The game focuses on the characters Ende and Ceres who live in the Elysium kingdom on the continent known as Graecia. Ceres is chosen to sing at the kingdom's harvest festival, but monsters begin to attack when she goes to perform. Ende later finds her unconscious as the army comes to take her because she witnessed the beast. A merchant named Graiai helps the two escape into a tower. Later, they find out that Ceres has been cursed, and in order to lift it, Ende must use the Orichalcum Chain to obtain the flesh of the beasts that live in the tower.

[color=purple]Scans:
[color=purple]There has also been a trailer, recently (you can view it at the site's link below) and it shows a decent amount of gameplay, luckily. The music seems to be inspired by the classical genre, as one will notice right away from the site and the trailer.
Personally, I think it's a bit reminiscent of Valkyrie Profile, but I don't know. One way or another, the game seems to be very interesting to me, and I definitely plan on keeping my eye on it.
