Meet a variety of interesting characters, like Westley, who helps lead Providence Village alongside his adventurous younger sister, Vivi! Many of the people who were caught outside of their own villages during the eruption ended up seeking refuge in Providence Village, so it's become something of a multicultural hub since then.

The land players will explore is known as Anthos, and is home to the Harvest Sprites, spirits that protect people and nature, as well as the goddess of nature known as the Harvest Goddess. However, about 20 years ago, an unprecedented eruption in Anthos's volcanic region forced the Harvest Goddess and her Harvest Sprites to use all of their powers to protect the people. The people were saved, but the eruption left the villages cut off from each other...

Believing that the separated villages and people would one day be reconnected, the Harvest Goddess sent a bottle into the ocean with a letter and a magic key, then fell into a deep sleep...
