= STORY MODE: =
== Prologue: ==
(Shows the book in one page a drawing of Krolk doing a pose similar to Conan the Barbarian, followed by his name below, and then in the other page, a series of texts will show up with the following prologue here.)
Since the beginning of times, mankind started their path without a proper home. They travelled from place to place to establish refugees until they find their perfect place to live. These persons are called nomads.
One of these nomads is an orphan named Krolk, a skilled swordsman and traveller on his own, he earned the nickname of "The Lone Wolf of Wales" by his people. He was found by a tribe of nomads back when he was just a baby.
Born in the Welsh region, he has no memory of who were his parents and who he was before. Having a penchant for fighting, he decides to travel around the world with the motive of seeking challenge against the best warriors, and to seek clues regarding his past.
== Stage 4 Interlude - VS. Rudolph Barrett ==
=== Pre-Fight Cutscene: ===
(Scene takes place in Caerphilly Castle. Rudolph is seen training with his sword to a wood dummy. A Shining Knight approaches him to talk.)
Shining Knight: "Rudolph, someone is visiting!"
Rudolph: "Let this person pass! I know him."
Shining Knight: "Understand, sir!"
(The Shining Knights open the door as we see Krolk entering to scene.)
Krolk: "Rudolph Barrett, my old friend."
Rudolph: "Krolk! What a great surprise!"
Krolk: "Training as always, I see."
Rudolph: "What's the reason for your visit?"
Krolk: "Let me see if you have the skills necessary for a warrior."
Rudolph: "But not before... an oath."
(Both Krolk and Rudolph grab their swords before they make contact to each other in X shape.)
Rudolph and Krolk: "By the powers that be, bless us during this duel."
(The swords are separated from each other.)
Rudolph and Krolk: Now, let the duel begin!"
(Both are now in their fighting stances.)
=== After Match Cutscene: ===
(Rudolph gets up easily.)
Rudolph: "Good match, Krolk!"
Krolk: "Thank you... that was a great experience."
Rudolph: "I inherited your late father's skills!"
Krolk: "What about your mother? Is she alive?"
Rudolph: "As a matter of fact, my mother is still alive."
Krolk: "Good for you!" *gets worried*
Rudolph: "What's wrong?"
Krolk: "I don't have any memory of my parents. Somehow, I felt that I'm a bit... empty."
Rudolph: "Don't worry, friend."
Krolk: "Ever heard of Deathopia?"
Rudolph: "Yes. That place is filled with despair everywhere."
Krolk: "I have to go there to search for clues about my very existence."
(The Shining Knights open the door of the castle as Krolk starts to walk out.)
Rudolph: "How long you will take the journey?"
Krolk: "I don't know... I just hope I'll finish it as soon as possible."
(Krolk leaves the scene by walking. The camera focuses on Rudolph as he watches how his friend leaves.)
== Fated Battle - VS. Mirina ==
=== Pre-Fight Cutscene: ===
(Scene takes place outside of Deathstructor's Castle, where we see dark brown mountains, a couple of bones and dark gray clouds that cover the entire sky, followed by lightning coming from said clouds.)
Krolk: "I need answers about my past... and this place is what I am looking for."
(Just when Krolk almost steps the bridge, flowers start to appear below him.)
????: "Hold it there, stranger!"
(A vine liana shows up, with Mirina holding it before she lands to scene in front of Krolk, which turns around.)
Krolk: "Do you have any business here, woman?"
Mirina: "I am Mirina of the Tupi tribe... and I expect a challenge from you!"
Krolk: "I'm almost closer to my destination!" *thinks for a while* "But a little challenge doesn't hurt."
Mirina: "You bet that, handsome one?"
(Krolk challenges Mirina and goes to his fighting stance.)
Krolk: "If I win... my pass to Deathopia will be completed."
Mirina: "But there's a surprise for you if you defeat me... will you accept?"
(Mirina accepts his challenge and goes to her fighting stance.)
== After Match Cutscene: ==
(Mirina starts to get up.)
Mirina: "Not bad... for a barbarian."
Krolk: "Thank you, lady. You are not bad at all either."
(Mirina then proposes to Krolk.)
Mirina: "But since you defeated me in combat... I want you to hold my hand in marriage."
Krolk: "What? We just met a few minutes and you are already proposing me?"
Mirina: "It's a tradition that if a foreign man defeats an amazon like me in combat, she has no choice than to marry him."
Krolk: *blushes* "However... I'm starting to like you."
(Mirina goes closer to Krolk and kisses him in the cheek.)
Mirina: "I'm glad you accepted my proposal, brave warrior."
Krolk: "My identity quest continues in Deathopia... I'll be back."
(Krolk runs towards Deathstructor's castle.)
== Sub-Boss Cutscene: ==
(We cut to Deathstructor's lair as we hear his laugh as he sees Krolk through a crystal ball.)
Deathstructor: "So you have decided to fight me... However, this isn't going to happen soon."
(Deathstructor's skeletal right hand glows to the crystal ball. We cut to the castle with Krolk walking towards, as a black energy teleports him to a platform in a cave with lava surrounding it.)
Krolk: "What's that strange place?"
(We hear an animal growl for a while. Then, an hybrid creature starts to land the ground with a huge shockwave.)
Mantigore: "Nobody's going to step Deathopia, mortal!"
(Wolfstone is summoned and growls to Mantigore.)
Krolk: "Mantigore? Wolfstone knew well about you!"
Mantigore: "I am superior than your pet, stranger without memory!"
Krolk: "What happened to your loyalty to mankind?"
(Wolfstone dissapears as Mantigore screams in front of Krolk. The latter is now in his combat stance afterwards.)
Mantigore: "For your information, humans are not even loyal to each other!"
Krolk: "My instinct says I must open your eyes to truth!"
== Final Boss Cutscene: ==
(Mantigore gets up easily.)
Mantigore: "I see you're searching for clues about your past, Krolk."
Krolk: "That's why I'm planning to go to Deathopia!"
Mantigore: "My time here is over... go to his throne room as I'm going to rest myself peacefully at my homeland."
(Mantigore's eyes start to close as his ethereal body starts to disappear in front of him.)
Krolk: "You will be remembered by my people as a guardian."
(We cut to Deathstructor's lair, as he gets angry for Mantigore's vanishing, seeing through a crystal ball.)
Deathstructor: "Not him! A simpleton of a barbaran managed to defeat Mantigore..." *he cracks his bone knuckles* "However, it's time for him to reveal the truth of his very existence."
(Deathstructor's skeletal right hand glows to the crystal ball. We cut back to the cave as Krolk is feeling a strange sensation.)
Krolk: "It is true? Am I going to the throne as he indicated?"
(Dark energies causes Krolk to be teleported to Deathstructor's throne room, a place located in the top of the castle, decorated in dark fantasy architecture. Deathstructor is seen sitting in his black throne.)
Deathstructor: "The Lone Wolf of Wales... I heard legends of you."
Krolk: "That's what my people called me, believe it or not."
Deathstructor: "Anyways, I am called the future harbinger of apocalypse, Deathstructor."
Krolk: *appoints with his sword* "I came here to eradicate your evil ways!"
Deathstructor: "Wait a minute... let's not skip to that part already. Do you want to tell the true purpose of how you become the very barbarian you are now?"
Krolk: "Tell it now, vile inhuman!"
(We cut to a flashback years ago, with the King and Queen of Wales carrying a baby Krolk in the throne.)
Deathstructor (v/o): "Your real name is Brynmor Blevins, Prince of Wales. You were born from a royal family, like most of the rich people."
Krolk (v/o): "And what happened at the time I was there?"
(We show how the Deathopians are arriving to the castle, raiding the place at once. The Welsh King ordered his wife to hid their son and then prepares to fight alongside with his soldiers against Deathstructor and the Deathopian undead army. The Deathopians kill the soldiers in gruesome ways.)
Deathstructor (v/o): "I took the lives of your parents... and those of his soldiers."
(During the flashback, we see how Deathstructor kills Krolk's father effortessly with his scythe, and then throws it to Krolk's mother, impaling her in the back to the point of her death. The baby then falls out from the castle, but fortunately, he survived.)
Krolk (v/o): "You caused their deaths? What's the point of this?"
(We cut to another flashback in a river where we see a group of nomads see baby Krolk and then carry him.)
Deathstructor (v/o): "Yes, I did, orphaned heir of a forgotten royal family! But somehow, you survived the massacre and you were raised by the very rejects from the society... or am I wrong?"
Krolk (v/o): "They actually taught me how to survive in the harshest of the enviroments. Once I grew up and gave me the name of Krolk, I travelled around the world..."
(We cut back to Krolk and Deathstructor.)
Krolk: "And here I am, in the very place where your eradication will be."
Deathstructor: "I wished you were never born in first place."
Krolk: "You speak ill of my true heritage? Not in a million of years!"
(Deathstructor unearths his scythe, Black Cleaver, out of the ground and grabs it as he starts to walk outside of his throne to the square one in front of Krolk.)
Deathstructor: "What do you expect from a barbarian like you? Absolutely nothing!"
Krolk: "With the sword I'm holding, your very evil will be eradicated!"
Deathstructor: "You will become nothing but a man shrouded in myth the day I'll kill you!"
(Krolk is now assuming in his combat stance.)
== Ending cutscene: ==
(Deathstructor is defeated, however he gets up easily.)
Deathstructor: "If only I killed you, the bloodline will be erased."
Krolk: "My path is already decided by fate! You can't deny it!"
Deathstructor: "No, you don't understand, barbarian!"
(Deathstructor runs towards Krolk and attempts to attack him, but is countered by his barbarian sword, impaling the skeletal ruler in the chest for five seconds and then pulls off. Deathstructor starts to feel that his ironic death is starting now.)
Deathstructor: "How do your deceased parents will react to that?"
Krolk: "That taken path of mine, I didn't left it all along... I'm really the next in the line! You on the other hand... will no longer exist to tell it."
(Krolk leaves the castle as the components of it are starting to fall while energy waves are starting to surround Deathstructor.)
Deathstructor: "You and your legacy will be destroyed, Krolk!"
(The waves cause Deathstructor to explode into bones. We cut to Krolk leaving the castle and summons Wolfstone and mounts on him as the Deathopian castle is falling into pieces. We cut later Welsh Mountains as Krolk stands firmly.)
Krolk (v/o): "The world is ever changing... sometimes bad things happen, sometimes good. I finally learned who I was, a heir that never got crowned, and I'm learning on who I really am, the next in the line of a royal family that I never met."
(We hear a familiar voice.)
????: "Liking these beautiful mountains, I see."
(It's then when we show Rohan, a scottish highlander, arriving to scene.)
Rohan (voiced by Liam O' Brien): "So, you must be Krolk, right?"
Krolk: "That's what everyone told about me... You must be Rohan."
Rohan: "The same... I realized recently that you are the child of an extinct royal family."
Krolk: "Deathstructor killed all of them, including my own parents, and I restored their honor by eradicating him. I wished they are still alive to show my accomplishments."
Rohan: "Sorry for the tragedy, man."
Krolk: "So, how's life besides swordfighting?"
Rohan: "Fine! Learned how to make swords from my father and helped a few warriors from around the world to stop Lucifer."
Krolk: "Glad to hear about your exploits, highlander!"
Rohan: "Also, you notice that I have a girlfriend, Fiona."
(Rohan's commentary has Krolk suddenly reminding him of a certain promise.)
Krolk: "The wedding... I must go to Brazilia!"
Rohan: "So, who's the fortunate woman?"
Krolk: "A certain amazonian I met in the journey, only because I defeated her in combat."
Rohan: "Strange, is it?"
Krolk: "It's a long story... see you soon!"
Rohan: "Back at you, brave warrior!"
(Krolk leaves the Welsh Mountains by running. We cut to Brazilia as Krolk and Mirina are now in a ceremonial marriage, assisted by many of the BeastKnights [Rudolph, Xochitl, Alejandro, Ignatius, Gunnar, Gretchen, Tifa, Haruto, Jean, Lang, Red Axe, Paulo, Ousmane, Assad, Roderick, Yuka, Lena and Luther], with Iron Crusher, of all people, as the priest.)
Iron Crusher: "BY THE AUTHORITY VESTED IN ME, AND IN THE NAME OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU HUSBAND AND WIFE. YOU MAY KISS THE BRIDE."
(Krolk and Mirina kiss each other as the assistants cheer for the moment. We see how Mirina generates flowers from her hands before she throws them in the air, with Tifa, Yuka, Lena and even Xochitl fighting each other to grab said flowers, until Gretchen appears out of sudden and gets them. Then, Gretchen hugs Rudoplh as they congratulate the newlyweds. Later, we see Krolk, now wearing a royal outfit consisting of a black and grey coat with grey shirt and black pants, and Mirina, holding hands as they see the landscape of the town of Wales.)
Krolk: "Tell me, Mirina. What are we going to do soon?"
Mirina: "Settling down and forming a family? Perhaps... I got responsibilites already as the Queen of the Tupi Tribe."
Krolk: "As the new King of Wales, I'm continuing what my parents left behind! Trust me... the country will be prosperous."
(Krolk and Mirina kiss each other for a while before the camera focuses on the statues of the late King and Queen of Wales. After that, the screen fades black.)
(Avril Lavigne's "Keep Holding On" starts playing as the credits which background is accompanied of a papyrus with ink-stained reflections of the Animal Spirits while the credits are rolling.)
