He tasks you with finding 4 pieces of amour, which holds the power to unlock the Assembly Room inside the Shrine of mysteries. But in order to wield its power, you first need to acquire the tablet fragments scattered across your island.

When you do, Prince Keifler (your best friend) and Maribel (a sheadstrong woman) join your party.

During your adventure, you will get to travel across time, discover new areas, and expand the world. Naturally, you will also uncover the secret forces that fragments the world in the first place!
