Welp, I just finished the game after roughly 30 hours and what to say about it. One of the best RPGs available on the sony handheld. The game was originally released on the PC in 2004 with various rerelease during the following years, it finally got ported on the psp in 2006 and translated in english 5 years later.

Trails in the Sky is the first episode of a trilogy and the plot goes like this:

Spoiler:
The game takes place in Liberl Kingdom, 10 years after the great invasion of Erebonian Empire from the north. Currently it is being governed by the old queen Alicia II and restored back to its peaceful state before the war. Currently the kingdom thrives of materials and high technology which is eyed closely by the Erebonian Empire.

The main character is Estelle Bright, daughter of Cassius Bright who is a legend within the kingdom. During the great war, Erebonian managed to break their way through to the capital city. Here, under the direction and counter-attack planned by Cassius, Liberl launched a retaliation that forced the opponent to retreat back to the borders within a few weeks. After the war, Cassius gave up his sword and left the army, joining the Bracer's guild and enhancing it to its glory state and was given the S ranking.

Estelle is completely ignorant of her father's past and history but settles comfortably in the house at Rolant. When she was at a young age, her father was assaulted by a young child of amazing combat abilities but loses his memory in the fight and becomes adopted by Cassius. This child was named Joshua Bright and is the main male character of the story. From there Estelle was taught the usage of staff and starts off the story on the day when she is going to join the Bracer's guild with Joshua.


The story seems bland for like 50% of the game but it gets better as you progess and finally leaves you on a sick twist that leaves you begging for the sequel.

Anyways, I recommend it.
