Story (incomplete)
Game starts with a cut scene of the 2 characters on a hunt. They are having a discussion about what happened to their parents. After all the years, they are still unsure who was responsible. Their guardians, an old man and old woman in the village, feel it is the right time to explain what happened. Control is handed to the player to complete the hunt. Upon completion of the hunt, the characters return to the village. When they return, their guardians call them in. The old man sits down and explains what happened to their parents. After the story is finished, the boy is very angry and runs out. The girl runs after him. In his fit of anger, he decides that he will go after the main boss.
Before they leave the old man sits them down and tells them the story of some powerful crystals which can be found in caves throughout their journey. He says "BEWARE!! To obtain these crystals is not easy. You must solve a puzzle to fight the guardian of the crystal. Only by defeating this guardian, will you obtain the crystal."
