XALE is a mystical medieval-like world governed by the eight Divinities of the elements:
Ashe, Rayne, Glacia, Terrin, Starr, Luna, Silva, and Tempess.
They keep the world protected and regulated.
Over time, these goddesses have been mysteriously falling asleep,
affecting the seasons in catastrophic ways.
As a result of their slumber, lyrical priestesses known as Stonesingers,
are convinced by the Crusaders to make a pilgrimage across Xale to
awaken all eight Divinities to prevent further calamity.
But how will the heroes avoid the deadly wrath of the goddesses?
Understanding the mystery of ghost shards may be the key to victory.
Aelina Rowan
A 20-year old songstress working at the Snowblanket Lodge in the town of Evertear. She is one of the many daughters of the infamed Necromancer, Midlyn Rowan. She continuously has a cheerful and spirited demeanor, but harbors a dark-side that comes out randomly. She uses Scythes and Staffs in combat, and specializes in supporting her allies; although she can be a capable fighter as well.
Narie Tearwyn
A 23-year old Crusader who lost her twin sister, Sarie several years prior to the story. The oldest female of the group, she acts as a motherly figure, with her constant nagging. She prefers one-handed weapons such as swords and maces with her shield during combat. She is an all-rounder during battle - capable of dealing damage, healing, and tanking.
Zarric Bastion
Aelina's 24-year old boyfriend and childhood sweetheart. He was the son of a general, before a twisted plot killed his father. He is very optimistic, and always looks at the bright side of things. He swings his large two-handed axe or hammer in battle heavily, and focuses on dishing out damage during battle.
Demi Carinae
A 29-year old captain of the Crusaders, who is the oldest member of the group. He is a renowned ladies' man and a constant jokester, but can get serious when the time is right. He wields a spear in battle and specializes in taking hits.
Kyran Sage
A mysterious 24-year old man who hides his face. He is cold-hearted and does not seem to care about anyone - despite traveling with a young girl. He uses two curved blades in battle and focuses on taking enemies down quickly.
Poppy
A 15-year old girl who came from an enchanted forest that was burned down. She is very shy and timid, yet has a love for books - making her very intelligent for her age. She travels with Kyran who saved her life. She is the a long-distance fighter, utilizing magic and her longbow in battle.
Reina Rowan
Aelina's 18-year old sister who rivals her in Stonesinging. Favored by their father, Midlyn, she finally get to travel the world with his permission. She is heavily spoiled and very cocky. She can use staffs and curved blades in battle, and serves as the game's main healer.
