Story

Trials of Mana

As told by the demoness Belladonna, His Dark Majesty was once the human prince of a kingdom adjacent to Laurent, whose remains include the Dark Castle. Based on a prophecy held in his kingdom, the boy was cast out of his human family due to the presence of a malevolent power within him. He was soon after imprisoned in the castle dungeon in order to prevent the prophecy from coming to pass, at which point the previous ruler of Mavolia took him in and reared him as their future ruler. Eventually granted Mavolian powers, he turned against his mentor and usurped the throne. He then turned his aggression on the mortals who rejected him. He took his own castle and reestablished it as a stronghold for his demon subjects, but humans slew him and reduced his defeated body to ash, whereupon his most loyal followers including Belladonna and the vampire Malocchio recovered the remains.

As the influence of mana begins to wane by the time of the story, Belladonna and Malocchio search for a way to revive their master with the power of the Tree of Mana, in order that he might rule over all realms.

In order to see his vision through, however, the Prince will need to transfer his essence into a new body; as with Thanatos before him, the quasi-immortal requires a new human body to serve as his host at regular intervals. Thus has he chosen Elliot, the child prince of Laurent for this purpose, sending his minions to kidnap the boy. They succeed during an orchestrated siege of the citadel by Nevarl Fortress, prompting Riesz, crown princess of Laurent and captain of the elite guard, to give chase. Meanwhile, Hawkeye, a Nevarlan thief in exile by the Prince's machinations, desperately searches for a means to undo a curse laid upon Jessica, his close friend.
