Long ago, a malevolent dragon of the skies appeared from nowhere and laid waste to the land, but a hero garbed in green (the color of life) forged a celestial sword from the elements and cunningly sealed away the beast. Again with the use of the elements, the people rebuilt their civilization.

The same group responsible for the incident did not die away. It continued in an underground fashion, operating until the present day. Once again it plans to release the Third Realm Dragon. When it does so, they plan to take its power over the seasons and sculpt the world as they see fit.

Your main character is one day washed up on a beach, without any memories of his life up until that point. He is soon taken up by the local community of Cierna, a small village at the foot of Mount Bardoh, though separated by the Orabe Forest.

Will you find Group O? Can you stop them? Will Hero turn out to be a Legendary Hero?
Will you save the world? Can you find out how to? Will you destroy all that is good and join the dark side? Sorry, you can’t do the latter.

There are three realms, it is told. The first is the realm of chaos, of infinite possibility. The second is of order, of a divine perfection that holds the essences of all that adhere to order.

Then, there is the third realm, a realm where reflection is the rule and order and chaos mix to create a new, fresh reality.
The reflection of celestial order is split into the elements. These elements were then worshipped by the various people of the world, who built temples called Temoke as shrines to the (what they viewed as) fundamental forces that comprised their life. Fire, ice, wind, and earth, which all combined to give them their life, were viewed as the only necessary components of life…

Spoiler

Hero

The amnesiac who you play as throughout the journey. First supposed by Cierna to be a “hero in green” to fight Group O, but you quickly learn that’s not the case.
Raizzen

A jerk and skillfully so, Raizzen often likes to take childish jabs at the protagonist for simply hogging all the glory. He uses the Earth element and can attack using the power of plants and biology. Someday he will germinate and grow out of his bad habits. Hopefully his character will Raizzen he’ll leave you alone.
Kyran

A legendary hero from another land, apparently. Really just a foreign traveler taken from his Inn and forced to confront the great evils of Group O.
Alex

A girl from the Hardrox Desert who excels in hand-to-hand combat. She uses her wind elemental powers to create strong currents and really doesn’t condone Raizzen’s rude behavior.
Shark
[THE ONLY PICTURES ARE CLASSIFIED MUGSHOTS]
A commander of Orobos’ forces. He is even more hateful than Raizzen and really does not enjoy kids.
Orobos

The mysterious figure leading Group O toward its goal. All his followers speak of him in reverence.

Spoiler

More than just dungeon crawling! Overworld powers give you the ability to solve map puzzles.
Though there may not be many now, dungeons will also be expanded in the future.

The mayor has an urgent message!


Time to team up in order to…


Take on the bad guys!


One of these horses is not like the other…


Outside the Earth Temoke.


The Earth Temoke proper.


Roaming monsters and wildlife. Notice the HUD. The pink icon in the left signifies that you are able to jump, and the blue bar is an overworld power point gauge. The minimap on the bottom is very useful.


Battling said monsters.


Showing off that fancy new wardrobe in front of the house.


They call him that for a reason.


Campin’ with the man.


Explore dangerous volcanoes!


A sneak-peak at what awaits you in the Fire Temoke…


Oh yes he does!


Light up those previously dark caves on command by using the powers of your hero to access places you’ve never been before!


Hanging out with the local shopkeeper. Man it must be cold.


Mining for precious, precious mythril. Will you get soft metal? Will your pickaxe break?
Keep an eye out for the special element deposits, rumored to be located deep in the temoke…

The battle system looks quite interesting! I think I'll give it a try

Useful Info:
-To be updated as feedback from players comes in-

-Text file in Third Realm folder contains additional info-

---Part 1---
Press F5 to play the game at triple speed.
The early-game status-inducing moves like Sand Dust and Dance Moves are VERY inaccurate. The paralysis and electric moves are your best bets.
The book in your house gives you GENERAL pointers for where you needed to progress the plot.
The mirror in your house allows you to change costumes.
Books, notes, and mirrors, and stalagmites are really the only objects worth interacting with. This isn’t one of those games where EVERYTHING has a description.
The Mind's Eye ability will only be useful in maps that you haven't explored before getting it.
The fairy shoes are in the lit earth temoke room with a hole in the floor.
After getting the fairy shoes, explore the entire room FULLY.
After the chicken game there is a hidden door in the northern part of the chicken room.

---Part 2---
You should look for the mysterious powder. It’s known to have explosive properties. Hopefully you search the fire temoke to its full extent…

USEFUL ITEMS and Tips
Grind off of Treese until you're level 4. They drop Good Luck Charms once in a while (really useful.)
Mind’s eye will nab you quite a few useful items in the fire temoke and beyond.

MYTHRIL ARMOR
Buy 2 or 3 pickaxes from the item shop in Cierna (your hometown) and head back to the cave near the earth Temoke (the one with the woman in front of it.) You can mine mythril from the stalagmites in that cave. Once you have enough (maybe 4 or 5) head back to Cierna and buy mythril armor from the weapon/armor shop.

SHOPS
You can go to Hardrox by going east of Cierna to the area with the horses. Hardrox has better weapons and armor than Cierna. The shop is on the east side of town.
Frostip has even better armors and weapons, but you will probably only have enough money for that after beating the fire temoke.
