During the first world war, a mysterious portal appeared at the top of the mountain of Rondo. Monsters were crawled out of this portal and started attacking all the humans, from all nations.

Captain Yusef Athros, from the Sylon empire, has been exploring the Castian Sea, and has just received an order to head to Lavinan Island. What will captain Yusef find in this island?
