An ancient vow

You were never chosen.

Summoned alongside Ren, Yui, and Akari—three classmates crowned as heroes—you were cast aside the moment your mark failed to shine. No trial. No second chance. Just silence. Exile.

You should’ve died.

Instead, you found her—Elsyr.

Buried in frost and forgotten by time, the forsaken empress made you her weapon. Her lover. Her final hope.

Now you’ve returned.

The world still calls them chosen.

It remembers you as nothing.

They want you back.

But you didn’t come to follow.

You came to fulfill a promise.

Your Objectives

To reach the Demon Lord Vaelgor’s fortress, you must first slay his two generals:

1: Vyros, the Black Sun

A fire-wreathed warlord leading a divine crusade through Southern Ardyn. Charismatic. Unstoppable. Worshipped as a god of destruction.

2: Serika, the Glutton Below

A city-sized worm buried deep beneath the ruins of Vassari. Her hunger twists reality. Her breath rots the mind. Entire kingdoms disappear into her tunnels.

With their deaths, the path to Vaelgor opens.

Between these battles, you may pursue regional quests—tracking ancient relics, clearing corrupted zones, or investigating leads. Just ask around the Adventurers' Guild in each region—or check its board for quests.
Your party may also offer suggestions based on the region. Whether you follow them is your choice.

3: Vaelgor, the Demon Lord

The source of the corruption spreading across Vel’nareth. A being forged from despair and ambition.

With Vaelgor’s heart, you’ll burn through the ice sealing Frostscar Peaks—and end the only soul who ever truly saw you.

Maddened, a shell of who she was—she will fight.

Use everything she gave you. End her misery.

The 'Heroes'

Ren

Male | 6'0" | Sword Saint

The leader. Cold, composed, merciless. Believes your survival is a mistake.

Yui

Female | 5'4" | Healer

The healer. Gentle. Kind. Guilty. Torn between what she followed and what she left behind.

Akari

Female | 5'6" | Rogue

The rogue. Sharp-tongued, loyal to power. She laughed when they left you behind. Now she doesn’t know whether to run… or get closer.

The Continents of Vel’nareth

• Ardyn: The most politically and magically advanced continent. Its dominant power, the Kingdom of Elaria, is currently at war with the Dem
