Part 1 of 6
Aesperia is the starting continent. The player wakes up in Astra Shelter with no memory, saved by Shirli and Zeke. Early chapters are simple: deal with Ravager raids around the shelter, learn how Omnium Towers work, then travel to Banges, Navia (Cetus Island), Crown Mines and Warren to shut down the towers one by one.
The main plot reveals that Hykros is not honest about the towers or about its own projects. Project Angel of Clemency turns dying people into weaponized "Angels"; Dr. Claire's experiments and betrayal show how far Hykros will go; and Shirli ends up as Nemesis after her body fails. Zeke leaves to find a cure for his sister and becomes involved with the Heirs of Aida, whose leader is called the Sage. The Aesperia arc closes with the assault on the Heirs' base, a time-related incident the Wanderer barely survives, and Shirli's transformation — Zeke loses his sister to the project meant to save her.
Part 1 of 6
Aesperia adalah kontinen awal. Pemain terbangun di Astra Shelter tanpa ingatan, diselamatkan Shirli dan Zeke. Babak awalnya sederhana: menghadapi serbuan Ravager di sekitar shelter, belajar cara kerja Omnium Tower, lalu berkeliling ke Banges, Navia (Cetus Island), Crown Mines, dan Warren untuk mematikan tower satu per satu.
Plot utama membuktikan Hykros tidak jujur soal tower maupun proyek mereka sendiri. Project Angel of Clemency mengubah orang yang sekarat menjadi "Angel" bersenjata; eksperimen dan pengkhianatan Dr. Claire menunjukkan seberapa jauh Hykros akan melangkah; dan Shirli berakhir sebagai Nemesis setelah tubuhnya kolaps. Zeke pergi mencari obat untuk adiknya dan terlibat dengan Heirs of Aida yang dipimpin sosok bernama Sang Sage. Babak Aesperia ditutup oleh penyerbuan markas Heirs, insiden waktu yang nyaris menewaskan sang Wanderer, dan transformasi Shirli — Zeke kehilangan adiknya justru pada proyek yang katanya menyelamatkannya.
