===   Features


- A Tale of Ruin
 The warfare in the kingdom of Klövsdal between Hornese and Lausraumese is depicted from the perspective of the Hornese Earl Freyja.
The Horns, who had military superiority through their unique magic of spiritism, were optimistic when Lausraumese, who once fought for control of Klövsdal, invaded the peninsula again. How will you face that future when you realize that it is doomed?


- All stats are normally attackable
Normal attacks can damage all stats. Even a well-defended foe will be stripped bare if his defenses are reduced, and even a warrior with superior strength will quickly lose his offensive power.
Weakened parameters cannot be easily recovered, so players must also ensure that each unit does not lose any of its qualities.


- Rogue-like
The companions under Freyja's command die and never come back to life. If they cannot advance any further, players can surrender to the enemy and end the story themselves.

Players can take over items and other items to challenge the battlefield as many times as they wish, with randomly changing companions and storylines.
