About this game
The balance between light and shadow has been shattered—
the leader of the Shadowborne, the Shadow King, has stolen the light, plunging the land into darkness.
As a warrior of the Lightborn, you are forced to bear the burden of both vengeance and salvation—
to bring hope back to your people.
Recover the Fragments of Light, mystical shards that grant you the power to move between light and shadow. These fragments become the source of your strength as you advance through each stage and defeat your enemies.
You must adapt quickly, using the powers granted by the fragments to counter foes, and cleverly manipulate the light and shadow around you to solve puzzles, overcome dangers, and keep moving forward.
[Real-time switching and mastery of diverse fragment abilities]
Wield the Blade of Dawn—its radiant power cuts down anything that stands in your way!
There are five unique Light Fragments, each granting multiple abilities.
You’ll need to switch between them strategically as you fight through each stage.
It’s not just about surviving enemy attacks—
you’ll also have to think on your feet, figuring out how to move forward and stay alive amid the chaos.
[Use light to illuminate all darkness!]
Do light and darkness complement each other or consume each other?
Is what the naked eye sees actually a lie?
Just believe... even your shadow can become your ally!
[Defend! Attack!]
Beyond the intense and thrilling battles, Estelle embarks on a journey to reclaim the lost fragments and save her family and her people.
Explore the mystical continent of Elanbris, uncovering the forgotten past between the Lightborn and the Shadowborne, and follow the traces of her missing father.
This is not merely a path of redemption—
it is an adventure of bloodline and memory, a quest to rediscover who you truly are.
[What truly happened between the Lightborn and the Shadowborne...?]

Will the journey end with the glorious return of the Lightborn warrior,
or is there another story waiting to be revealed?
When light falls and darkness is reborn—
set forth across Elanbris to reclaim the lost fragments.
Wield light as your blade to carve a path forward;
embrace shadow as your guide to uncover the truth.
At the boundary where light and dark intertwine,
the world awaits its final choice—
and you will decide whether dawn shall rise once more.
