fruits. These
fruits were the various life forms. His plan was for the fruits to be
developed one after the other until it reached the 108th fruit which is the
God of Destruction. This was supposed to destroy everything and allow life
to start over. The Winglies, who were the 107th species didn't want a being
more powerful than them and therefore separated its flesh from its soul.
The flesh became the Moon that Never Sets and the soul was trapped in a
crystal sphere. Charle Frahma, one of the two leaders of the Winglies
created a bunch of Signet Spheres that would prevent the soul from reaching
the flesh, but her brother, Melbu created the Divine Moon Objects which
could destroy the Signet Spheres. During the Dragon Campaign, a war for
survival between humans and Winglies, the humans destroyed the crystal
sphere. Since then, every 108 years the Moon that Never Sets glows, and the
soul assumes a human form and tries to reach the flesh. This human form is
the Moon Child. Charle learned about this and granted one of the dragoons,
Rose immortality so she could assume the role of the Black Monster and kill
the Moon Child. Lloyd's goal was to get the Moon Objects and hand them to
Melbu Frahma, pretending to be Zieg, pretending to be Emperor Diaz. Melbu
wants to destroy the world, so he could be the God and Dart and co. are
involved in a mammoth struggle to stop him. Eventually the heroes manage to
defeat Melbu and restore peace to the world.
6. Impression of the game.
This was a really good game with some of the best graphics on any system
ever. The story was a bit generic, but there were a lot of twists and turns
near the end which were very interesting. The characters evoked a lot of
emotion and the fact that a lot of them died shows how tough their battle
was. This game really makes me look forward to a sequel.
