Story
A brutal war between Mages and Alchemists tore apart the capital city of Alestria, until Astarius Valcrest, a former Mage who forged a blade of both magic and alchemy, fought to unite them. A century later, the world he built still stands. But Princess Victoria Lockewell’s father, the king, is descending into madness and threatening everything Astarius built. Desperate, she casts a forbidden incantation to resurrect him.
Prologue Demo
New to the demo? The prologue drops players into the war that took place a century before the main story, with all skills unlocked and Astarius at maximum level, giving a full taste of the ATB combat system. A self-contained hour of gameplay, free to play, and Endix is live now, so it’s a good moment to try it.
