Storyline

Xion's time at the Institute of Pandemonium has helped him become one of the field's leading archaeologists. Despite his success, his inability to use magic has made it hard for him to be truly welcomed into Pandemonium's society of Devils. On top of that, memories of his father's disappearance continue to haunt him to this very day. When evidence of his father's survival finally surfaces, however, he pursues the truth through the word of the Institute's high chancellor—but will he really be able to find him? Will he accept the help of an old friend in his search, or will he brave this dangerous path on his own? Xion's destiny awaits in the wilds of Pandemonium.
