Join Klein Kiesling and his fairy friend Popo on an adventure of alchemical discovery. While camping out one day, a beast attacks Klein and the hapless youth is saved by an alchemist named Rita Blanchimont. The two wind up joining forces to discover hidden secrets of alchemy to use in their adventure. The world is made of spirits (called Mana) in Atelier no Iris. There's wood spirits, air spirits, life spirits and others for a total of 14 Mana. Characters may wield the spirits for creating elixirs, spells, and skills to use during the quest. From the publisher Regallzine. The world of Regallzine, the dwelling place of the Great Spirit, Mana, is comprised of three continenets surrounded by a vast sea. The region of Esviore is, by far, the most nature abundant land in this world. The Esviore region has been under the rule of king Slaith. However, partly because the South Esviore region (S. Esviore) is entirely surrounded by mountains and sea, and partly because of the monsters that began to appear about 100 years ago, king Slaith ī s ruling powers over S. Esviore began to diminish. Today, S. Esviore is no longer under the king ī s rule. Each city and town in S. Esviore rules its own land. Avenberry is the largest of these cities in S. Esviore. A world sustained by the Great Spirit Mana and its elemental powers. Every substance and object in this world is formed by the elements. People lived under the protection and guidance of the Mana. To the people of Regallzine, Mana exists as part of nature like the wind and trees. However, there are a few select people capable of creating something out of nothing using the powers of Mana called alchemist. Klein Kiesling, age 17, grandson of Dafune a famous alchemist, embarks on a journey with Popo the Mana of wood, after his grandmotherīs death, to surpass her as an alchemist. Walking through the dark forest of South Esvior, Klein encounters a vicious monster. Klein bravely battles the monster, but his Mana strength slowly diminishes. When everything seemed lost, a beautiful young girl named Lita came to Kleinīs rescue. Lita is a monster hunter at the neighboring town of Kavok. She advises Klein that the path to Kavok is dangerous and he will need her help. Klein rejects her advice from his selfish pride, insisting that he will make it through the forest alone. After the two depart, Klein felt ashamed for not thanking Lita for her life saving help. Exiting out from the forest, Klein stood on a cliff overlooking the great plains of Esvior. What he saw from the cliff was a city built upon a steep mountain. The city Klein saw is the infamous city to the Esviore region, known as the city in the sky, Avenberry. Klein and Lita do not know yet, that the two will knock on the gates of heaven, opening the ancient path to the legendary "city in the sky." View the back cover and screenshots.
