Synopsis

"The Fate of Cysalion" was staged and shown in cinemas. This was the recording of a stage show, which was extended by feature film sequences, accompanied with an additional film score and provided with CGI special effects. The musical was presented for the first time as a large screen experience, in a dynamically mastered version especially for the cinema.

The plot:

1898, Cysalion is at war again. The young Tayen Knightway is sent on a risky mission by the last living Vartori and reflects on groundbreaking events that came close to the end of a conflict that lasted for thousands of years in 1687.

At that time, the Xetars, a militant order led by the always masked Nuncio Drej, tried to sabotage the peace negotiations between King Melven of Galen and Emperor Arkon the Great. Melven has to compete with the superior Silmatey in the fight, while Arkon and his concubines only watch the spectacle in imperial amusement.

Meanwhile, the Boonlinge Tara Rivershine and Aneta Claywood travel to Enedion, the holy city of the gods. While you are still feeling the magic of the place, the two are separated from each other by an entanglement of events.

Tara is abducted by brutal Warrimon Mc Muscle to a curious carnival. There the life of the circus director Marron Stocio gets quite confused. In the circus not only meets a Silmatey, but has to face her own demons once again.

Aneta falls into the clutches of the unscrupulous pirate queen Tolshara and meets the captive king's son Decem von Galen in Wengord, the town of the outlaws, who has been her idol since his youth and who still has a score to settle with the Warrimon.

In search of her brother Decem, Galen's princess Jade von Galen finds the seriously wounded Vartori Caylen Stonegate, an old-time warrior, and takes him to Cleric Lathus in the temple town of Arcatis.

The events change as an archaic power strives to return to Cysalion and uses a bizarre helper named Dovaras in search of the Source Crystal.

One of the heroes is misguided by the power of evil and now Cysalion's fate hangs by a thread! An epochal catastrophe threatens. The only hope to avert this is the last Enaiy.

But since it is also the key to evil, a race against time begins in bizarre, remote and legendary places.

The search for her and the hunt for her have begun!
