The game Tales of Destiny 2 was released in 2002 on PlayStation 2. Unfortunately, it spread only in the Asian market, was not translated into English and is extremely unpopular abroad. As for me, she is undeservedly forgotten, and in order to correct this situation, I post a retelling of the plot as an addition to my blog about this game. Given the specificity of the game, perhaps this is the only place where you can read about the plot in Russian. I do not set myself the goal of revealing all the vicissitudes of the plot, only to familiarize those who want to know about this game a little more. It is also more likely an exception than the rule, and I do not plan to do similar yet.
To understand some things, I will give a brief retelling of Tales of Destiny.
Once upon a time there was a war of ancient civilizations, which ended with a defeat of one of them. In this war, the so -called lenses, crystals that fell on the planet with a huge meteorite and having a large energy potential were actively used. During the events of Tales of Destiny, four heroes (in fact there were more of them, but according to the canon it is considered like this) with the help of reasonable swords in search of the abductors of the atamni, a healthy lens, revealed the plan of the overlord by the ancient civilization of Kronos to revive his country and capture the world. The heroes defeated him, like the people with whom he manipulated, and the archery of the atamnia destroyed.
So, our adventure begins 18 years later with a guy named Kyle. He and his friends stumbled in the forest on two monsters, they surrounded them and already wanted to do bad things with them, as Loni, who had just returned from the trip, came to the rescue. They dealt with monsters and went to the village to their mother Ruti. It turns out that Kyle is the son of the legendary heroes of the wall and Ruti, who defeated evil from the first part. His mother settled in a shelter, where she spent her childhood before her adventures, and began to take care of the children, and her father went on a trip and did not return anymore. Loni noticed that the shelter is not in the best condition, and Ruti from the skin climbs to make it all, and he knocks the Kyle to the adventure. It turns out that in the nearest ruins they found a large lens and, according to approximate cape, it costs it is insanely expensive, this money could be useful to a shelter and routi.
Loni recognized all this information when he was a knight of the temple and came here supposedly to accompany an important person to this lens. Heroes go to ruins and rave with templars try to get to the treasured lens. They arrive first, but the lens suddenly scatters and a strange girl comes out of her. He claims that he is looking for a hero, and when Kyle tells her that he is all a hero, and even the son of the hero, she arrogantly besieges him, they say she is looking for a real hero, and not the same as he, after which he leaves. Kyle rushes behind her, but is faced with the templars who, having taken the guys for thieves, throw them to prison. In prison, Kyle finally decides that this is an occasion to start his own adventure and become the same as his father, and Loni breaks all ties with the temple, disappointing in him and his methods. A strange person comes to the aid of the heroes to a bone mask, he breaks the doors and frees our prisoners, while not particularly spreading about his motives. He helps to get out of prison and to the question of his name offers to give him a name on his own. Kyle and Loni call him Yudas and say goodbye to him. Having went home, they visit the former capital of a local country along the way, from which there were only ruins during the apocalypse after the victory over the head of the last part, and people who decide what to do with this place.
Real: All people carry happiness in themselves. In their heart, which can find happiness even in pain. In their heart, which believes in a happy future. In their heart, which is eager to find happiness alone. Even the power of God cannot give this.
Then the heroes rested, stocked up with provisions and went on, they still get to the house, where Rutie in the wrongness of anger pronounces them everything that they think about them, but as the former hero understands their feelings. In the morning, she cools and blesses Loni and Kyle for the adventures that they decided to start with the search for that strange girl. Walking on her heels and even catching her up in the gorge, they help to return her pendant, but get the same cold technique from her. The girl leaves again, and Kyle decides to prove to her that he is the same hero and is generally sure that his adventures are connected with her, and therefore again the chase. When visiting the new capital, which was just recently rebuilt, they witnesses the procession of the famous church figure Elrein with accompaniment. The people gather to look at this action, and Elrein uses spells that cure random people from the crowd.
During this, there is a conflict with Kyle, who notices that she has the same pendant like a mysterious girl on her neck, but the second time to throw the heroes in prison is somehow strange, so all the misunderstandings are blocked. After these events, it turns out that our goal went to the Church of Atamoni (Atamni is a local goddess), but the guard does not miss there so simply, therefore, finding a bypass through the ruins, they still fall into the temple. The girl is asking for help from one of the heroines of the past Filia, but a strange man suddenly attacks, he cuts out a nagia and laughs, they say how easy it is to defeat the hero, but in time the Kyle and Loni arrived, and a little later, their old friend from prison, pacify the villain and he has to retire for farewell to his name – Barbatos.
Filia comes to her Admiral Shark Casino review senses and advises the girl to join Kyle, at the same time we will recognize her name – Real, a little later, Kyle recruits also, convincing that since he was following them, then it’s not easier to do it in their own company. And now there are already 4 heroes in the party, you can fully turn the horns to the enemies. They decide to help Real and go to the last hero of the past, whom everyone calls the hero hero and sit on the ship. There, Real and Kyle get to know each other closer, they spend time well and Kyle talks about the fact that he wants to become a hero, like his father, but Real does not have time to explain to him why she needs a hero, how a squid of a squid is attacking the ship. Heroes put on his tentacles, but nevertheless the battle was patted the ship, and he would sank if Rel had not taken advantage of a kind of spell that can force the ship to lamentate. She lost a lot of effort and at the same time consciousness, but the ship has reached the coast intact and preservation. The heroes agreed with the captain that they would land at the village of Liney and take care of the girl, and the ship will float to the repair in Neuzstadt, where they will all meet together and meet. In a village, they settled in the house of Aunt Kyle, the younger sister, a little learned about what walls were and, as soon as Real had recovered, went to Neuzstadt through the cave system. Arriving in the city, the heroes learned that the ship was not yet ready, but for now there was time to fulfill the order of the merchant, who sent them for a certain treasure to the Cave of Oberon. In the cave itself, they discovered cars since the time of Oberon Corporation and a message from Ilein. Ilein is the right hand of Hugo, the owner of the corporation, one of the villains of the first part. She wrote on a stone that minerals in this cave is a treasure that can strengthen the action of lenses and this can make the residents of the city as rich and happy in the future.
Yudas sadly makes a speech as if he knows Ilein and our cave retirers return to the city, grabbing some kind of crystal. Having silent about the real treasure so that the merchant does not acquire on the will of Ilein, the heroes are injected to him this crystal and return to the already repaired ship. This time, the monsters apparently were dewed to attack the ship, so soon our company enters the snowy city of Snowfrire and is already walking from there in Hidelberg, the capital of the local kingdom, whose king was once one of the heroes of the last part. Before accepting guests, King Woodroe (aka Garr) has a conversation with Elrein. She forgive him to give her the lenses that the king keeps in his treasury, but he refuses and Elrein leaves. Having met Kyle, Woodrow communicates with him and compares with the wall, predicting him the future of the hero, but Yudas cools his ardor, indicating that everyone is looking at him through the prism of his father and no one wants to see a separate person in him. Later, Kyle and Real were talking in the park about what it was like to be the son of his father and how stupid Kyle was when he called himself a hero, but did not commit anything heroic. Suddenly, the dragonis (half-podpolomashin) and the army of the monstrot attacks on the castle. Kyle with friends breaks through to the throne room and notices his old acquaintance Barbatos, he wounds the king, but, noticing the heroes, decides to escape. Immediately after Elrein appears, it turns out she stood behind the attack. Heroes are trying to attack her, but she, taking advantage of the strange force, uses the amulet of Real against them and they disappear in a flash of light.
Kyle and Real were in a clearing at the other end of the world, and besides, according to the girl, even in the future for 10 years in advance. Having reached the new capital, where Elrein was first met, Kyle is surprised to understand that some kind of future is not very: a new goddess Fortune appeared, people in the city are called by numbers, and they use divine power to ease people suffering. Kyle does not like this alignment and it turns out that he is not the only one, the girl that they met in the temple of the same opinion, and even reports that their friends live in her village. Naturally, Kyle and Real Madrid are relocated from this strange place and on the ship they leave with their new acquaintance nanali (namely, that that is what her name is) to her homeland. On the way, Kyle learns that Real Madrid is from this time period of time, but she does not want to disclose details and hides something, of course. Finally they arrive in the village of Cheryr and reunite with their friends. Having gathered together, the heroes think about how to get to them at one time and Real Madrid suggests that this can be done in the nearest temple. Nanali wants to go with them, to which Kyle agrees, and now there are already five in the team. Our company reaches the temple and secretly make their way to the altar. Suddenly, Real Cames Fortune and they will have a cute conversation, our partner turns out to be an approximate fortune, like Elrein, and both must fulfill the same assignment of the goddess, though they chose different ways. What kind of assignment is not told to us, but at the end of the conversation they are sent back at the present time and even to the castle from which the heroes have been pulled. The king is wounded, but alive, but the lenses were all kidnapped and flew away on the dragon.
Real feels guilty in this and night, while everyone is sleeping, runs out of the castle. Herring, having grabbed her, decide to find Real Madrid and suggest that she went to Elrein and, in order to get to her, you need something quick and flying. Yudas proposed to find a hidden aircraft in one of the abandoned army bases, which has remained since the ancient warfare and which they wanted to use in the corporation of Oberon. Having safely found this apparatus, the heroes fly into the temple of Strailis to Elrein, where she had already caught Real Madrid and explains to her that she would not tolerate her plans to intervene in her plans. Elrein wants to erase Real Madrid, but Kyle and friends get on time, win her and save the girl. The priestess is teleported, and Real Madrid with tears in her eyes asks why Kyle decided to save her, because she betrayed their trust and did not say who she is. To which Kyle replies that in their first meeting he said that he would be her hero, and the heroes tend to save those who are in trouble. They hug and the amulet of Real is glowing red, which means that she found the one she was looking for.
But this is not all, there was a dragonis, on the board of which stolen lenses are stored, and therefore the pursuit of it begins, it finally turns out to be jammed and climb inside. There, the heroes meet another minion of Elrein, who instead of himself throws Montstroboss. Heroes deal with him and destroy the dragonis, but Hepyenda does not happen, a strange black Figovin flies behind them and absorbs the heroes.
Elrein: People are weak and ephemeral, they are not able to get rid of suffering without divine intervention.
They wake up in an unknown cave and try to understand what happened to them. In the meantime, daitcroft with weapons of mass destruction Belcrant appears in the sky. Loni is at a loss, because this flying city was destroyed by the wall, it is clearly necessary to figure it out, and our company goes on the road. On the way, they visit three strange cities closed by domes, people in them live with a lens in the forehead and are surprised that there are no travelers from those. In the last city it is learned that the story was changed. In the war of the ancients, people from Dahroft won, they destroyed most of the lands and made life unusable on it, but then Elrein went down and made the lenses to the survivors, who adapted them to the environment. A dispute about whether it makes sense to break the created prosperous society, where everyone is happy, ends with the argument of Yudas. He will not tolerate the fact that all those people who have gone and will not become due to distortion of time will lose the opportunity to create their story. Having gathered forces, Kyle and his comrades go to visit Elrein into her temple, where they resign the gatekeeper and are going to figure out the serious one with his mistress. During the conversation, it turns out that the goal of Elrein is to saturate the goddess Fortune to the world, and for this we need those who will sincerely believe in it, and since those who do not want this are constantly located, she acted radically. Her interference in the ancient war led to such consequences: most people on earth are exterminated, and the remaining believe in the goddess, and the inhabitants of Daicroft are strewn and are in dreams. There she sends our avengers.
Real Madrid does not agree with the methods of Elrein and helps Kyle and the rest to get out, in the same place they will find out that the walls were actually killed by Barbatos, and Yudos was once called Lyon. During the first game, he betrayed the wall and spoke on the side of the enemies, was defeated and had to die, but Elrein saved him.
As soon as the heroes got out of the trap, they went during the ancient War with the help of Real Forces to interfere with Elrein’s plans. There on a military base they met Harold, the greatest inventor and, unexpectedly, a girl. She immediately showed off that they from the future joined the team, and also introduced the command of the forces of ground residents. If very briefly, then the war of the ancients was between those who rebuilt the city soaring in the sky and swollen from conceit, and those who remained on earth. The former set the conditions for earthlings and threatened with super -weapon with Belcrant, and the latter finally decided to fight back. Having made a couple of tasks for command and to deliver the cargo and the salvation of scientists, our brave team still stumbled upon Barbatos, who captured the beloved of one of the commanders. It turns out that Barbatos was the commander of the forces of Dahroft and was defeated by Dimlis, but with the help of Elrein’s forces he was revived and used to implement her plans.
Real: Why did you come for me?Kyle: I said when we first met. I am your hero whom you are looking for, and the hero will always save the girl from trouble, no matter what happens.
While the commander Dimlis decided that more importantly, duty or personal life, Kyle explained to him that real heroes did not abandon and went to save the girl. As a result, the heroes and on time Dimlis rescued the girl from the paws of the villain and while the couple has mercy, Real as he asks Kyle, he would abandon everything in order to save her and his answer completely satisfies her. Having finished with romance, everyone returned home, and preparations began for the decisive assault on the flying citadel, after which the process itself began. On Daiprooft, the commanders, armed with the arcamaries (rational swords), went to look for their chief man, and our company – their own, and soon they found him. After Harold’s trolling that Barbatos is a dumb and template villain, a battle begins, as a result of which the enemy runs away again. At the same time, a pack of heroes with the packs defeats his chief man, but his brother Harold dies. With this sad news, the winners are returning back, the time has come to part, but the lens is needed to move in time, then Harold comes to the rescue, it offers the power of the arcas for recharge, the prospect of competing with the goddess herself captivates and she decides to travel in time with all. The next stop is 18 years to date, the place is Dahroft. There, the heroes find a wall with their friends, fighting Barbatos, together, they defeat him and drive him away. After a short conversation, they say goodbye to each other and go to the goddess’s oku, where Barbatos may be according to their assumptions. Having reached him, it turned out that the walls and the company had already visited here, drove the Bullets into the lens to destroy it, and they had already left, but their strength is not enough, so Yudas, Lyon, the last bearer of the Razhurdian Shaltir should make his choice. Brabatos appears here and the battle is tied, he loses, but refuses to admit it, with the words “I will not lose to anyone,” he kills himself. After disassembling with Barbatos, Yudas says goodbye to his chalkan Shaltir and sticks it to the eye.
Heroes again move in time at the present and find themselves at the castle of Woodra, they corrected the past and everything has returned to normal. But their joy was not long, some distortions of time began, Harold said that someone was trying to destroy the future and their goal from them ten years further. Well, well, young travelers in time set off again, they get to the hangar with an airplane that arrived on the autopilot back, and with the help of his lenses go to the future. On the spot, they learned from the minister of the temple, where Elrein is now and went to visit her. She met them and explained that she could not be destroyed, she will be able to degenerate as many times as she wants, this is the gift of her goddess. Moreover, Elrein wants to bring down a meteorite, like the one that fell a thousand years ago, which will give as much energy as necessary for Fortune to appear in its full strength. This can kill all of humanity, but the power of the goddess will be able to create new people. Then the heroes decided to kill the goddess, but it turned out that Elrein and Real Madrid were not just her subordinates, but the reincarnation of Fortune. Her death will lead to the death of Real, and Kyle cannot come to terms with this, he leaves and in spiritual throwing asks for help with the advice of the heroes: Woodli, Filia and his mother. Finally deciding, Kyle and his friends go on a comet of an egg of the goddess, they find Elrein there and a dispute is tied to the fate of mankind. Elrein is sure that they are weak and ephemeral creatures who need the custody of God who will give them real happiness and relieve them of suffering. While Kyle proves that people are strong, that happiness cannot exist without suffering, that only fighting a person receives pleasure. All this is poured into battle, as a result of which the heroes deal with Elrein. After her death, Fortune appears, she does not understand why people do not want to accept her blessing, she was born in order to carry him and does not retreat. As a result of the dialogue, both parties do not come to an agreement, Kyle believes that people do not need the custody of God, while Fortune reproaches him of denying those who, with their desires and prayers, created it. The dispute comes to a dead end and a heavy fight with the goddess begins, Kyle with friends wins her. To finish the matter, Kyle needs to destroy a huge lens in the center of the egg, he does not want to do this, because then it will disappear, but with its support he decides to this step. In parting, they promise to each other that someday, somewhere they will still meet. In the end, friends say goodbye to each other, realizing that everything will fall into place, they will lose all their memories and will live the previous life. Each of them thanks the rest for the adventure and disappears.
Kyle comes to his senses at his house, opposite him walls, which apparently teaches him to fight on swords. Kyle, still not fully understanding where he, with force knocks out the sword from his father’s hands. Loni appears with a cart of buns, a crowd of children is rolled out of the shelter and pulls a delicious one with a squeal. Kyle and Loni forgot about what happened to them, and therefore began to behave as usual. Ruti went out into the street and Kyle announced to his parents that he wants to go on a trip and become a hero, having a little bit, his mother agrees, not to mention his father. Kyle and Loni decide to visit the nearest ruins (where they met Real Madrid for the first time), there Kyle seems to be calling him, he alone makes his way further to the meeting place and is where there was a healthy lens. Finding nothing, Kyle decides to return, but the light stops him. A strange unfamiliar girl appears in this light and spectacularly sinks to the ground. They look at each other for a while and suddenly remember everything. Real Madrid rushes to the neck of Kyle and … The end.
