Two young men wake up in an unfamiliar forest. They don't remember anything before this except their names. Lloyd and Asbel soon hear the cries of a frantic child nearby! They go to save the troubled child and are soon greeted by a curious green sprite. It seems they've been transported to Revalia, a dream world. They agree to help Terun, the small green sprite, who calls them "awakened dreamers," purify the so called Vuul and meet Natalia and Rubia along the way. What awaits them in Revalia?

Lloyd All right, just one more on top here, and... Yep. Looking good! One defensive barricade a la Lloyd, ready for service!

Flynn The Vuul won't be able to get into the village so easily now.

Terun Thank you so much, Lloyd.

Asbel That's nice work, Lloyd. You must have done this before!

Lloyd Ah, I just enjoy building things. Anyway, what's the plan now?

Asbel Well, the Vuul population has increased so much that it's hard to imagine we could possibly eradicate them all.

Natalia Right. So we need to find the source of the increase. Terun, do you Rufres have any theories?

Terun

I... I'm sorry. No one knows anything!

If there were still any dreamcatchers around, they might...

Rubia Where did all the dreamcatchers go?

Terun No one knows! The last time anyone saw them, they were heading towards the mountains west of here.

Asbel West, huh? Well, that sounds like the obvious place to start.

Natalia Right. We're not going to learn anything more by hanging around here. We need to get proactive.

Terun Um... Excuse me...

Lloyd Yeah, and that should give us a chance to find any other awakened dreamers that could be out there.

Terun Listen! You can't go that far from the village! Without Rufres to keep them in check, the Vuul there are too strong!

The Vuul in that area are dangerous even when they don't have bodies! Even for awakened dreamers!

Lloyd But you Rufres can purify the ones without physical forms, right? So what if you came with us?

Terun N-No! I mean, yes, you're right, but...

There aren't any Rufres here who would dare go into Vuul territory like that! That's w-w-way too scary!

Rubia You pulled us into this world and now you won't even help us?

Natalia We'll just have to find another way. The Rufres clearly haven't the strength for that kind of combat.

Lloyd And despite that, Terun bravely came with us when we were clearing out the area around the vilage.

Rubia So he just gets to stay home by saying he's "scared"? I mean, I'm scared, too...

Hey, I gotta ask—how are we supposed to get back to our own world, anyway? Will we wake up if we beat the Vuul?

Terun I think that... Maybe if we reversed the ritual, you'd all wake up in your own worlds?

If we got everyone in the village together, they could do it... Do you want me to...?

Flynn No. Not yet.

Terun No?

Flynn You said that our worlds and Revalia are influencing each other, right? So we can't go back yet.

Asbel Flynn is right. We can't abandon this world—not only for its sake, but for the sake of our own world as well.

And besides, I never ignore someone in need. Even in a dream!

Terun You... You mean...

Lloyd Yeah, we can't leave things like this. And you know, I got a feeling I used to fight like this for people all the time.

Rubia Fine, fine. Well I'm not gonna be the one jerk who wants to go home! I'm in! I'm doing this!

Natalia Admirable words from you all. And of course, I'd be happy to lend my bow, if you'd have it.

Terun ...

I... I guess...

Lloyd The problem is, how are we gonna get around outside of the city?

Terun I'll do it!

Lloyd Huh?

Terun I-I-I-I'll c-c-come w-w-w-with you! Let's g-go!

Flynn You will? We appreciate the offer, but we'll be going quite a ways outside of your village. Don't push yourse—

Terun I said I'll do it! I can't just wait in the village while you all risk your lives for us.

I won’t let it happen!

Asbel Are you sure about this?

Terun I'm scared, bu-bu-but... I've made up my mind!

Asbel All right. Then welcome to the team! We'll make sure to keep you safe.

Terun Th-Thanks!

Flynn I admire the courage you've shown today, Terun.
