And so, a peace crept into this world as a long winter changes subtly 

to spring. Why not? With the Dark Legion diminished, Humanity rose 

in power.  
No one believed the disaster of 50 years ago could ever happen 

again. There was no sign of war, and East and West Bersia have 

become allies.  
But, to some, it seems like a sunny sky slowly filling with clouds, 

peaceful and bright. Maybe you wonder whether the clouds might 

hold a passing shower or even a rainstorm? 
You also might feel, however, that the answer to a question you dare 

not ask draws near. Will the Dark Legion rise again? History has a 

tendency of repeating itself…  

The Dark Legion has massacred a group of villagers living near a 

former battleground, which since has become sacred land. The short-

lived peace in the world is over, and the Humans and the Dark Legion 

are now at war. 
Choose which race you would like to play, and select one of several 

character types within each race. From here on out, it’s all about 

war. You start out with one infantry unit, but you can acquire more 

forces or develop them into more specialized and powerful units. Take 

center stage in epic battles—hear the cries of soldiers, and see the 

chaos of the fight. Command elite cavalry and infantry units of up to 

1,000 soldiers. 
After the battle, use the world map to designate where your troops 

go next. While moving across the continent, you can visit castles, gain 

endorsements from feudal lords, hire mercenaries, replenish your 

troops, or change equipment. 
The time has come to fight. Which side will you choose? 

Prologue

Legend holds that when war threatens Bersia with destruction, seven 

knights will appear to bring salvation. 
The legend came true when the mysterious Khiliani, leader of the Dark 

Legion, took the eastern Hexter of Bersia in his campaign to destroy 

the world. Seven heroes rose up against Khiliani to rally for humanity 

and defend Bersia.  
The battle turned when a fallen hero, Rick Miner, was resurrected 

through the immortal power of the Ancient Heart. Together with the 

rest of Xok’s Knights, he defeated Khiliani at the Altar of Destruction. 
This was the First War of Heroes, now known as “Xok’s Knights.”

Rumors linger long after the end of the Second War of Heroes. What 

transpired between Neeble and the Ancient Heart? Did all of the 

war’s participants truly vanish?
Mists. Legends. Echoes of good and evil. No clear record of this 

war remains. Nevertheless, the site of its final battle—the Altar of 

Destruction—now is considered holy ground. 

Fifty years have passed since the Second War of Heroes. The 

legendary artifact that caused the Great War, the Ancient Heart, is a 

faint memory. The Altar of Destruction lies in ruins, and none who 

lived through the final battle remain.  
Children no longer listen to the battle songs of hope and death from 

an old man who says he was there. The adventures of the Ancient 

Heart and Neeble, the tales of Xok’s Knights—doesn’t anyone want 

to hear their stories? 
Were they just stories?
