Smile Maple's Story!

I know that a lot of you think this game doesn't have much of a story. To be honest, I felt the same way for a long time. The story always seemed to be there just under the surface, but it just wasn't being revealed. The thing that sort of prevents the story from being cohesive is how long it takes to move from one part of the quest to another. Between level requirements and finding elusive items, it can take quite some time, so when you move on to the second part of your quest, you've already forgotten what the NPC told you when you started the quest.

But, after reviewing the data, talking to many NPCs around the world, but particularly in Victoria, and checking back on quests, I've been able to piece together the storyline to a decent extent. There's a good bit of story in Leafre and 4th job, so unfortunately that bit is just gonna have to wait until later. Magatia is another unavailable area that plays a big part in Ossyria's backstory. Still, there's some things, mostly surrounding the Guild Quest, that can be nailed down. I've written it up into an easily readable form (instead of trying to interpret the 20 or so quests involved). Keep in mind this isn't everything I know; it's only the first portion. Continue checking this first post for updates to the story as I find them and/or type them up.

So, without further ado, here's what I have written so far (Again, this is all from the game itself, NOT fanfiction. The basic story remains the same.)

Unhappy perfect greatmasterpiece

Perfect! Thank you for making this. =) Can I ask exactly How Perion turned into a wasteland after Sharen III took the Rubian, and why not all of Victoria?

I would think that the excavation was started recently, not 300 years ago... or so.
The barren wasteland must've been there, but when, in real time, Guild PQ was released, it must've been the start of the excavation.

Gobis at 110 are definitely not +% anymore. Especially when you don't give +% for Himes at the same level!
