...This place is pretty depressing.

It seems the fighting made its way here as well.

How tragic...

We must do all we can to make sure this doesn't happen again.

My, Hans, what a confident look you have on your face!

Right, let's take out that naughty Cardes!

Huh? Who's Cardes, you ask?

Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't tell you about him, did I!?

Ahem, well then, it's time for Tilith's storytelling time!

This, the Palmyna Archipelago, is ruled by "Cardes the Malevolent," one of the Four Fallen Gods.

Our current objective, Hans, is to defeat him!

And you'll have to be on your guard as he's much stronger than Maxwell!

But there's no need to worry!

In fact, the larger part of Cardes's power is currently sealed away.

It's said it was sealed away during the great war deep within Palmyna in a place known as the "Spirit World"...

There must have been some pretty impressive humans here other than you, Hans.

Wait, hold on a second...

This means that Cardes ruled over this land even after his powers were sealed away, doesn't it?

Perhaps he's even more powerful than I had imagined...

......

Anyway, we have to take him down regardless!

It won't be any problem for you though, Hans!

I should be going. I have to do some more research on Cardes!

Good luck!!
