High up in the heavens, the ancient crystal known as Ira maintains the peace of an entire world... until a mysterious figure shatters the crystal, allowing Chaos to return. As malevolent creatures suddenly appear across the land, a young girl is chosen by an ancient god to collect the fragments of Ira and restore order, assisted by the apostles who once served Ira’s creator.(Storyline via IGDB)
