The Heroic Games are about to begin! Enter the Dagdan Empire—a prosperous land ruled by the gods—and compete in the Heroic Games for the chance to be granted one wish. Powerful fighters from across the land have gathered to participate, including four heroes whose fortunes are tied to the fate of the world. Play as Cai, a young boy determined to win the games to save his imprisoned father; Dietrich, a swordsman ever on the hunt for a stronger foe; Theodora, a queen seeking to fulfill the long-held dream of her homeland; and Leda, a musician with her sights set on revenge. The stories of these four heroes are key to this time-traveling saga of strength and steel. Guide your heroes to victory as each weaves their own tale. Prepare for each match of the Heroic Games by exploring Dagda and its capital city of Dagsion. Learn techniques and hone skills at the training grounds, recruit allies and build bonds of friendship, and explore beyond Dagsion’s walls to gain experience and strengthen your forces in a variety of ways. How you spend your free time is up to you, but the tactical matches of the Games themselves will put your preparations to the test. Use everything you have at your disposal, including your heroes’ special abilities, to turn the tide of battle!
