“We won’t let them walk the same path. Not as long as we exist...” Kelvin’s encounter with the Apostles in Gaun is finally over, and it ended with him successfully winning over Ange.

And how will Kelvin and Gerard fare without them?

“We’re always looking for fights with more powerful foes.

Along with her descent to the mortal plane, she bestows the Blessing of the Goddess of Reincarnation upon Kelvin, which enables him to summon a Hero of his own! As Kelvin’s party continues growing in size and in strength, the militaristic nation of Trycen stirs in the shadows.
