Story

While she graduated from the magic academy in the capital city of Granseria, Romina enjoys a quiet but fulfilling life as a librarian employed by the Great Royal Library. When the building has to shut down for a few months for renovations, she's offered the option to work out of town to sort through an unknown book collection... Who knows, it may contain dangerous magic books, or god forbid, even a forbidden tome! She was about to turn it down when she realized the job will take her to Fulah, a small town in the mountains where she used to live with her family when she was just a kid. The work proceeds smoothly, until one day she actually stumbles upon a forbidden tome in the strange collection! Two creatures emerge from it, two beautiful women called Olipos and Zahal who claim to be daemons... But what are daemons? Are they related to devils, or maybe to elves? Romina has no time to even ask these question when the two steal all her magic powers and dare her to follow them if she wants it all back. Spurred by curiosity and duty both, Romina will embark on a grand adventure while slowly growing stronger again. Her travels will take her to hunt forbidden tomes, fight powerful foes, and discover ancient mysteries. What truth awaits at the end of it all? And why does she feel so compelled to see this mission through? The answer isn't inside a dusty book, Romina, but out there! Go get it!
