Prelude 0-1

== Elenai ==
Takes place a month after the climax of Takeshi Shou's story. The scene opens on Jake who is alongside a team, revealing they are "cave diving" for an unknown artifact. The five of them: Xavier, Jake, Stephanie, and two others reach a large hole in the ground which is so deep they cannot see the bottom. The group sets up and begins descending the hole with ropes and climbing equipment. 
They find the artifact but are ambushed by Elenai and Typhallos. She kills one of the men and nearly kills Stephanie. Xavier retrieves the orb, and Typhallos attempts to stop him. The orb overpowers Typhallos and kills him. Xavier monologues a villainous monologue and leaves with teleportation. Typhallos's soul enters Jake's body and Elenai is taken aback. Her master once told her that upon his death he would pass his power onto her, but now he gives it to this random unconscious man.
=== June 29th ===
Jake wakes up and sees a campfire and his captor. He freaks out and tries to run by Elenai knocks him down and threatens his life. She calls him his prisoner. Elenai never reveals to Jake what they are doing or where they are going. He tries to question her about the strange energy that entered him but she ignores him.
Later in the day, while travelling, Jake jumps into a roaring river in an attempt to escape. He witnesses Elenai's power again as she teleports him out and nearly breaks his leg.
=== July 1st ===
The two have an apparent hostile relationship. They enter a city and Elenai struggles finding her way around. Jake reluctantly rolls his eyes and begins to help her. He doesn't know why he helps, but he notes to himself how pathetic she was at this moment. He leads her to a library and helps her navigate the bookshelves. They find a book about Hysterian's. An ancient group of elves banished into the Shadow Realm that track her natural dark energy powers. 
The library is attacked by shadow magic. Jake freaks out as he has never seen anything like this. The Hysterian's reveal themselves to Elenai and she flees out into the open streets. Her body begins to change with her hair becoming red and her skin as pale as snow. Her blindfold is pulled down over her eyes and she resonates with purple energy. Jake takes this opportunity to run away. After several hours the world warps around him and he is teleported to the feet of Elenai. A sense of depression sets in as he knows he cannot escape her.
July 2nd
They finally encounter Xavier. Elenai fights him to a standstill for several minutes. Elenai grabs Jake's hand and uses the hibernating power of Typhallos within him to defeat Xavier in a mighty blast of fire that burns out a mile of forest. While this happens, Jake has a vision within a fiery world where Typhallos talks to him. It is unclear what the muddied voice is saying and it only servers to make Jake more confused. Due to the fight, Elenai drops unconscious. Against his better judgment, Jake takes her safely to Halveloy.
Upon waking up Elenai immediately yells at Jake in anger back in their hotel room. They enter a fit of screaming against one another. Things become physical and Elenai drops atop Jake on the ground and stabs her sword through his shoulder. Moments later a knock is heard at the door. A man seeks to recruit for a guild. He witnesses first hand how crazy the two are and when he departs he is glad they didn't agree to his proposal.
Later in the day, after Elenai had left to find food in the city, Jake is left alone to sleep in the hotels bed. During a dream he is visited in the same fiery world where he witnesses a memory of Elenai's:
She acts sweet as a child as any little girl is. She is before her master Typhallos who is extremely harsh on her. Jake sees that this is what has caused her to be so hard. The dream ends after the epiphany and he goes to search for Elenai with his new perspective. He doesn't find her in the hotels restaurant, so he takes the time to eat. Afterward, he returns to the room and interrupts Elenai changing. He is embarrassed but she isn't. She asks him to help her put on the bandages to cover her breasts. Jake jumps at the opportunity. Within the hour they leave Halveloy to flee the Hysterian's that know where they are.
