[edit] Story

"Leave it to me."
—Layle

When the story begins, Layle is already a well-known hero. At some point before the main story's beginning, he acquires a Crystal and becomes a Crystal Bearer. As the game opens, Layle is on a boring escort mission, guarding an enormous new passenger airship on its maiden voyage. The airship is eventually attacked by an army of monsters led by a Yuke named Amidatelion.

[edit] Abilities

Layle using his power mid-air.

Layle has the ability to lift and toss enemies with a strange power. Besides lifting enemies, he is also able to lift objects and even people. He has the ability to battle in midair, as well. When he uses his powers, the crystal embedded in his cheek begins to glow.

It is said that along with his abilities, Layle will be able to use standard weapons. A weapon he is seen using is a large type of firearm when he is battling in the air.
