Fresh off the boat from his latest adventure, Adol arrives at the port city of Xandria on the Afrocan continent. It isn't long before, in typical traveler's fashion, he's accosted by the city guard for being a foreigner. He's bailed by Captain Rizze who is quick to scold her subordinates and let Adol on his way.

In town, Adol learns of a hunt for the secrets of the fabled "Phantom CIty" sponsored by a rich merchant name Dorman. Adol's quickly approached by a man named Zwett, a scout on the look out for those who would very well fit the description Dorman is searching for. He recommends Adol drop by Dorman's mansion, and Adol, being the adventurer he is, does just that.

There, Dorman reveals that the search for the Phantom City is one to help prevent Xandria and its neighbors from being buried by the sands which have been encroaching upon them day by day. He explains that the secret to the Phantom City is not gold or material wealth, but the key to unlocking the art of alchemy and thus a way to stop the sands.

Upon accepting the mission at hand, Dorman shows Adol the Light Crystal, a main element of alchemy discovered by Stein three years ago in a cave near Foresta Village. The task at hand becomes to discover the whereabouts of the remaining crystals to reveal the Phantom City, and Adol heads to Foresta Village as a starting point for clues.
