In forging the pact, Caim can control the dragon during flight and has access to the dragon's vast strength, but gives up his voice in exchange (although he's still capable of conversing with the dragon through telepathy). He proposes that in order to save them both, the two should form a pact. Caim is mortally wounded in the first stage as he runs towards Furiae's castle in the midst of a battle, and discovers a chained and wounded dragon in the courtyard.
One of the major concepts in Drakengard is that of a pact, or of two beings of different races binding their souls into one. Caim is joined initially on his quest by Inuart, his best friend and Furiae's betrothed before she became the Goddess, and four other characters, the circumstances of each being varied and always tragic. Also known as "the Goddess", Furiae is part of four seals that protect the world from an unknown danger-she is a living seal, and her death would herald chaos in the world. It takes place in a Heroic/ Low Fantasy medieval setting, and it follows Anti-Hero Caim on a mission to destroy an evil empire (aptly named "the Empire") while also protecting his sister Furiae. The gameplay switches between Hack and Slash and Flight Sim, so one could think of it as a mixture of Dynasty Warriors and a sandbox version of Panzer Dragoon. It's notable for its combination of a multilayered, surreal plot and excellent atmosphere, with rather weak, repetitive gameplay. The dragon plummets from the tower of red thunder, and where it falls no one has seen.ĭrakengard is the first game in Cavia's Drakengard series, released in 2003 on the PlayStation 2.
