Story
Fall of Heliseum
As the High Priestess of the Nova, Fenelle spent countless years in the sanctuary city of Pantheon, where she oversaw the Nova people and offered her counsel and wisdom during critical moments in Nova history. Fenelle was old enough to have witnessed the lives of three Kaisers, including the Kaiser who lived during the time of the Flora Civil War. After the Flora Civil War began, Fenelle and the Nova watched the conflict unfold over centuries as Gerand Darmoor began a war of genocide against the other races of Grandis. Following the battle of Aboris, the Nova knight Cartalion rushed to the Great Temple, where he announced that the Verdant Flora capital had fallen. With Darmoor having awakened as the Transcendent of Life, Fenelle realized that there were precious few left in Grandis capable of resisting the High Flora. She wondered whether anyone was capable of standing up to him, especially after Darmoor had stolen the power of Chronica, the Transcendent of Time. Realizing that Darmoor would attack their capital city of Heliseum, Kaiser decided to rush to the capital in order to defend the city from Darmoor's army. Though Fenelle warned him to take care, Kaiser reassured her by reminding her who he was.
However, when Kaiser arrived in Heliseum, he discovered that Magnus had already sacked the capital with the Specter army. Kaiser then sacrificed himself to mortally wound Magnus, buying the Nova priests enough time to take the survivors to Pantheon. Soon after, Cartalion escorted Beldar - the leader of the Heliseum Council - to Pantheon, where Beldar revealed that Kaiser had sacrificed his life to help the Nova escape. Though Cartalion wished to send reinforcements to Kaiser, Beldar vetoed the idea, claiming that their focus needed to be on deploying the Protective Shield over Pantheon. When Fenelle pointed out that they couldn't form the Protective Shield without their holy relic, the Outrigger, in Heliseum, Beldar explained that he had ordered the Nova priests to extract the power from the Outrigger. Though the priests hadn't had enough time to extract all of the Outrigger's power, he believed that they had gathered enough to protect Pantheon from Darmoor. Fenelle denounced Beldar as a coward who only ran to save himself, Beldar accepted the blame and noted that he had made the hard decision to save their people and live with the guilt of his actions.
Cartalion and Fenelle then began to wonder how the shield over Heliseum had fallen so easily, to which Beldar explained that Magnus had disabled the shield and brought in the Specter army to invade Heliseum. Fenelle asked Beldar about the fate of the royal family, with Beldar explaining that they had lost track of everything when the shield had fallen. However, he believed that if anyone in the royal family had survived, they would come to Pantheon, for which he emphasized the importance of getting the shield up as soon as possible. Fenelle noted that the power of the Outrigger may be unstable from being drained so suddenly, adding that it didn't help that the vessel wasn't intact. Because of this, she suggested splitting up the relic's power and splitting them up across Pantheon to ensure that the shield would remain active as long as not all the sacred stones were disabled at once. She suggested storing the Outrigger's power into four sacred stones which could only be handled by select high priests. Beldar approved Fenelle's suggestion and asked when the next Kaiser would reincarnate. Fenelle explained that Kaiser's spirit would select a child born after the death of the previous Kaiser, adding that all they could do was wait for the new Kaiser to reveal themselves. She also suggested keeping Kaiser's reincarnation a secret in order to prevent the enemy from targeting Nova children.
Theft of the Sacred Stone
Over the next several decades, Fenelle watched over three Nova children - Kyle, Tear, and Velderoth - who formed a close bond with each other. Though Tear was shunned by the other Nova for being born without magic or a tail, Fenelle watched over Tear from afar and protected her whenever she could. One day, the trio discovered several Nefarious Priests who served Magnus attempting to take the sacred stone in the East Sanctum. While Velderoth rushed to get reinforcements, Tear grabbed the sacred stone, which latched itself onto her arm. As the Nefarious Priests advanced on her, Kyle awakened as the new Kaiser and used his powers to defeat the priests. Fenelle, Cartalion, and Kylan rushed to the scene with Velderoth to witness Kyle's awakening, after which they brought the two unconscious children to the infirmary. Soon after, Tear awoke and learned that Kyle had awakened as the next Kaiser, as well as the fact that the sacred stone of the East Sanctum had attached itself to her arm. Upon learning that it was stuck to her, Tear realized that the Protective Shield had been permanently weakened because of her actions. Though the others attempted to reassure her that it wasn't her fault, as the Nefarious Priests would have stolen the stone anyway if she hadn't intervened, Tear was upset by the news and began crying before running off. Fenelle went after Tear and attempted to console her by pointing out that the fact that the sacred stone had reacted to her, when not even the priests had been able to awaken it, meant that she had to be special. Nevertheless, Tear noted that it still didn't change the fact that she had weakened the Protective Shield, adding that she was useless as ever before running off to the Heliseum Force hideout that she had made with Kyle and Velderoth.
Soon after, Kyle woke up in the infirmary and learned from Fenelle and Cartalion that he had awakened as the next Kaiser. As such, he had a grand destiny to live up to as the Guardian of the Nova. Kaiser then asked where Tear had gone, to which they explained that Tear had run off after learning that she had been cursed by the sacred stone. As Kylan had gone after her, Kaiser decided to let him handle it and instead began asking Fenelle about his new role. Fenelle told him that the destiny of Kaiser depended on the time that he was born into. Given the dire situation that the Nova found themselves in, she warned Kaiser that his destiny was sure to be one of the most burdensome of all. As Gerand Darmoor had conquered nearly all of Grandis, the Nova were the only ones left who could hope to fight against him. Though Darmoor was the Transcendent of Life, Fenelle hoped that a strong alliance of warriors backed by the powers of other Transcendents could help win the war, adding that it was his duty as Kaiser to see it through. She explained that the previous Kaiser had sacrificed himself to defeat Magnus and his army, and that Kaiserium, the legendary sword of Kaiser, had also disappeared with the previous Kaiser. Regarding the history of Grandis, Fenelle told him about the Flora Civil War and how Gerand Darmoor had awakened as the Transcendent of Life after seeing the Verdant Flora's disregard for life, though she noted that it remained unclear how precisely his awakening had transpired.
Kaiser and Angelic Buster
After Tear made a deal with Eskalade, a clone body of an Nova god who resided in the sacred stone, she transformed into the superhero Angelic Buster and began using her powers to help the Nova. As Angelic Buster decided to find Kaiser and Velderoth to tell them about her new powers, Eskalade stopped her and asked whether she was really planning to tell them. Angelic Buster replied that it would be fine to tell just two people, to which Eskalade told her that though he wouldn't stop her, he noted that if she were to become famous and fight on the battlefield, she might worry her friends. Angelic Buster realized that he was right, as the reason why she had wanted to become stronger was so that she wouldn't be a burden on her friends, for which she resolved to keep her identity secret. Eskalade instead suggested that she tell Fenelle instead, recalling that the two were quite close. In the Great Temple, Angelic Buster met with Fenelle, who immediately realized that she was Tear because of her energy. After Angelic Buster explained everything that had happened, Fenelle noted that she was indeed special after all. However, Fenelle asked that Angelic Buster keep her identity secret, fearing that others may target the remaining sacred stones if word got out that they were capable of passing on power. She then asked Angelic Buster what she wanted to do with her powers, to which Angelic Buster replied that she wanted to help the people of Pantheon. Fenelle told Angelic Buster to wait while she found something that she could help with.
Just then, Eskalade spoke to her and pointed out that simply helping the townspeople wouldn't increase her powers, as the Nova of Pantheon were too small a population, meaning that she would need to eventually go abroad. Just then, Fenelle returned and told Angelic Buster that she had nothing that she needed help with. Instead, she gave Angelic Buster a letter of introduction and asked her to speak with Cartalion. While Angelic Buster left on her mission, Kaiser was sent to Fenelle by Cartalion, who believed that with his new position, Kaiser ought to set his sights higher than simply doing trivial chores. Fenelle immediately realized that Cartalion wanted her to ask Kaiser to lead the knights. However, she told Kyle that Kaiser was never an all-powerful being immediately after awakening. She explained that she had known three Kaisers in her lifetime, and that all of them had started out as Kyle had, adding that both he and Tear were fast approaching their destinies. When Kaiser asked what she meant by Tear's destiny, Fenelle explained that Tear had gone to seek her fortune and that she had seemed inspired. She told him that whereas Kaiser sought to fulfill the people's expectations, Tear sought to prove herself in her own way, though she added that neither was the true path for either of them.
Invasion of Pantheon
After the Nefarious Priests stole one of the sacred stones in the West Sanctum, Kaiser reported the theft to Fenelle. After learning about the situation, Fenelle consulted with the other priests before telling Kaiser that they had determined that it would be impossible to maintain the Protective Shield with only half the sacred stones, and that once it failed, Darmoor's army would be able to invade Pantheon. She explained that even if they were able to reclaim the sacred stone, it would take time for it to recharge the Protective Shield, and as such, she told him that reclaiming the stone as soon as possible was paramount. With the Specter army invading Pantheon, Kaiser and the Nova knights worked to repel the enemy as Angelic Buster successfully recovered the sacred stone. Soon after, Kaiser met with Fenelle, who asked him to buy them time to power up the shield by reinforcing the other knights in the south. Though Kaiser fought to his limit, he was ultimately overwhelmed by the Specters. Just as he faltered, the Protective Shield was finally restored, immediately vaporizing all Specters inside Pantheon. After the battle was over, Kaiser realized that the Protective Shield was a powerful weapon against the Specters and formulated a plan to lure the entire Specter army inside the borders, where they would then reactivate the Protective Shield and wipe out all of Magnus' forces at once. He proposed his plan to Fenelle and Kylan, who supported his idea, despite knowing the risks that it posed. Kylan gave Kaiser the Magic Amplifier device used to activate the shield and asked him to bring it to Cartalion. Kaiser's plan successfully allowed the Nova to wipe out the vast majority of the Specter army, after which the Heliseum Council approved a plan to invade Tyrant's Castle.
Beldar instructed Kaiser to travel through the Interdimensional Portal to find allies to help them retake Heliseum, and so Kaiser went to see Fenelle, who told him that she would answer any questions that he had about the Interdimensional Portal. When Kaiser asked where the Interdimensional Portal had come from, Fenelle explained that it had been formed when Darmoor had stolen Chronica's powers, which had caused a tear in the fabric of spacetime. Though the Nova had determined that it led to another world, Fenelle explained that they had treated the portal with extreme caution, as they had enough to manage with Darmoor and Magnus, and did not wish to make an enemy of those who lay beyond the portal. Kaiser then asked her to tell him about Darmoor and Chronica, and so Fenelle explained that Darmoor was originally the prince of the High Flora, and that he had been enraged by the Verdant Flora's disregard for life during the long war, causing him to eventually awaken as the Transcendent of Life and use his powers to wipe out the Verdant Flora, after which he had begun to wage war against all of Grandis and remake life as he saw fit. Fenelle also explained that Chronica was the Transcendent of Time, though little was known about them. She told Kaiser that Darmoor had confronted Chronica at their sanctuary and had insisted that they help Darmoor. However, when Chronica had refused, Darmoor had sealed them away and stolen their powers. Fenelle added that alongside Darmoor and Chronica, Aeona was the Transcendent of Light, although no one in Grandis knew about her other than the fact that she existed. Kaiser asked her to explain who the Transcendents were, and so Fenelle told him that the Transcendents were representatives of the three Overseers, the beings who had created the world. She explained that not all Transcendents were the same, as some were created immortal, whereas others were mortal and reincarnated. After having answered Kaiser's questions, Fenelle asked Kaiser to meet with Cartalion, who helped him and Angelic Buster begin their journey into Maple World.
Meeting Cadena
After Cadena resolved to travel to Maple World, she met with Fenelle, who felt as though Cadena seemed familiar and asked if they had met before. Cadena remembered that the priests would sometimes visit the castle and wondered if Fenelle recognized her from then. However, Fenelle then said that she must have confused Cadena for someone else. She told Cadena that the Shadowdealers had vouched for her strength, but that she wished to test Cadena's strength, since they didn't know what dangers awaited them in the new world. She then asked Cadena to see Beldar and Cartalion, who would each conduct a test of strength. After passing Beldar's test to collect Onyx Stonegar Magic Stones and Cartalion's test to defeat Gravi Stonegars, Cadena received permission to use the Interdimensional Portal. Before Fenelle could show her how to use the portal, Cadena felt a sudden rush of homesickness and ran back to Savage Terminal to say goodbye to Gen. Though he made fun of Cadena for her sentimentality, Gen told her to take care while in the new world and explained that he would tell the other Shadowdealers that he had sent her on a special mission in order to cover up her absence. With that, she returned to the Great Temple, where Fenelle instructed her on how to use the portal. She also mentioned that Cadena could use the Interdimensional Portal in the Six Path Crossway to return. With that, Cadena began her journey in Maple World.
Meeting Ark
After Ark traveled to Pantheon in order to use the Interdimensional Portal, he immediately felt his power being drained and collapsed on the ground. He was awoken by Kaiser, who was alarmed by Ark's Flora ears and Specter arm. He, along with Cartalion, Beldar, and Fenelle, took Ark to the edge of the Protective Shield, where they began to question him. Beldar noted that Ark had Flora ears, but no magic wings, and suspected that he was related to the last group of Flora children who had come to Pantheon recently. Cartalion pointed out that Ark's arm was definitely Specter, noting that he had been weakened by the Protective Shield, which was intended to keep Specters out, and wondered whether Ark was in league with Magnus. Kaiser countered that Ark would have known about the Protective Shield if that were true, which Fenelle agreed with. Ark then explained that he was a deserter of the High Flora army, and that he now fought against them. Though he explained his situation, Beldar still didn't trust him, but Fenelle told them that Ark's auratic vibration was tranquil, and that she sensed that he had a strong will to do good. With Fenelle's approval, the group agreed to allow Ark to travel through the Interdimensional Portal and left Kaiser to escort him there.
Meeting Hoyoung
After Hoyoung sought to find the missing fiends he was searching for in Maple World, he traveled to Pantheon, where he encountered Fenelle, who recognized Hoyoung as an Anima. She told him that they had seen an increase in the number of heroes who had come to the Interdimensional Portal for training, but Hoyoung was the first Anima who had ever visited them. Hoyoung explained that even if another Anima had come through, they likely would have hidden their animal features, and so Fenelle might not have recognized an Anima if she saw one. He then asked her what he had to do in order to cross over to Maple World, to which Fenelle told him that she wanted to look into his soul in order to see if he aligned with good or evil. She sensed that Hoyoung didn't differentiate between good and evil in the methods that he used to accomplish his goals, though his will itself cherished that which was good. She then explained that Athena Pierce was the de facto representative of Maple World's Explorers and offered to let her know of his arrival in advance. After she contacted Athena Pierce, Fenelle activated the portal and allowed Hoyoung to pass through.
Meeting Adele
After Adele decided to train in Maple World, she arrived outside the Protective Shield, where Nova soldiers immediately surrounded her. Cartalion, Beldar, and Fenelle arrived to meet her and demanded to know her purpose. Adele told them that she had come to use the Interdimensional Portal, but Cartalion and Beldar believed that she had an ulterior motive. Fenelle then requested to speak with Adele alone and escorted her to the Great Temple. There, she asked Adele once again why she had come to Pantheon. Adele explained that there was something in the other dimension that she needed. To her surprise, Fenelle asked if she was searching for her past and recited a prophecy made several days ago, “A knight will emerge from the dark, and with the light as their compass, make their way to the sanctuary of the dragon.” Adele admitted that she had been locked away in the Void for countless years until she had woken up recently in Ristonia, explaining the broad strokes of her adventures there. Fenelle apologized for further delaying her journey and asked to see if Adele's heart was filled with good intentions. Fenelle sensed that Adele had a noble heart, perhaps relentless in the face of injustice, but one that would never harm the innocent. She then gave Adele permission to enter the Interdimensional Portal, instructing her to meet with Athena Pierce. Before she left, Adele asked if anyone else from Grandis had already traveled through the portal. Fenelle cryptically replied that she would discover the answer on her own in due time. Some time later, Adele received a letter from Fenelle, who wrote that while the Nova had been investigating Adele, they had also discovered an old item in their possession which was connected to the prior God-King. She also wrote that she had asked Angelic Buster to deliver the item to her. Adele went to the Heliseum Hideout in Pantheon, where she met Angelic Buster. After introducing herself, Angelic Buster warned that though she was unsure whether Adele used to work for Gerand Darmoor, she would need to choose a side after recovering her memories and recommended that she pick the Nova over Darmoor. She also told Adele that her people had been brutally massacred by Darmoor, and that anyone who served him was her enemy, adding that she hoped that Fenelle wasn't wrong about Adele. With that, she delivered the item and left.
Meeting Kain
After Kain traveled to Pantheon, he was quickly stopped by the border guards. Beldar and Cartalion greeted him and asked him for his purpose. Kain refrained from mentioning that he was a Black Nova, though he was intrigued to be in the homeland of his ancestors. He explained that he wanted to use the Interdimensional Portal, and so they escorted him to the Great Temple. Kain found himself to be socially awkward, as he was only used to dealing with assassins and criminals. Just then, Fenelle approached him and, having felt the Malice inside him, recognized him as the descendant of the Black Nova and a disciple of the corrupted dragon. Kain asked if she was going to call the guards, but Fenelle explained that she had no reason to, as she had been waiting for him ever since an oracle had foretold his arrival. She told him that at first, she hadn't been able to believe that there were any more Black Nova left after the purge. However, she reassured him that their clans' blood feud had gone away with the Ancient Gods and told him that she believed that no one should have to pay for the actions of their ancestors. She then offered to answer any questions that he had. When Kain asked about the Black Nova, she told him that she had only read one line in an ancient text that mentioned a Nova clan mesmerized by Satiras the Devil Dragon and his power of Malice, which described Malice as the ruthlessness to stop at nothing for one's chosen goals. She supposed that Malice existed for a reason, as did all things. Regarding Maple World, she told him that it was a land of adventure, where its people were fighting against their corrupted Transcendent of Light, the Black Mage. With no other questions, Kain made his way to Maple World and sought out Athena Pierce at Fenelle's recommendation, who suggested that he help others around Maple World.
Meeting Lara
When Lara traveled to Pantheon, Tear and Kyle met her at the outskirts at Fenelle's instructions. They escorted her to the Great Temple, where Fenelle looked into Lara's heart in order to determine whether she was worthy of using the Interdimensional Portal. Fenelle sensed that Lara had a strong will and fully trusted others, which she considered to be both admirable and rare. Having passed Fenelle's test, Lara used the Interdimensional Portal and arrived in Maple World.
Meeting Khali
After Khali fled Erimos, she traveled on foot to Pantheon and passed out from exhaustion at the border. Soon after, Kaiser found Khali passed out at the border of the Protective Shield and immediately recognized her as a High Flora. He noted that she was wounded and decided to treat her injuries while keeping an eye on her. Soon after, Khali awoke to the sight of Kaiser and Fenelle. Kaiser introduced himself as the Guardian of the Nova and asked her why she had come to Pantheon. Khali explained that she had come across Pantheon while running away and promised that she meant no harm to his people. However, Kaiser replied that he found it difficult to believe and asked why she had come to Pantheon, if not to attack them. Khali then told him everything that had happened to her on Erimos, after which she explained that the only reason she now lived was to get revenge. Fenelle told Kaiser that she sensed a strong rage inside Khali, and that she didn't believe that Khali was lying. Kaiser and Fenelle then took Khali inside the Great Temple, where overwhelming feelings of vengeance awakened inside her. She recalled that she had brought herself to survive only for the sake of revenge, and that she would never forget her rage and frustration, which allowed her to awaken some of the power that she had lost to Ypsilon. Fenelle then told Khali that she would need to regain her strength in order to get her revenge, and so she suggested that Khali travel through the Interdimensional Portal in order to go to Maple World. She explained that the High Flora were hated by the people of Grandis, which would make it difficult for Khali to train there. Realizing that Fenelle was right, Khali decided that training in Maple World would be for the best, and so she agreed to heed Fenelle's advice. Fenelle told Khali to seek out Athena Pierce, who would be able to help her on her journey, and noted that her coming to Pantheon and her path ahead was all part of fate's plans for her. Soon after, Fenelle called Khali back to Pantheon, explaining that a High Flora who claimed to know her had come. She added that they had asked her to mention that they had come to deliver a white scarf, and that Khali would understand what they meant. Khali immediately realized that the white scarf belonged to Rasha and decided to return to Pantheon, where she discovered her father's servant, Nile, who pledged himself to help Khali however he could.
Meeting Xenon
After Xenon traveled to Grandis in order to escape Beryl, he was directed by Cartalion to meet with Fenelle, who could help him learn more about Grandis. He also asked Xenon to give her a letter that he had received from Angelic Buster, which contained information that Fenelle would find noteworthy. After he delivered the letter, Fenelle explained that Pantheon was usually peaceful, but that it had lately become much more chaotic. Xenon spoke with Fenelle and asked to tell him about the chaos in Pantheon. Fenelle told him about their struggle against Gerand Darmoor, as well as the recent loss of one of their sacred stones. Fenelle then asked Xenon if he could patrol the Eastern and Western borders, which had been weakened due to the loss of the sacred stone. At the outskirts, Xenon fought and defeated several Specters and returned to Fenelle, who thanked him for his help.
Report from Magatia
After the Maple Alliance discovered the Black Mage's laboratory in Magatia, Neinheart gave Kaiser a report containing information about the Transcendents. Kaiser returned to Pantheon and discussed the document with Fenelle. She noted that the main takeaway was how something strange seemed to happen when Transcendents used each other's powers, as Darmoor's use of Chronica's powers had resulted in several Interdimensional Portals appearing all across Grandis. She also noted that Magnus had disappeared from Maple World after the Black Mage had taken Rhinne's power. Kaiser asked if it meant that the Interdimensional Portals appeared when other Transcendents used the power of the Transcendent of Time. Fenelle replied that it seemed to be the case and conjectured that Magnus had returned to Grandis when the Black Mage had used Rhinne's power, which may have accounted for the time gap between him leaving Maple World and arriving on Grandis. Kaiser then pointed out that the Interdimensional Portals on Maple World had just been discovered recently. Fenelle reasoned that the power of time had likely been sealed away along with the Black Mage, but just then, she realized that the Interdimensional Portals reappearing meant that the seal on the Black Mage must have been broken, allowing for the power of time to form the Interdimensional Portals once again. Fenelle told Kaiser that the Alliance needed to be informed immediately and warned him that with Maple World facing the return of their biggest threat, and with the Nova preparing to launch their attack on Magnus, the situation had gotten much more serious.
Siege of Heliseum
With the Nova preparing to retake Heliseum alongside the Alliance, Fenelle began making preparations to summon the heroes of Grandis. She sent letters to Hoyoung, Adele, and Khali asking for their aid in retaking the capital, and vouched for the Flora heroes of Grandis so that they could assist the Nova in the operation. After the Ace of the Alliance accepted Neinheart's request to aid the Nova, they used the Interdimensional Portal at the Six Path Crossway to travel to the Great Temple in Pantheon, where they met with Fenelle. Fenelle greeted them as a hero of Maple World and told them that she had been told that Maple World would be sending warriors to help the Nova, adding that she hoped that the relationship between the Nova and the Alliance would continue to prosper. She then led the Alliance member to Beldar, who expressed his sincere gratitude to them for lending their aid. Following the operation to retake Heliseum, Fenelle sent a letter to Beldar about Khali's role in retaking Heliseum, prompting Beldar to apologize to her. She also asked Beldar to send her best wishes to Kain and asked him to tell Kain: "Memories and Malice are one. You will find both, whether you want them or not."
Meeting Zero
After Alpha and Beta entered the portal to Maple World, they unexpectedly hit something between dimensions, forcing them to arrive in Pantheon instead. As Cartalion confronted them, they asked to know whether they were in Maple World, to which Fenelle told them that they were in Grandis, not Maple World. Suddenly, another intruder arrived and asked them to follow him, promising that it wasn't a trap. He led them to a space between dimensions, where they encountered the Black Mage's Commanders.
