Overview
You play as Dragomir Dougall who is a Major in the army of Neoach. In the
beginning of the game you will fight a couple of battles against the countries
of Mystica, and Libraco since these countries have been found to be full of
heretics, and their knowledge of the occult and chemistry has been seen as a
threat. Through these battles the main character goes through an internal
conflict with his sense of duty and his want to find true order. He begins
to think that his country is not embodying the ideas of order anymore and has
strayed to the side of chaos, and will end up fighting against the country to
which he once served. In the end he will end up very confused as his search
for order has left him to realize that there is no order without some chaos to
achieve this order, so he begins to think about how it might be possible to
just have order. (of course all of this will not happen instantaneously,
but will have many events lead up to each major turning point in the story.
This is not set in stone yet and will probably be changed as I am thinking to
making a sequel to this with a major twist called The Chaos of Order).
Country Overview
Neoach
A technologically advanced society, slightly more advanced than our own.
This country is made up of mostly desert with some grasslands to the north,
mountains to the west, a nice beach to the east, and a snowy wasteland to the
south. This country has by far the largest military force in the land, and
its government is a republic. Most of the communications are looked over
and censored by the government to keep order in the country. Anything,
which is considered dangerous or anti-government, is censored; most other
things are not touched though. They are allied with their neighbors to the
north Ordanily.
Ordanily
Not quite as technically advanced, though they do enjoy a fairly modern
lifestyle. This country is made up of mostly rolling planes, lakes, and rivers.
Many say the beauty of this country is because it is blessed by their god
osmass. The largest church in the land is located here in the capital city,
Cosmal, the High Church of Ordanily. The government here borders on a
theocracy but still had a lot of the traits of a republic. This country does
not have much of a military force as Neoach has protected them for ages and
even has a few bases in the country. Also with this Ordanily can wipe their
hands clean of most battles as it was not their force who did the battling.
Mystica
The people of this country rely on mechanical and natural means to solve their
everyday problems. They also use their knowledge of Ephemeral force (similar
to magic) to solve problems out of the reach of mechanical and natural means.
The country itself is a large island with a lagoon on the east. The beaches
melt away into plains and into a large forest, which creates an inner ring on
the island. Tucked away behind this forest is another region of plains.
This country is run by a group of Elders, who are chose by a specially selected
group when one of the other Elders either dies, or is afflicted by a permanently
debilitating disease. In addition to this there is also a group of elected
officials who handle small problems that arise to leave the bigger ones to the
wisdom of the council of Elders. They are in friendly relations with Libraco,
which is the island nation to the north.
Libraco
This country is in a perpetual state of chaos, though it never seems to get
out of hand. Basically they have no government but are still able to coexist
with each other. The country itself is made up of 5 to 6 islands, with most
them being plains and forest, but the one in the north being nothing but a
snow capped mountain. They don't place any value on tradition, and believe
very strongly in the ability of people to truly have free will and be able
to decide for themselves what they believe. There is also a strong interest
in chemistry and alchemy here, as they are very proficient in making homemade
explosives and various other chemical compounds. This of course is what has
made other countries look at them as terrorists.
Prawn
A large island with two active volcanoes, and being covered in mountains. Prawn
places its faith in its fists and nothing else. These people have a high sense
of pride in their ability to hold their own without the aid of anything but
their own body, they are a very naturalistic society, eating only what they
kill, and taking only herbal remedies. They tend to stay out of politics and
have no foreign relations, since they also place high pride on being self
sufficient, and needing help form others is seen as weakness.
Beginning of the Story
The story starts in the hometown of Dragomir and Abadon, Able, Neoach. It'll
start off with Dragomir playing Jet Combat 6 on his PrayStation 3 (this might
be a minigame later), then he'll stop since it's noon and go get something to
eat like he does everyday. He'll stop by Abadon's house first though to see
if he wants to go get something to eat with him, but he's not hungry. So then
the player will go to the Cafe and talk to the various people there who will
have various rumors about increased tension between Neoach and the countries
of Mystica and Libraco. Then he'll go back to his house and remember it's been
about a month since he has called his mom, so he should probably do that, plus
he promised when he gets some time he would let his brother play his new game.
So the player can either call her, or just go to their house. So far his tour
in the army has been fairly quiet (which is about to change a lot), so he is
enjoying the time he has off. So then he catches up with his mom, and let's
his brother try out the new game, then he meets up with Abadon later and they
hang out at the nightclub for the rest of the night. The next day will be up
to the player what to do. Then the next day the base will call and tell him
they have this new form of training he needs to report for immediately. So
Dragomir will get in his car and drive northwest to the army base which is near
his hometown. After a couple of weeks of training (will take about 30 minutes
to an hour), they will tell you about a stealth mission they want you to take.
This will involve going to a certain area in Mystica where a well known major
leaders of the resistance movement in Mystica has been hiding out. You will
then go at night by boat to the place land and take him out. You face minimal
resistance since this was a well planned operation, then after you capture him
you are ordered to kill all the villagers, you still having a strong sense of
duty will comply (also knowing if you don't they'll do it anyway and you'll be
demoted and sent to the military prison for a while). You of course are shocked
at the proposal, but your commander gives you the speech about how in times of
war there are no civilians.
Then a couple of days after you get back you see a breaking news story of how a
major military installation and a large church are blown up by some "terrorists"
from Mystica using powerful Ephemeral Force, and some from Libraco using
homemade explosives. This leads Neoach to declare war on these two countries,
as the leaders of Neoach assure the people "These acts of war will be swiftly
dealt with". So when you report back to base they inform you of the major
attack coming up, and you train some more and get prepared for the battle.
Then you go with the Neoach Armada for an amphibious assault on Mystica. This
is where you meet Magdalena.
