Corona is practicing her Psynergy near a large rock when...
Garet: Corona! What are you doing here?
Corona: I'm training.
Garet: Don't you know there's a demon trapped inside that rock and you could have gotten it out!
Corona: Calm down!
Mya (arriving): Don't be hard on her. She didn't know.
Garet: Listen! She's our daughter and she's 12 years old. She must be old enough to know that!
Mya: Really? And what about you? What age were you when you set off on your adventure? Oh yes, 17!
Corona laughed. Her mother is now 19.
Garet (leaving): It's not funny!
Corona joins her mother.
Corona: Why is he so hard on me?
Mya: Well, let's just say you've grown up fast - a year every month - and that's his nature.
Corona: I don't like his nature!
Mya: But you probably inherited it, with his strength, power and hair.
Corona: It's true that my hair is auburn.
Mya: But you have my eyes.
Corona: That's true!
Mya: Well, we'd better go and talk to him. Otherwise he'll be angry for days!
They left and a violet glow began to shine in the rock. An evil laugh rang out.
Sheba wakes up. She goes to see Isaac.
Sheba: Isaac! We have to go to Hammet in Kalay!
Isaac: Hammet? Why?
Sheba: I don't know... I saw someone in a dream who asked me to go. And you have to come with your whole Party and Felix's Party too.
Ivan and Mya (arrive running): We had a strange dream! We have to go to Kalay!
Isaac: That confirms it. We're going.
They're all going to Kalay. Corona goes too. Once in the throne room...
Ivan: You asked for us?
Hammet : No, we didn't.
Sheba: Then who did we dream about?
Ivan: ...
Sheba: ?
Ivan: I... don't know.
??? It's me you've seen!
Corona: Who's "me"?
??? The Wind Sorcerer!
He appeared.
Garet: You're a demon!
W.S. (for Wind Sorcerer!): No, a Sorcerer and, thanks to the wonderful intervention of a young girl here, I'm finally free of this rock!
Garet: CO-RO-NA!
Corona: But I don't understand a thing! How could the Psynergies Fume and Flare (the only ones I master) have freed you?
W.S.: It's obvious, I used my powers and I used yours to increase their potency! And I was able to free myself!
Felix: You won't get far!
Jenna: We're going to sweep you away!
Mia: You'll never resist us!
The Wind Sorcerer laughed. He turns into a giant tornado!
W.S.: I'll have you know that I came from another world and was beaten there. I was put in the rock and sent here through the Stargate. Ha ha ha! Wind is my only weakness!
The tornado gains in power and Piers gets sucked into it!
W.S.: I'll take you all to my world... (Felix got sucked in.) and I'll take all your powers! (Isaac got sucked in.)
Hammet: You've got to do something!
Jenna: But what?
Mya: I know! Corona use... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
She got sucked in!
Corona: MOM!
Garet: MYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! NO I…!
He got sucked in too! That leaves Corona, Mia, Jenna, Sheba and Ivan!
Ivan: What did Mya wanted to tell you?
Mia: I know what she wants to tell you because she told me! You too, Jenna! You've got to use the P...!
The Wind Sorcerer didn't give her time to speak. He sucked her in and began to suck Jenna too.
Jenna (getting sucked in): PROTECTION! THE ONE MYA TAUGHT YOU IN TRAININGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
She's sucked in!
W.S.: Now it's down to you two!
Ivan starts to get sucked in, Sheba grabs his hand and tries to hold him back.
Sheba: Quick, do the Protection!
Corona focuses and a dome appears around her.
Corona: Quick, Sheba! Take my hand!
Sheba went to take her hand and the dome began to surround her too. It also surrounded Ivan since he was holding Sheba's hand. No matter how hard the Wind Sorcerer tried, he couldn't suck them in.
W.S.: Never mind. I've got the others anyway!
He laughed and disappeared.
Corona: NO! What are we going to do?
Hammet : You can go and stop him! You're an All Adept, aren't you?
Corona: No, I'll only have these powers if my Mother dies. All I have right now is my Father's power. I'm only a Fire Adept!
She began to cry.
Ivan: Don't cry. Have you forgotten what he said? "Wind is my only weakness!"
Sheba: We're Wind Adepts. We can beat him. All we have to do is take the Stargate.
Corona: In that case, go on!
Ivan: But don't you want to follow us?
Corona: No, I'm not much use to you. I'm just a beginner. My Psynergy isn't strong and I've never been in a fight. I'd just be holding you back.
Ivan: But...
Corona: Don't be insistent. Go and save them.
Ivan leaves with Sheba for a new adventure.
They take the Stargate and find themselves in a cave.
Sheba: Let's be on our guard. We don't know what the creatures of this world are like.
Ivan: ...
Sheba: Are you listening?
Ivan: Yes. I was just thinking... about Corona.
Sheba: If she didn't want to follow us, that's her choice.
Ivan: I know... but something tells me she might join us.
Two Zombies appeared!
Ivan: They're just zombies... SHINE PLASMA!
Sheba: TEMPEST!
Both zombies die! Our two Wind Adepts continue walking when they come across two different paths.
Sheba: They don't have to lead to the same place. They're opposite!
Ivan: Which one do we take?
Sheba: I'll take the left, you take the right.
Ivan: Do you think it's a good idea to split up?
Sheba: We'll make more ground. Besides, at the level we're at, there's not much that can kill us.
Ivan: You're right, let's split up.
They split up. Ivan was walking along when he came across a strange creature called Memory-Stole. "Strange name!" He swung his weapon at it and a shock spread through him. He falls unconscious. Sheba, for her part, also encounters this creature and also falls unconscious after hitting it.
Ivan wakes up in a bed. "Is this my house?" A dark-skinned little boy of around 9 years old arrives.
The little boy: Ah you're awake! Jessie was lucky to have found you alive!
Ivan stares at him.
Ivan: Are you my little brother?
Little boy: No, I'm Max! And I'm not your brother! What's your name?
Ivan: I... I don't know anymore.
Max: You don't know anymore? That's not normal!
Female voice: Unless he's touched a Memory-Stole. You know those monsters can erase memories.
A young girl enters the room. Her hair is black and her skin is hazelnut.
The girl: I'm Jessie, Max's older sister. I'm 14 years old. Are you sure you don't know your name or where you're from?
Ivan: I... I don't know. It's all a blur!
Max: One thing's for sure, you're not from our world. All the people here are dark-skinned and none of them have hair of that color. They're all black or brown.
Ivan (feeling disoriented): ...
Jessie: We're not going to force him. He's confused. Come on, let's let him rest.
Jessie and Max leave the room. Ivan falls asleep. He would so much like to find a memory! Then he began to see something. He saw himself flying away. He was being sucked into something. Then he saw a girl catch him. She tried to hold him back. One detail struck him: her hair and eyes were the same color as his. Then he saw another girl with hair the color of fire. She conjures up a kind of dome. Then he wakes up. "Who were those girls? I'm sure I know them. Yet..." A strange sensation comes over him.
Max: "I wonder where he came from... He needs his memory back!"
Ivan: Max?
No answer.
Jessie: "Poor thing. It's horrible to lose your memory!"
Ivan: Jessie? Is that you?
No answer.
Ivan: What's happening to me? Why am I hearing all these voices? WHY?
Jessie comes in running.
Jessie: Are you okay? I heard you shouting...
Ivan: I... I heard you talking. In my head.
Jessie: ?
Ivan: I had a dream too... I was sucked up by something, but a young girl caught me. She's like me, I knew her. Her hair and eyes are the same color as mine. Then I saw another girl. She had made a dome appear. And that was it.
Jessie: It's true that it's a strange dream... Are you sure you knew these girls?
Ivan: Sure.
Max (arriving): So you're an Adept.
Ivan: ?
Max: I listened to what you were saying and you said you heard my sister's voice in your head. You heard her thoughts!
Ivan: Her thoughts?
Max: So you're an Adept, like in the legend.
Jessie: Don't talk nonsense to him!
Ivan: What's an Adept?
Jessie (pushing Max out of the room and closing the door): It's nothing! Nothing at all!
Ivan: I have to know! I must! What if I really am one?
Jessie: But that's just a legend... they don't exist. Not in this world!
Ivan: Could you at least tell me about it? Please?
"He's so polite! Jessie thought. And so serene and determined... Come now. It won't do him any harm."
Jessie leaves and comes back with a book.
Jessie: It's written in this book.
Ivan (whose out-of-control mind searches Jessie's thoughts): But you can't read! It was given to you by an old beggar.
Jessie (who notices his eyes have gone glassy): Uh...
Ivan: He told you the story and you remembered it, without believing in it. Then you told your brother...
Jessie (who knows what he's doing but feels nothing): Stop it!
Ivan: ...in your own version. And you don't believe it. You don't want him to believe it!
Jessie: STOP!!!
Ivan stop.
Jessie: Don't read my... mind anymore. Do you understand!?
Ivan: I read your mind? But I didn't realize it!
Max comes in, slamming the door.
Max: I knew it! He's an Adept!
Meanwhile, Sheba wakes up in a tunnel. "Where am I? And who am I?" She also has amnesia.
Jessie sighed. She can't believe this young boy is an Adept.
Max: Come on, sis! He's read your mind, hasn't he? That proves it!
Jessie: ...
Max: He just has to learn to control it. Right, Yvan?
A gleam passes through Ivan's eyes.
Max: Oops, sorry. This is a friend I know named Yvan. (He notices the gleam in her eyes.) Y-van. Yvan?
Ivan: Yvan... no Ivan... I'm sure that's my name!
Jessie: You're really sure?
Ivan: Yes, that's my name... I found it! Thanks, Max.
Max: Oh, you're welcome. I'll have to thank Yvan. (Leaving.) YVAN!!!
Ivan and Jessie start laughing.
Ivan: I'm glad to know my name again, but... I still don't know the rest.
Jessie: Max must be right. First you have to control this power. Try to read my mind. To do that, according to the legend, you have to say Mind Read.
Ivan concentrates by saying Mind Read, but his mind, instead of focusing on Jessie's mind, goes blank. Completely empties.
Sheba: "Can anyone hear me?"
Ivan: ? "Yes, I can hear you. My name is Ivan and yours?"
Sheba: "I don't know who I am."
Ivan (thinking of the young girls he saw in his dream): "Tell me, what color is your hair?"
Sheba: "Yellow."
Ivan: "Me too! And what are you wearing?"
Sheba: "A feminine brown and white tunic with a purple cape and boots. Ah yes, I also have brown bracelets."
Ivan: "There's no doubt about it. You're the girl I saw in my dream! I'm sure I know you. We've got to meet!"
Sheba: "All right. I'm in a cave tunnel."
Jessie: ?
Ivan: Jessie, where did you find me?
Jessie: In a cave tunnel.
Ivan: We have to go there! One of the girls I saw in my dream is there. I was able to talk to her with Mind Read. I've got to see her!
Jessie: Well, follow me.
Ivan follows Jessie (Max joins them.) and she leads him to the tunnel. Seeing Sheba, his memory returns.
Ivan: Sheba!
Sheba: ?
Ivan: It's me, Ivan! You saved me from getting sucked into the whirlwind!
Max (softly to Jessie): His memory's back!
Ivan: Corona had made a protective dome, remember?
Sheba (thinking of the memory and the name): Ivan? Oh Ivan!
They're going to hug each other.
Sheba: My memory just came back. I remember you!
Ivan: My memory's back too. We lost it because of the Memorys-Stoles. We mustn't touch them again.
Sheba pulls away from Ivan and sees Max and his sister.
Ivan: This is Max and his sister Jessie. It's thanks to them that my memory has returned. And yours too.
Sheba: I'm grateful to you. Come on, Ivan, we've wasted a lot of time. We've got to complete our quest. That's why we're in this world.
Ivan: That's right. We have to stop the Wind Sorcerer.
Jessie: But he's also a legend!
Ivan: Legend or not, he's back. He's captured our friends. Other Adepts with powerful abilities. He wants to take their powers, and if he succeeds, he'll be invincible!
Jessie: Did you have any proof...?
???: Yes.
Corona is coming!
Ivan and Sheba: Corona!
Max: Jessie, that's the other girl Ivan had seen in his dreams when he was still suffering from amnesia.
Corona: Yes, that's me. (She notices Jessie and her brother.) Ah, guests! In that case, it's time for the ritual introductions. (From The Clan.) I'm Corona, Fire Adept, living in Vale and protected by the Spirit of Mars. Daughter of Garet, Fire Adept living in Vale, hero who saved our world, protected by the Spirit of Mars. Daughter of Mya, All Adept who possesses Alchemy, from The Clan, protected by the Four Spirits. In the name of the Four Spirits, I greet you!
"I'm nervous," thought Jessie, "I've never done introductions like this before!"
Ivan (who had read her mind): It's not complicated. Just name all your names, all your blood ties, all the feats accomplished or titles obtained by you or your parents, where they come from and whether they are protected by Spirits.
Jessie: I see... I'm Jessie, from the town of Kora. Daughter of Kody, mercenary, and Julia, waitress, living in Kora. Eldest of the family. I greet you...
Ivan: There, you add her titles.
Jessie: ...Corona, Fire Adept, living in Vale and protected by the Spirit of Mars.
Corona: Very good, you've done it! Your brother is left...
Max (who knew what to do (and better)): I'm Max, from the town of Kora. Son of mercenary Kody and waitress Julia, living in Kora. Youngest member of the family, Jessie's brother. I greet you Corona, daughter of Garet and Mya, Fire Adept, living in Vale and protected by the Spirit of Mars.
Ivan: It's a success!
Corona: And it was more complete. Well, now that the introductions have been made, let's get back to business. The reason I'm here is to help Ivan and Sheba beat the Wind Sorcerer.
Jessie: But I told you earlier he was just a legend and I wanted proof!
Yvan (who had followed his friend Max and heard everything): I know it exists! He's at the top of Death Mountain! To get there, you have to cross the Bottomless Swamps...
Sheba: We know where to go now! Let's go!
Our three Adepts were about to leave when Corona noticed that Yvan hadn't made the ritual introductions! After making them quickly, they set off for the Bottomless Swamp.
Ivan, Sheba and Corona, after walking for hours, find themselves in front of the Bottomless Swamp.
Ivan: Why do they call it that?
???: Because it's bottomless, stupid nut!
Ivan: Who said that!
???: ...
Ivan: GRRR!
Corona: Don't listen to him, Ivan. He just wants to make you angry.
???: That's right.
Ivan's double appears, followed by Sheba's and Corona's.
Ivan: You must be Dark Ivan.
Corona: And you're Dark Corona!
Sheba: Dark Sheba!
The three Darks: Yes, that's us!
Dark Corona: We were created by the W.S. to stop you.
Dark Sheba: He's not going to let you derail his plans!
Corona: Let's fight!
Ivan (on Dark Corona): SMOG!
Sheba (on Dark Ivan): BLITZ!
Corona (on Dark Sheba): FUME!
Dark Ivan: SHRINE PLASMA!
Dark Sheba: TEMPEST!
Dark Corona: FLARE!
Ivan (on his double): GUST!
Sheba (on Corona): BREATH!
Corona recovers all his HP!
Corona (still on Dark Sheba): FUME!
Two more turns and...
Ivan: THOR, COME TO MY HELP!
Sheba: COME TO MY HELP TOO, THOR!
All the Darks die.
Corona: We got them!
W.S. Voice coming from nowhere: I see you've won. This is the way to my castle...
A path appears. Ivan, Sheba and Corona take it.
Sheba: It's the Wind Sorcerer's castle!
Ivan: Let's go in!
They go inside, into the entrance hall. There, two Zombies appeared!
Corona: I'll take care of them! FLARE! FLARE!
Both Zombies die. Corona had no time to rest when two Phoenixes appeared!
Corona: We'll never have peace! FLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE!
Ivan: STORM RAY!
Sheba: SPARK PLASMA!
The two Phoenixes die in turn.
Ivan: Let's get out of here! I can feel them coming back!
They leave the entrance hall and go to the throne room. It was empty. Suddenly, a piercing scream is heard.
Corona: I recognize that voice, it's Piers! It came from that trapdoor.
Sheba: What trapdoor?
Corona: The one hidden behind the throne!
Sheba: Ah!
Ivan: Let's go!
They push open the trapdoor and see a staircase. Ivan descends, followed by Corona and Sheba. Reaching the bottom, our Adepts see a terrifying sight. Piers, strapped to an operating table, pale... pale as death.
W.S.: HA HA HA HA HA! Now I have all your powers!
??? : No. You haven't taken mine yet!
Corona: MOM!
W.S.: ?
Mya: Corona... Concentrate and repeat after me. Your Psynergy is my Psynergy, my Psynergy is your Psynergy. Let them be reversed and so be it!
W.S. (pulling out her power): NO!
Corona: Your Psynergy is my Psynergy, my Psynergy is your Psynergy. (A red light comes out of her.)
Sheba: Ivan, it's her Psynergy!
Corona: Let them be reversed and so be it!!!!
Her light took the place of Mya's and the Wind Sorcerer sucked it in, screaming an expletive. Mya's light takes Corona's place. It goes inside her.
Ivan: Corona...?
Corona: I feel... stronger, more powerful! I have the power of Mya! I've become an All Adept!
Sheba: Wonderful!
W.S.: You're all going to die! I have the Psynergies of all your friends. You don't stand a chance!
Corona: No!
Mya (weak): Co-ro-na…
Corona : We've got every chance there is! FIGHT ON, EVERYONE!
So they fight. The battle was fierce! The Wind Sorcerer was very powerful with the powers of the others, but Corona restored the balance on her side with the strength of her Mother. It's thanks to this balance that the Wind Sorcerer dies (and also thanks to Ivan and Sheba's powers!) After he's dead, all powers return to their owners.
Isaac: On behalf of all of us, thank you for saving us!
Garet: Corona, you've had a lot of guts to come all this way and... I thank you for it. Incidentally, I'm sorry for what I said at the very beginning. I got carried away.
Corona: It's nothing after all...
Corona and her Mother: ...it's in your nature!
Garet smiles. Corona remains astonished. Rare are the occasions when she's seen her Father smile, and especially smile like that.
Felix: Now that we're all safe, maybe we should go back to Vale.
Piers: He's right, you know.
Jenna: Yes, let's go back to Vale.
Mia: Let's go home!
They go home through the Stargate.
