Golden Sun: The Lost Age/Prologue

Ages ago, or so the stories
tell, the power of Alchemy
ruled over the world of
Weyard.

Alchemy wrought the base
elements of humanity
into thriving civilizations,
like lead into gold.

But in time, man's dreams
gave birth to untold strife.
Dreams of endless riches,
of eternal life, or dominion
over all that lived... Dreams
of conquest and war.

These dreams would have
torn the world apart if not
for a few brave and wise
men, who sealed away the
power of Alchemy deep in
Mt. Aleph's Sol Sanctum.

Prologue From Book One

The town of Vale Guarded
the secret for many years,
until Isaac and Jenna,
whose parents died in a
storm 3 years before,
disturbed the sanctum.

Saturos and Menardi, of the
Mars Clan, followed them
into the sanctum. With them
travelled Jenna's brother,
Felix, though lost in that
same tragic storm.

Saturos and Menardi stole
the Elemental Stars, the
keys to breaking the seal
on the power of Alchemy,
and kidnapped Jenna
and the scholar Kraden.

If these four jewels were
used to fire the elemental
lighthouses, the seal on
Alchemy would be broken.

Isaac and Garet set out
to stop Saturos, rescue
their friends, and return
the Elemental stars to
their home in Sol Sanctum.

They banded together with
a young Wind Adept named
Ivan and pursued Saturos
and Menardi to Imil, a
winter-locked town near
Mercury Lighthouse.

There, they met the guardian
of the lighthouse, a Water
Adept named Mia. With
her, they pursued Saturos
to the aerie high atop
Mercury Lighthouse.

Isaac was too late to
stop Saturos from lighting
the beacon and escaping.
Again Isaac chased him,
crossing Angara to the
shores of the Karagol Sea.

Taking passage on a troubled
ship, Isaac crossed
the Karagol to Tobli. He
spoke with Tobli's leader,
a strange man named Babi.

Babi entered Isaac in
Colosso as a test of his
powers. Isaac's Psynergy
won Colosso and earned him
Babi's trust. Babi revealed
a great secret to Isaac...

Thanks to a mystic draught
from the lost land of
Lemuria, Babi had lived
for 150 years! He offered
to help Isaac, who then
headed deep into Gondowan.

In the town of Lalivero,
Isaac learned that
Saturos and Menardi had
kidnapped a young girl
named Sheba, whom they
needed within the Lighthouse.

Isaac fought and defeated
them atop the lighthouse,
but he was too late - the
beacon had been lit.

A great cataclysm followed.
Sheba fell into the sea.
Felix jumped in to save her,
but both were lost in
the roiling waves. Jenna
left the lighthouse to find
them, but to no avail...

Isaac went to Lalivero,
where Babi asked him to find
Lemuria and the remaining
lighthouses. He gave Isaac
a Lemurian ship to make the
journey for the lost land.

The chater of our story
begins with Jenna, just
before the beacon on
Venus Lighthouse is lit...
