Synopsis

After reaching Earth and revealing what was happening on Thalos, you've been trained by Earth's Government to become a special agent. Your mission was originally to infiltrate Thalos and, backed up by regular troopers, restore democracy on the planet.

In the meantime, Thalos City fell, Fhenor was killed, and a new ruler, named Komen, established power. Komen found a deranged alchemist, who trained him to use the psychic powers known only to the alchemists. He then persecuted and killed all the alchemists he could find, so that they couldn't use their own psychic powers on him.

Komen then moved the capital to the fortified Komen City, which was, unsurprisingly, named after himself. If there's a way of counteracting Komen's new-found psychic powers, there's only one man who might know it: the Great Keeper of the Galactic Ways. He's an ancient alchemist now hidden in the radioactive part of the planet.

After arriving on Thalos and finding out about the changed circumstances, your mission is to find the Great Keeper, find out whether Komen can be defeated or not, and eventually head to the city and complete your mission.
