Yet, as before, the overall plot and story feel paper-thin, barely providing enough motivation to move forward and hunt monsters. The new NPCs have a lot of personality, aside from the admiral who rarely cracks a smile. Once in Elgado, players will get to meet a new host of smiling faces.

Thankfully, Fiorayne, a knight from Elgado, rushes in to assist. While fighting it off, an unknown, vicious monster shows up to turn the tables on the Hunter. Unfortunately, the Hunter receives a call to action only a short time later as a Daimyo Hermitaur shows up to wreak havoc in the shrine ruins.
