i.Intro
Ephemeral Fantasia is one of the fist true RPG's for the Playstation 2 console. This is
my first ever faq written and I am happy it is for this game. As for a lot of people this game
took me by surprise.
I think this is the funnest game I have played since Final Fantasy 7. This game has it's
own unique battle and ability system. You start out going with the flow of the game and then
end up on your own. Another fun aspect to this game is that you have to search for pieces of
the your map of Pandule.
The ability system is pretty straight foreward. You start out with one or two abilities
and go from there. You gain abiliteis by using them in battle. Every Character has there own
abilities and magic.
I decided to write this faq because the only one I have seen is for the Japanese version
of the game. I really hope you enjoy.
===============================================================================================
ii.Story(from the manual)
The island of Pandule, country of sun, sea, and freedom, is a virtual 'Garden of Eden'.
A lone island surrounded by perilous seas, it boasts abundeant natural resources and has no
neighbors to present the treat of war. Those who set foot on this island never want to leave,
and in fact, no one of any visitors who have gone home.
One day a letter from Pandule arrived at the home of a young man. It was from the Lord
Xelpherpolis, ruler of Pandule. He wanted our hero to compose a song for his wedding
celebration five days hence. Thus, the young composer shed his less respectable identity for a
while and set out for the legendary Pandule.
