Prologue

In Another World...

A melancholy song drifts on
the wind far from Shinju Forest...

On the cliffs stands a young girl, gazing distantly
and playing her flute.

"Hakugin, where are you?
Please, say something..."

"Gather to me..."
"...my Koju..."

"That voice! Hakugin!? I can hear him..."

"I've got to find him. Hold on Hakugin."

Having won their battle with Larsa, Reco and Palm
began their lives in peaceful Shinju Forest.

This quiet morning finds Reco gathering Burst Seeds on
her walk around the forest, and Palm playing in the
sky with his dragon Hirow. A day that could last forever...

How could they know that an event so distant
would drag them into the fray...
