The title character, Eustia (everyone calls her Tia for short) was saved from having to work as a prostitute after Caim buys her. He appears cold and unrelenting, but, as many of the heroines and characters note, he is a kind person at heart. He buys Eustia from “The Noncorroding Gold Chains” after seeing her emit the characteristic purple light of the “Gran Forte” incident, believing she may hold the answers to the event that almost completely destroyed his life. Like many “Prison” residents, the incident proved traumatic for him, and he has forsaken much of what he had believed in during his harsh and relentless time as an assassin.
Originally a resident of the lower city, his life as he knew it completely changed when he lost his home and family as a child during the “Gran Forte”. The protagonist of the story and a freelance ex-assassin who has adapted to the harsh life in the “Prison”. As he searches for the meaning to his cruel, difficult life, he will discover the deepest and darkest secrets of Novus Aether… CharactersĪ huge part of any VN experience is the characters, so I’ll spend some time introducing the protagonist, the heroines, and some of the more important side characters. His encounter with Eustia will take him on a journey which will involve him with the most influential bodies of the city, including the Church and the royal government. During one request, Caim finds Eustia, a winged girl who emits the pale purple light characteristic of the “Gran Forte” incident years ago. In this “Prison” resides Caim Astraea, a freelance ex-assassin who does odd jobs for his friend, the head of “The Noncorroding Gold Chains”, for money. Meanwhile, a contagious disease which causes the infected to grow wings has spread throughout the city, and a unit commonly known as the “Wing Hunters” has been formed to deal with these people swiftly and often violently. Crime, famine, and disease run rampant, with “The Noncorroding Gold Chains”, the ruling organization in the area specializing in the sex trade, keeping what little order that still exists. In time, the lowest layer, known as the “Prison”, became the home to people who lost much of their former lives during the “Gran Forte”. Countless lives and property were lost or irreversibly affected in what would be known as the greatest disaster in the city’s history.
Years ago, when the Saint’s prayer was interrupted, an incident known as the “Gran Forte” occurred, causing a portion of the land to fall and split the lower city into two, separated by a cliff. (Description taken from the relevant entry and edited)Īfter the surface of the world succumbed to chaos centuries ago, the city of Novus Aether is kept afloat in the sky solely by the continual prayers offered by the Saint.
