Description:
Astrake Hedin and Udir Estner have a big dream of becoming knights at Cielcanto Castle, but while training, they're attacked by a powerful mage girl, Silvana. The two get stomped and when Astrake wakes up, he finds himself in Silvana's body. Now he has to work with Silvana's ghost friend, Kvena, to find real Silvana and get his body back.

0:00 Title Screen
You can choose to play episode 0, which gives some backstory to Astrake and Udir, or you can skip it.
1:18 Episode 0
Udir is new in the town of Vincent and wants to befriend the other kids. Unfortunately, they take advantage of his gullibility by telling him to find a big red flower in the forest. At the forest entrance, Udir runs into Astrake, who tags along with him out of worry.
Unfortunately, when the duo find the big red flower, it turns out to be a plant monster. You have to run through two maps without touching any enemies, or you have to start over. You also have to make sure to avoid rocks on the ground, or you'll stumble.
Near the entrance, the monsters catch up, but a Cielcanto knight saves the duo, albeit at the cost of his left eye. Udir and Astrake are in awe of the soldier's heroics and decide they want to enlist too.
16:02 Silva's Parents
We get a cutscene where Silva's parents encourage her to stay positive, despite the mom being ill and the dad suffering work injury. I think the dad might be the soldier who saved Udir and Astrake.
17:41 Vincent
Astrake and Udir are getting ready for the enlistment test for new Cielcanto recruits, but there's word that a mage girl destroyed Arkeld Village. Be sure to talk to Udir's mom.
Note that a lot of dialogue choices in this game are often followed by an internal negative one.
29:01 Forest Ambush
You'll have a short battle where Astrake trains with Udir, but it ends in a few turns, so just defend. While Astrake can use healing magic, Udir is better at swords.
Afterwards, a small girl attacks the party with magic. You can't win this fight either and the duo is knocked out.
35:11 Green Forest
Astrake wakes up in the deepest part of the forest, but he's in the body of the girl who attacked him. The ghost, Kvena, doesn't seem to know what's going on either, or why the girl, Silvana, destroyed her own home village.
While making your way out of the forest, you'll be introduced to additional combat mechanics, such as chain skills and Kvena's possession skill. The latter is a lifesaver because of the lack of healing options, and even then, Kvena is effectively invincible in this dungeon because she always dodges physical attacks.
Before the boss, you'll find a white monster who trades skill stones for EXP. If you're on an easier difficulty, you can also use the crystal to heal, though it seems like such a weird condition when you can change the difficulty at any time.
Note that you can farm SP by spamming the Safeguard skill on both characters, resulting in a chain skill. However, you'll be bottlenecked by EXP and skill stones more than SP in the long run.
55:40 Boss: Forest Bear (Hard)
The boss can easily knock out Astrake, but again, Kvena cannot be hit by any of its attacks. Just make sure you have Eincold and use your buffs so you fight efficiently.
57:36 Green Forest P2
At the forest entrance, the Cielcanto knights arrive to arrest Astrake, thinking that they're Silvana.
