Shiba's Story

You've been waiting for awhile now, but the time has finally arrived. Lady Syl wishes to meet with you. Come to Kerning City. I will send you to The Secret Garden.

Secret Garden?

Oh, I forgot to mention... The Secret Garden is the headquarters for the Dual Blades. It's also home to Lady Syl. And now, you're finally qualified enough to enter! Since it's hidden from others, you'll need to go through me to get there. So, come see me in Kerning City.

My job is simply to get you in. You can find out more details from Shiba once you're inside The Secret Garden. Legend has it that he is capable of destroying anything he touches...

Do you still have some unfinished business or what? Remember, you're a Dual Blade and you'll have to enter The Secret Garden sooner or later.

Welcome. You're the one they call [Nombre], right? I had received word from Ryden that you'd be coming. But I'm surprised...you look a bit weaker than I had expected. Nevertheless, I've heard about your accomplishments and I must say, I'm impressed. Well, let me tell you a little bit about the Dual Blades.

We're a group of people united for one common task: to fulfill the wish of Lady Syl. Lady Syl is convinced that Jin, the current Dark Lord, came into power by assassinating the former Dark Lord.

With all the speculation surrounding him, and with evidence that seems quite convincing, the current Dark Lord is simply not suited for his role.

That is why we believe Jin isn't qualified to be the true master of Kerning City. Our mission is to restore the Dark Lord's position and bring justice.

For this mission, we have left everything. We have set aside our shields and picked up our blades. Our days are hard and we get no recognition. But we have chosen to walk this difficult path in hopes that one day, justice will prevail.

Well, that's enough from me. You can hear the rest from Yun. Yun should be upstairs. You should go make your way to see her now.
