2. INTRODUCTION
======================================================================
This game is about war in a world where mythology and technology are
one. A young man must find his destiny to lead the rebellion against
the Junaris Kingdom and to save the people of his world from an
eternity of oppression. He and his friends are unwillingly drawn into a
holy war being waged by a bloodthirsty general and his army of
darkness.
This is my first faq. If you have comment, correction, suggestion send
me e-mail at . I have got all the missions (56
missions) and all the ATACs (32 ATACs). I have got all the endings :
good Kingdom ending, Ruin ending, Sadira and Cecilia Empire endings,
bad Kingdom ending.

======================================================================
3. GENERAL HINT
======================================================================
1. Try to kill enemies as much as possible. Because you can get EXP
and MONEY from killing enemies. You will need a lot of money to buy
weapons, stones, and amulets.
2. I suggest you increase BAS, POW, and DEX when level up. To get a
new stronger attack, you must have high BAS, POW, and DEX.
3. Always attack enemies from behind if you can. Because the attack
will do more damage, and enemy can not counter, attack, defend your
attack.
4. Make your character and your allies attack one enemy at a time.
5. Try to make FP enemy reach 100. If this happens, make all your
characters attack him because the enemy will be dizzy and can not
do anything. Your attack will hit with a 100% success rate.
6. Be careful when your FP almost reach 100. Try to run away from
enemies and don't do anything that will make your FP reach 100.
7. Always buy weapons first then amulets or stones.
8. Try to make your friends morale high. If you interview them, you
can see the morale between you and your friends. The rate of
morale from the highest to the lowest are red -> pink -> orange ->
yellow -> green -> light blue -> dark blue. Try to make your
friends staying alive in battle, because if not the rate of morale
of your friends that die will be decrease. If before the colour is
red, it will turn to pink. If before the colour is pink, it will
turn to orange. And so on.

4. WALKTHROUGH
======================================================================
Explanation of "CHOICES TO MAKE" :
You will have to choose one of the answers. Sometime if you choose
the first answer, your mission will be different from the mission
if you choose the second answer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
4.1 CHAPTER 1 : DESTINY'S CHILD
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ENEMIES : 4 Imperial soldiers
MISSION OBJECTIVE : annihilate the enemy
HOW TO WIN THE BATTLE :
Just fight until they all die.
CHOICES TO MAKE :
1. Who are you ?
2. Do you fight for the Empire ?
No matter what do you choose, the result will be the same. The
difference only in what they say.

4.3 CHAPTER 3 : TRAGIC FAREWELL
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ENEMIES : 4 Imperials + Faulkner
4 Bodyguards + Duyere
MISSION OBJECTIVE : annihilate the enemy
HOW TO WIN THE BATTLE :
Attack the enemy in front of you. Let Kamorge alone attack the enemy
behind you. I suggest you attack Duyere first because he's very
strong. If Faulkner runs, he will run too. If you kill him, you will
get a lot of money. After Duyere killed, kill his bodyguards then
kill the Imperials.
CHOICES TO MAKE :
1. We must attend to Kamorge! -> Kingdom/Ruin branch
2. I shall find that murderer! -> Empire branch
These choices only showed if Bastion's level 8 or higher. If your
Bastion's level lower, you automatically get Kingdom/Ruin branch.

in the center. Let the others attack them. After a while, Zakov
come. After you killed 2 Imperials in the bridge, attack Zakov and
4 Imperials. If you can, try to kill Faulkner and Duyere, you will
get a lot of EXP and MONEY. If you want a quick win, just get
someone in the front gate of the castle.
CHOICES TO MAKE :
1. I understand
2. I don't care

ENEMIES : Radcot + 9 Muspels
MISSION OBJECTIVE : save Bastion
HOW TO WIN THE BATTLE :
If you win this battle, you will go to Chapter 7.B. But If you lose,
you will go to Chapter 7.A. If you want to win this battle, I
suggest you only increase Bastion's AGL from the beginning (in this
battle, my AGL is 30). Almost all enemy's attack can't hit you and
you can use your turn twice because your speed is high. Just attack
Radcot, ignore the Muspels. If Radcot's HP is low, he will run away
with all the Muspels
CHOICES TO MAKE :
1. Stop worrying, Galvas! We'll be fine!
2. If Radcot attacks, he's a fool
No matter what do you choose, the result will be the same. The
difference only in what they say.
