The game starts in the backwater village of Rasheans. It doesn't take long before something huge lands in the ground near there. Reid and Farah investigate the scene, and near the vessel is Meredy along with her pet, Quickie. They find out very quickly that there's a language barrier - Meredy speaks only Melnics, but Reid and Farah speak English. To find out about her, they all visit Keele Zeibel, an old friend of Reid and Farah.
Keele didn't understand much himself, but he did get one thing: Meredy was from Celestia, the other planet separated from his own by the Orbus Barrier. Meredy gets the point of her mission across as well, that Inferia and Celestia are going to collide - something Keele himself was researching before she arrived. To look into the matter further, the group decided to head to Morle, in order to visit an authority of the Melnics language.
Upon arriving, they acquire earrings which allow them to understand Meredy upon being on the same psychic waves. In other words, it doesn't work well at first. After being able to communicate with the group, Meredy explains yet again that she wishes to stop the Grand Fall, or the collision of the planets. In order to do this, she needs to make pacts with all the Greater Craymels.
