Marvelous Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma [NSW] (D)

The Celestial Disintegration - a calamity that befell the eastern lands of Azuma when a massive object fell from the sky. The devastating impact sent fragments of the ground into the air and sea. When the earth shattered, the power generated by the runes ceased to flow. Soon afterwards, the deities of nature also disappeared. Mountains collapsed and fields withered and the people had nothing left ... not even hope.

A dream of fighting dragons tears you from your sleep. You don't know how or why, but a voice echoes deep inside you.

Embrace the power of an earth dancer. Use that power to save the land.
