Talk:Grandia II

Considering a shorter plot
Grandia II has a very long plot summary so I am considering a shortened version, which reduces spoilers. Basically, just summarising the start of the plot and then what will follow: "The story begins with Ryudo, a Geohound (a type of mercenary) and his companion Skye, a talking bird, accepting a new job from the Church of Granas. Ryudo disdains the Church and reluctantly meets his contact, Father Carius, in Carbo Village. Carius tasks Ryudo with safely escorting Elena, a songstress of Granas, to Garmia tower for a ceremony. Ryudo agrees and escorts the young woman to the ceremony, although openly disdainful of the task. However, the ceremony goes wrong and Ryudo enters the tower to find Elena possessed with devilish wings. The other participants are dead so he saves her alone and returns to Carbo, where the priest informs him that Elena has been possessed by the Wings of Valmar and must be taken to Pope Zera in St Heim Papal State at once. Ryudo is once again reluctant but, after the church is attacked in the night by a mysterious woman with wings who bests Ryudo with her magic, Ryudo is convinced to escort Elena.

''The story follows Ryudo and Elena as they travel, discovering the dark secret of the wings of Valmar that possess Elena in the form of Millenia and their ability to absorb other pieces of Valmar. It is up to Ryudo and his companions to stop the revival of the ancient god and prevent the foretold Day of Darkness."''

 * No one reads a massive plot summary like that without expecting spoilers. The purpose of a plot summary is to lay out the entire plot so that readers can either understand it better or refresh their memory on points that they've forgotten. What you have above is essentially what you'd expect to see on the back of the game box; I don't see how you expect that to even begin to fulfill the summary's purpose.Martin III (talk) 01:25, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
