In a surprising twist, the deceased king activates a grand spell upon his death, initiating a race for the throne decided by popular vote. Consequently, this unprecedented event, known as the Tournament for the Throne, requires candidates to prove their worth by facing challenges in various cities across the kingdom.

The game’s world is described as vast and perilous, with vicious animals roaming the land and mysterious creatures known as “humans” inhabiting areas outside the cities. In addition, this dangerous environment adds to the challenges faced by the protagonist and their allies as they navigate the kingdom.

The Tournament for the Throne introduces a unique political element to the game. Additionally, candidates must visit major cities across Euchronia to participate in various trials. The first challenge, called the Exhibition of the Brave, takes place in Port Brilehaven and involves a competition to bring in the largest monster head. Successful candidates will then move on to challenges in Altabury Heights and Gran Trad.

As players progress through the story, they will uncover the complex history of Euchronia, including its foundation by a valiant first king and subsequent rule by a magically powerful royal bloodline. Furthermore, the game promises to explore themes of prejudice, disparity, and the struggle for power in a decaying kingdom.
