However, the Empire follows them to the island as well, looking to recapture Lyria. They end up meeting Rackam, an odd helmsman working on an airship that has been broken for years. The trio look for a working airship and a pilot to steer it. Unfortunately, Katalina's poor piloting skills cause them to crash-land elsewhere in the Port Breeze Archipelago. With the Captain and Katalina's fates now tied to Lyria, the three of them decide to head to the island of Estalucia, both to escape from the Empire and possibly find clues about the Captain's estranged father. Lyria then uses her power to summon a giant monster called Proto-Bahamut, driving the Empire's forces away. However, the Captain suffers a mortal wound during the fight, forcing Lyria to merge her soul with them in order to bring them back from the brink of death. The Captain inadvertently comes to the rescue of a girl named Lyria and an Imperial Officer named Katalina as they try to escape from the Empire. The Captain (the player character, either Gran or Djeeta by default) and their winged companion Vyrn are relaxing in the town of Zinkenstill, when they spot an Erste Empire airship in the sky nearby. Voice actors provide voices for all of the characters in battle, and for much of the main and event story lines. It is recommended to use a superior element on battle (for example using water against fire) as some dungeon giving a penalty to the non-superior element. Characters, summons, and weapons are ranked (from best to worst) as SSR, SR, R, or N each is also of type wind, water, fire, earth, light, or darkness. The characters themselves are gained either via quests (the main story quests or special event quests) or by using in-game currency to receive random crystal fragments, which may contain special weapons that add specific characters to the party.

Characters gain levels and abilities by accruing experience by collecting certain materials, some character may earn an extra star (which is called 'FLB' or full limit break) summons and weapons equipped also confer characters with bonuses on attack power and HP.

The game also contains summons and a class system that alters the main character's move-set and growth. The game plays as a role-playing video game with turn-based battles.
