BACKSTORY

The world exists with 6 elements (fire, wind, water, earth, plant, and spirit) each of which corresponding to a specic race. These races were given the gift to influence the elements based on their actions and emotions. However like many other civilizations and the very elements they represented, these races could not live in harmony. Wars erupted over petty differences, and because of their influence on the elements, the world began to die. The godess refused to intervine, claiming that the races were given free will for a reason. This angered many, and in time, a 7th race appeared. Some believe the race was created artificially, others believe the goddess created them, however one truth was known, they were the world's saviors. They were the Druida, winged women (like the valkyrie) who's blood acted as a magical control. The races had no concious control over the elements, however, these women did. They had one purpose in life, to purify the evils and to give the world a second chance. However their idea of "balance" meant corrupting the elements to work in allignment. Fire burning under water, earth possessing no gravity, plants and life ceasing to end, and living in eternal torture, these things were how the Druida saw the world should work. It was quite literally hell, and there was little the races could do about it

It was the brink of their destruction, that the races finally learned to live in harmony and join together to take down these beasts. Through their war they learned the race's blood was infact the way they could control the elements. However, these druida were virtually immortal. They possessed miraculous healing properties, and not only that, those whom discovered they could use the druida's blood as a catalyst for magic, soon realize the Druida were immune to the elements they corrupted. If it were not for the most spiritual of the races, the Demons, they would have fallen to these Druida. The Demons found they could capture the druida in a device that would preserve their blood and souls, and forever immobolize them. They erected six of these devices, one for each element, at six locations throught the world. Through these devices magic became possible for the different races, and the world they had begun to destroy through their elemental influence, and wars, had begun to rise once again. These druida had saved their world, but at what cost? The goddess that had created them seemed to have disapeared, and their wars begun again, this time with the destructive addition of magic.



GAMEPLAY

The game itself ties into both the devices, and the goddess. It is believed that the goddess had not left, but had actually been confined by the very elements the druida had corrupted. This meant that the world had an expiration date, and would ultimatly perish even with the devices keeping it alive. This is, however, a story, and whether or not it is true is up to speculation. (No I won't give you the answer.) The only way the goddess can be saved is to release the druida blood from the devices. This would destroy magic, and release the druida of any seals kept upon them, keeping them from rising again. Both of which are very taboo in the world, and is something that would be considered terrorism at best.

And that is the point of the game, to release the blood.

You join Kelta, a young woman whom had supposedly been infused with the blood (its a procedure done only by the richest people. It enhances the magical ability.) Domino, a demon who had been released from an ancient seal, and is now bound to Kelta by a curse, which causes them to share magical damage. Brought together by Tori, an eldery demon wizardess whom lives by the old story, and believe the world can only live fairly with the blood released. To do this they must track down the "guardian's" of the devices, a single member of each of the races who was trained to release the blood, using, of coure, the blood of a Druida. That Druida is Kelta.

Each of the Guardians has their own backstory, and place in the plot of the first game, along with unlocking more and more story about the 6 races. Eventually, once the blood has been completely released, a destruction can begin, that would completely destroy all of the druida blood. This would destroy magic, and hopefully allow the goddess to return. However, if this is not possible, Domino's true purpose would begin. As the story progresses, it is revealed that if their plan fails, if the stories are not true, a Demon is the only thing that can take down the Druida. Only with the Druida completely gone, can the Goddess return, and the world fail to perish. As they meet each guardian, Domino can be trained further in his own abilities, and the abilities necessary to defeat the Druida. This includes Kelta, which is precicely the reason he should never allow himself to get too close to her.
