For these reasons, it takes a while to get the ball rolling, but generally the story follows a people fleeing their dying home world. When all should have been safe, they found themselves attacked by the mysterious Sharl, an alien race that resembles different kinds of fairies.
A faction of the survivors split off, and began worshipping the Sharl. All is not as it seems, and as you infiltrate the opposing Sharl supporters, you discover that there might be deception on both sides.
Delta and Cass become unlikely partners. Think drift compatibility from Pacific Rim. The more the partners sync, the more embarrassing, awful, and unsightly parts of each other they see, so it ends up being a trust issue that is hard for many to get past.
The relationship between the singer heroine and the defender hero should be familiar to anyone who has played Ar Tonelico or any of the other Ar games. It should be mentioned that dialogue with anyone other than the main characters is a little pointless though.
Talking to people on the street NPCs has a long tradition in RPGs of yielding valuable information or interesting side stories. Unfortunately in this game, it seems that people often have split personalities, talking about one thing and then switching suddenly to completely different topics.
Following contact with a hostile life-form known as the Sharls , the people that lived in Orei , one of Soreil's areas, were abducted, as humankind was powerless against the Sharls due to them being able to use a power known as Song Magic.
Thousands of years later, the Felion Wall, a structure located in the depths of Orei opens, and from inside emerge the Ancients , people with the ability to use the same Song Magic the Sharls possess. The Divine Empress then opened the wall and let part of the people reside in the city of Felion, but this split off the people on Orei in two factions: one led by the Divine Empress and her PLASMA squad, which sought to exterminate the Sharls in order to bring peace to the people, and other one led by the Archbishop of the Genomirai Church, Zillillium Rimonite, who sought to have humans and Sharls coexisting in promise of achieving a enlightened life.
Initially, Cas and Delta are tasked to find out a song called Ciel N Protecta that their friend Sarly developed, but it was stolen and it supposedly has begun causing the machines in Felion to go haywire. During their searches for it, they are captured by the Genomirai Church led by Zill , and as they try to escape from them, they discover Zill is planning to set up and sing a very dangerous kind of Song Magic.
On the other hand, Ion is trapped in the sealed world through which the player interacted with her in Ciel nosurge , and having Earthes as her helper, she decides to escape from it. After escaping from the sealed world, they both reach the city of Tenryosara , where they meet with Tattoria and Kanon. And from there, both pairs continue their journey in search of the truth about this world.

The game's music is composed by Daisuke Achiwa and Kazuki Yanagawa , and it also features several pieces from Ar tonelico: Melody of Elemia that were originally composed by Ken Nakagawa.

Many years pass, and just as people had begun to start building cities and had gotten used to living on Soreil, mysterious beings known as Sharls begin to attack them.

All this publication's reviews Read full review. Game Over Online. Ar nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star is a fun Japanese RPG that goes outside the square in terms of its bizarre story and combat techniques. IGN Italia. Part visual novel, part JRPG, it's a bit more interactive than usual for the genre, but it still lacks any significant innovation. A gem only for Gust's franchise fans. It's technical characteristics are far away from what you would expect of PS3. However, the universe in which it's englobed will give the player quite some enjoyable moments.
