Tales of Vesperia ~The First Strike~

Ten years after the Great War against demon-beasts, the empire dominates the world, with its prosperity tied to the extensive use of aer. Yuri Lowell and Flynn Scifo, two young recruits in the prestigious Imperial Knights, are dispatched to the town of Ceazontania, where unusual aer activity has led to the emergence of grotesquely mutated beasts posing a serious threat to the region. Meanwhile, in the capital, Knights Supreme Commander Alexei Denoia and the naive Princess Estellise are embroiled in a power struggle behind the scenes. As the situation in Ceazontania worsens, the garrison of Imperial Knights realizes they cannot count on immediate support from the capital. In a surprising turn of events, Niren Fedrok, the commander of the Imperial Knights in Ceazontania, makes a decision that will alter Yuri and Flynn's fates forever. What secrets lie behind the extraordinary occurrences surrounding Yuri and Flynn? Will they be able to protect the innocent people of Ceazontania while staying true to their principles?
