Author's Note: This will be one of my weekly updates. Now that summer is inching closer, I want to update at least once a week, if not twice. I hope you enjoy and follow me through my gameplay!
To the south of Etria lays a beautiful crystal sea, glittering with the sails of ships and the gleam of the bounty of the blue waters. Within the ocean's ever-shifting bosom lies the oceanic metropolis of Armoroad, the trading hub of the ocean.
Rumor has it that a century past, the great city of Armoroad was alive with untold technology, greater than anyone could ever imagine. But one day, a great calamity struck the city's hub, and the center sunk to the depths of the black ocean, taking the vast wealth of technology to the center of the earth. Mankind lost its knowledge to mansea, and with it, they were forced to regress back to a much simpler time.
But the ocean is forgiving.
With it, it bore an entrance to a mystical land, a land of jewel-like blossoms and emerald grasses. The citizens of Armoroad flocked to its depths, entranced by the beauty of the too glorious landscape. The water there was sweet like honey, and the fruits the mysterious place bore were juicy with rich tastes never before experienced.
From the sea came the Yggdrasil Labyrinth.
But from the Yggdrasil Labyrinth came destruction.
Soon, monsters of mythologies long thought to be lost ravaged the labyrinth, taking the lives of citizens. The Senatus, the governing leaders of the oceanic haven, sent many a soldier and willing persons into the depths, but very few were able to make it past a place donned the name of the Waterfall Wood. The Senatus simply could not sit by idle as the lives of their countrymen were snuffed out like candles. And so, the Senatus sent out a decree across the lands: Explores, one and all, come to the labyrinth and test your fate! Find the Lost City, and win your fortune and glory!
Author's note: I just recently invested in this game. Similar to my EO I OC fanfic, this will follow my adventure through the game. This time, however, I have an all female team Absinthe with the leader being Zero Celba, a gladiator that longs to set sail on the sea and make a name for herself. Armed with the lovely boat Aldana, Zero will travel all the labyrinth and sea until she and her new crew have made a name worthy of the glory of the treasures of the Lost City. I'm very excited about this, and I hope that I can continue to this. Eventually, I want to branch out and do other games with similar styles.
