senshi wa ken o te ni tori, mune ni hitotsu no ishi o idaku
kieyuku kioku o sono ken ni kizami
kitaeta waza o ishi ni takusu
monogatari wa ken yori katarare ishi ni tsugareru
ima, sono monogatari o katarou...

The warrior takes sword in hand and embraces a single stone within his heart.
He engraves disappearing memories into that sword;
he entrusts the skills he learns to the stone.
Stories are repeated more than swords and are succeeded by the stone.
Now, let us tell that story...

sore wa IVARIISU to yobareru sekai no monogatari.

It is the story of a world called Ivalice.

BARENTIA-dairiku o shihai suru kyoudai na
gunji kokka de aru ARUKEIDIA-teikoku wa,
OODARIA-dairiku o shihai suru ROZARIA-teikoku to
chounen ni watatte sensou o tsuzukete ita.

Arcadia Empire, a powerful militaristic nation that
controls the Valentia continent,
and Rosaria Empire, which controls the Ordalia continent,
have been warring for countless years.

sonna naka, ARUKEIDIA-teikoku wa ryoudairiku to no kairou ni ichi suru
chiseigakuteki ni kiwamete juuyou na shoukoku, DARUMASUKA-oukoku ni shinkou suru.

During that time, Arcadia Empire invaded the small nation located between the two continents
whose position was a strategic key--Dalmaska Kingdom.

ARUKEIDIA-teikoku no shinryaku ni kutsu shita DARUMASUKA-oukoku no
seitou na oui keishousha AASHE wa
teikoku ni teikou undou o tsuzukeru REJISUTANSU (kaihougun) ni sanka suru.

Ashe, the legitimate heir to the throne of Dalmaska
which had succumbed to Arcadian aggression,
was a member of the Resistance, a group of freedom fighters who fought back against the empire.

sokoku kaihou o mune ni tatakau kanojo ni teki no tsuigeki wa hageshiku,
shikashi, kujikeru koto mo dekinakatta.
sonna toki, hitori no shounen VAN to deau.
kare to no deai de, shidai ni AASHE no kokoro ni wa henka ga umarehajimeta.

She wished to free her homeland and her pursuit of the enemy was fierce,
yet she could not break through.
At that time, she met a young man named Vaan.
With their meeting, Ashe's heart slowly began to change.

soshite...

And then...

futari no deai ga kono sekai no monogatari o ookiku kaete yuku.

Their meeting will greatly transform the story of this world.
