Summary for Seiken Densetsu: Legend of Mana – The Teardrop Crystal
Legend of Mana is set in the fictional world of Fa’Diel. The Mana Tree, which gives mana and life to the world, was almost burned to the ground nine centuries before the events of the game. A war broke out between fairies, humans, and others, demanding what little mana remained. When the war ended, the burnt mana tree slumbered while it regrown, and the many lands of the world were preserved in ancient artifacts. A hero controlled by the player is tasked with restoring the world and mana to its former state. The lands of Fa’Diel are populated by a wide variety of creatures, including humans, fairies, demons, the jewel-hearted Jumi race, Sproutlings and Flowerlings, mine bears known as Dudbears, and shadowy beings from the underworld known as Shadoles.
Fa’Diel is also home to a large number of animals and anthropomorphic objects, as well as monsters from other Mana titles such as Rabites, Chobin Hoods, and Goblins. The player controls the game’s protagonist, who is either a silent male or female protagonist. The character is unnamed and no information is given about his past; its story and personality must be determined by the player.
