This is Asperia a beautiful place, known for its breathtaking scenery gorgeous mountains, bustling villages, and secrets around every corner. In a forest, Jaiden plays with Ari and Tofu, her loyal bird companions. She lies down, happily enjoying the sunlight as Ari runs around disturbing the wildlife, and Tofu eats dirt. Jaiden is the Region's very own wildlife biologist, she documents every new animal she encounters in her ecological guidebook, hoping to one day discover every mysterious creature Asperia has to offer Ari and Tofu help in their ways, I suppose, as she's writing down this interaction in her book for scientific purposes of course a flock of fruit does flies by overhead Jaiden immediately recognizes them from their bright white feathers and loud screeches very obnoxious ear-piercing screeches. Oh, how sure is a blessing sometimes just as they pass over one of the birdcalls spooks Ari, who is too distracted with bullying the rat in a burst of panic from the sudden shrieks Ari takes off and starts flying away in a fit of confusion Ari, "Ari stop, hey come on, dude you're being dramatic!" Jaiden calls out to her bird but he's already too far away even if he could hear her he's way too stubborn to listen anyway well this is just great after hours of searching for Ari and random bushes trees caves. Jaiden finally admits defeat and starts heading to the nearby town of Holl Stone for extra help in finding her bird. Luckily she immediately spots a noble holl Stone Soldier. "Perfect, I'll just go up to the guard and simply ask him if he can help me find Ari." "I need your help it's an emergency, we need to alert town Ari the bird is missing he's going to die out there if he doesn't eat his daily five-course meal. you got to help me, man, please help me find Ari."
