PART II: AFTER THE SEALING OF THE BLACK MAGE

Chapter 18: The Knight and the Prince

• After Adele was sealed in the Void by Veronica during the coup to overthrow the God-King, she spent centuries imprisoned, gradually losing all her memories. Eventually, she heard the voice calling out for help, which freed her from her prison and allowed her to manifest on the moon of Ristonia before a boy named Jerome, who was being chased by the royal guards.

• Without her memories, Adele reluctantly agreed to help Jerome, who was planning an uprising against the greedy Count Cedric. As the pair continued working together, they developed a mutual respect for each other. Adele slowly also began regaining more of her memories after coming into contact with objects from her past, allowing her to recall that she had once been part of the Knights of the Einherjar - the royal guard of the God-King.

• During their mission to stop Cedric, Adele encountered Veronica, who amusedly told Adele to face her once she regained her old power and memories. Soon after, Adele began feeling the pull of the Void threatening to imprison her once again, though Jerome helped Adele overcome her feelings of despair.

• Adele and Jerome soon learned that Cedric was planning to find a key that could awaken an Ancient God who slumbered beneath Ristonia, despite a prophecy that foretold Ristonia’s doom once that god awakened. Adele also learned that Jerome was the last prince of Ristonia, and that he was fighting to retake his throne from Cedric in order to free the kingdom from his selfish reign.

• After Jerome was captured, Adele regained more of her memories that let her remember the opening battle of the Flora Civil War, as well as a mysterious voice which had freed her from the Void, urging her to save her new liege. Vowing not to fail Jerome after failing to protect her old liege, Adele rushed after him and managed to defeat Cedric’s forces before taking the key that Cedric had hoped to give to the High Flora.

• After defeating Cedric, the uprising managed to overthrow him and take back the city. With Cedric having lost his throne and the key, Veronica ordered him to be taken away. Jerome then decided to go on a mission to hide the key and grow strong enough to become a good king. Meanwhile, Adele traveled to Maple World in order to recover her lost memories.

• During her time in Maple World, Adele encountered several heroes of Grandis, such as Angelic Buster, who warned her that she would need to take a side in the upcoming conflict against Darmoor, who had succeeded her old liege as the new God-King. As she recovered her memories, she also recalled being deemed a traitor to the God-King, causing her to have doubts over whether she had really kept her oath to her king.
