The Legend of Heroes: Kuro no Kiseki (英雄伝説
Synopsis
Setting
The game marks the second half of the Trails series, set in Calvard. The story is set in S.1208, a year after Hajimari no Kiseki. Thanks to postwar reparations, the multinational state of Calvard experiences unprecedented economic growth while continuously dealing with public unrest caused by immigration and the new president's radical reforms. In a corner of Edith, a young man working as a Spriggan receives a peculiar job that will result into something larger, affecting the entirety of the Republic.
Prologue
“Spriggan” - A type of underground business born from the diversity that is the Calvard Republic. At times as a detective, at times as a negotiator, at other times as a bounty hunter, they accept all types of requests from anyone. Subcontract work from the police on request that they can’t handle, consultations about things “can’t see the light of day” from civilians, even “legitimate” requests from criminals and underground groups. That is the way of those that are called the “Spriggan”. The year is 1208 of the Septian Calendar. In the slums of the capital city of Calvard, in a rundown old building, a refined looking girl wearing the uniform of renowned school was paying visit. “Arkride Resolution Office” She stared dignified at the simple letters on the plate. She swallowed audibly and knocked on the door three times ... “(YAAAWN), a visitor before lunch... that’s unusual...” At a glance, lazy but composed, seemingly mature but rather quite the young man’s voice rang out and the doorknob turned slowly. -Here is the beginning of a new “Trails (story)”.
