Albert (Event)/Lore

Official Profile

Background

Albert is the captain of the Knights of Levin, an order of warriors who harness the power of Levin's storms to defend their kingdom. Because of his incomparable skill with the sword, he was given the Skyblade, one of Levin's national treasures. He is an intensely strong warrior, but he lacks social awareness and can be surprisingly devious at times—the skintight, revealing female Levin Knight uniforms were his design, to the ire of his subordinates Mona and Mena.

Many years earlier, Albert was a close friend of a man named Yurius, another Levin noble and fellow knight. He was, in fact, the illegitimate son of the king; however, his scholarly pursuits lost him favor with the king, who preferred Albert's heroics. In fact, the king held Yurius in great contempt and found Yurius' attempts to advance Levin society to be far beneath Albert's achievements on the battlefield. To spite Yurius, the king rewarded Albert with the Skyblade when Yurius requested it and and another of Levin's national treasures, the Astral Void Lacrima, for his research... And then renamed the Knights of Levin to the Sky Knights, after Albert.

Albert attempted to mediate when things turned for the worse, but his loyalty to the throne compelled him to agree with the king. Although he tried checking in on Yurius to ensure things were alright, Yurius hid his bitterness away, so Albert never realized how his friend felt until it was too late. One day, sensing that something was amiss after Yurius went to visit the king, Albert barged into the throne room. There, he found a distorted Yurius carrying the Astral Void Lacrima, with the king accusing him of planning his murder and ordering Albert to execute him. To add to the confusion, two different versions of Yurius started speaking to him: one told him to destroy the Lacrima because the Primal Beast's power within it was amplifying his negative emotions, while the other told him that destroying the Lacrima would unleash its full power.

In the chaos and confusion, Albert chose to destroy the Lacrima—but tragically, he chose incorrectly. As the second Yurius warned him, the Primal Beast's power swelled. With this new surge of power, Yurius murdered the king as the Celestial Eye appeared over Levin and unleashed a powerful bolt of lightning and sent Saint Lethan Castle into ruins. With that, Yurius disappeared while the threat of the Celestial Eye loomed over Levin. With his king dead, his best friend now a murderer on the loose, and his kingdom in ruins, Albert took to the skies in search of Yurius while his adjutants, the Levin Sisters, kept watch over the kingdom and the Celestial Eye.

Skyblade's Secret[edit]

Albert parts with the crew for a while to investigate his thunder sword. Meanwhile the crew goes off to a glassware shop. The owner tries to extort money from the crew, but then Albert appears and scares him away.

---

The crew takes a job removing monsters on a treacherous mountain path.

They meet Albert along the way, and he assists them in hunting down the monsters.

Albert explains that his friend is possessed by the power of a strange primal beast, and he's scouring the skies in search of answers.

After hearing his story, Lyria reveals that she can sense primal beasts. Both she and the crew offer to aid Albert on his quest.

Albert not in crew

---

Albert is grateful and joins the crew to continue his search. A long time has passed since then.

Albert is a crew member

---

Albert continues his journey with the crew.

One day Albert finds his thunder sword quivering with a strange power.

He thinks the sword might be reacting to something and asks that they stop by a nearby town to search for clues.

Albert: Sorry, everyone. Would you mind if I go off on my own for a while?

Lyria: Sure! We have to do some shopping anyway, so that's fine with us!

Vyrn: Well... You do what you gotta do, but just be back by dinner, okay?

Albert: Hah. All right. Take care out there.

Lyria: Hehe. He sure left in a hurry.

Vyrn: We should head out too! Come on, (Captain)!

And so the crew heads out into the town and leaves Albert to his own devices.

Lyria: Wow... This place sure is bustling! There are so many people here!

Vyrn: Yeah! I heard this town is the biggest one around!

Lyria: Oh, really? I believe it!

Lyria: Hey, (Captain), do you want to go look at that glassware shop?

Vyrn: Ugh... You're gonna drag (Captain) over there? All right, we'll check it out for just a second!

When they arrive at the shop, they see all kinds of colorful teapots, urns, and other majestic wares.

Lyria: Wow! They're so beautiful!

Vyrn: All right, all right. Let's just have a look at the prices...

Lyria: Aaah! Who could afford that?

Vyrn: We'll have to come back after we save up some serious moolah!

Lyria: Agreed! Well, that was fun. We can go now, (Captain)!

But just as (Captain) and company step out the door, a shady-looking character eyes them and slyly walks closer.

He bumps into Lyria, and with an exaggerated fall, he drops his fine urn onto the sidewalk.

Shady Guy: Hey! Look what you did!

Lyria: Oh dear! I-I'm sorry!

Shady Guy: Tch... Your words ain't gonna bring back my wares, kid! You're gonna hafta do better than that!

Lyria: Um... So what do I do?

Shady Guy: Hah! You know what you gotta do! Pay up! Fork over the cash for this thing!

Vyrn: Okay, okay... You don't have to get so mad about it! We'll pay you for it already.

With a sinister smirk, the man scribbles a few figures down and presents the crew with an unreasonable sum.

Vyrn: What! You've gotta be kiddin' me! It couldn't have been this much!

Shady Guy: Hah hah hah... It was one-of-a-kind, you know. And it wasn't even the most expensive thing here.

Lyria: How are we going to pay for this? I couldn't save up this much money if I worked my whole life...

Shady Guy: Like I care! Now fork it over!

Vyrn: Any ideas, (Captain)? We're in big trouble here!

Just as things seem at their worst, a handsome young man appears on the scene.

Albert: Excuse me. You wouldn't happen to be causing trouble for these fine people here, would you?

Shady Guy: Huh? Who the hell are you? Get out!

Albert: These are my friends. Perhaps you all could explain what's going on here.

Lyria: Um... Well... I broke this urn, and...

Albert listens quietly as the crew retells the story.

Albert: Ah. Now I get it.

Shady Guy: Hehehe. I don't care who foots the bill as long as I get paid.

Albert: All right. Then I'll pay it.

Vyrn: Wait... You're not really gonna give him all that, are you?

Shady Guy: Heh. I like this guy. He actually gets it!

Albert: However... First I'm going to have to ask you a question.

Shady Guy: Huh? A question? Fine, whatever.

Albert raises his sword to the sky.

As he does, dark clouds suddenly begin to form where the sun had been shining brightly moments ago.

Shady Guy: Aaah! What's happening?

Albert: I forgot to mention this, but I can see right through any lie.

Albert: Go ahead, make up any story you want. The second you do, my lightning will strike and char you to a crisp.

Shady Guy: No way! Who... are you?

Albert: I am Albert. Some know me as the Thunderswift Lord.

Albert: Now, for my question... Is the price you told them the real price of that urn?

As Albert interrogates the man, the dark clouds above them churn menacingly, surging with lightning.

Albert charges his sword and points it directly at the man.

Shady Guy: Curse you... I'm not gonna forget this!

The man's face goes ghastly pale as he runs out of sight.

Albert: What a crook. We even said we'd pay for it if he told us the actual price.

Lyria: Oh dear... Thank you, Albert.

Vyrn: That was amazing! Lightning really does strike twice!

Albert: My powers are nothing worthy of praise.

The otherwise calm and collected Albert stands there with a pained expression on his face.

Albert: The Skyblade is a sacred sword known only to those in Levin.

Albert: But it wasn't exactly developed as a lie detector.

Vyrn: What? So then how did you get that kinda power?

Albert: When I received this sword, I made a choice.

Albert: But when I did, I didn't know the truth. I soon found that the choice I made was the wrong one. It's all part of the troubling past I have to live with.

Albert: And that's why... that's why I have to use this power to make it right.

Albert: I won't make the same mistake again.

Seeing the pained expression on his face, the crew can only listen in silence.

Albert: Heh. Sorry to bring up such a gloomy topic.

Vyrn: What? Why? We're friends! You've got nothin' to worry about!

Lyria: I, um... I was actually glad to hear more about you, Albert.

(Captain) tells Albert that he doesn't need to suffer his burden alone. The crew is here for him.

Albert: Haha... Thanks, everyone.

Albert smiles at their words, his heart warmed by their kindness.

This experience moves Albert and the crew to grow ever closer. From this day forward, their friendship is stronger than ever.

Reviving Levin[edit]

Albert, Mina, Mona, Mena, and the crew try to come up with ways to help the recovering Kingdom of Levin. They decide to start by eliminating the monsters around Saint Lethan Castle.

---

The troubles of the Kingdom of Levin have been resolved. But the kingdom is still far from its former glory.

With that in mind, Albert, Mina, Mona, Mena, and the crew hold a meeting to come up with a solution.

Albert: All right then... We all know the reason we're here today.

Albert: We still have a lot of problems to deal with in Levin. But I know we can tackle each one if we work together.

Albert: And that's why... I'd like to get your thoughts on what we can do to revive our kingdom.

Hearing Albert's question, everyone begins to deliberate.

Mina: How about we do something to remind our citizens of the bravery of the Sky Knights?

Albert: Hmm... Indeed, the people have been pretty concerned ever since our last battle.

Albert: That's a good idea. We should give it a shot. But first we need to flesh out the details...

Mona: Why don't we go after the monsters around Lethan Castle?

Mona: We could patrol the castle town and keep the peace.

Mena: There are still some stragglers around there, so that sounds perfect!

Albert: And by eliminating a threat to the people, we can help alleviate their worries. Makes sense to me.

Albert: All right then. Time to get this plan into action.

Albert: Sorry to be a bother, but would you and the crew mind lending us a hand, (Captain)?

Vyrn: Hehe, sure! No sweat!

Lyria: Yeah! We'll help any way we can!

Albert: Then it's settled! Let's get rid of those monsters around Saint Lethan Castle!

(Captain) and company raise their weapons in response to Albert's call.

They soon depart for Saint Lethan Castle, where they will eliminate the monsters roaming the grounds.

Reviving Levin: Scene 2[edit]

After clearing out the monsters around Saint Lethan Castle, (Captain) and company patrol the nearby castle town. To further revive Levin, they prepare to leverage its proud local specialties: spa treatment, grape liqueur, and lightning.

---

After clearing out the monsters around Saint Lethan Castle, (Captain) and company patrol the nearby castle town.

With their initial objectives complete, they go back to the meeting room to discuss their next course of action.

Albert: Mina, Mona, Mena. Good work on those monsters.

Mina: You humble us, sir!

Mona: I'm so happy for you, Mina. All your hard work in the Sky Knights is finally paying off.

Mena: Yay, Mina! Thrashing all those monsters was worth it after all!

Mina: Quiet down, you two!

Albert: Heh... You three haven't changed a bit.

Albert: I'm also grateful for all the help you and the crew provided, (Captain).

Vyrn: Haha! Go on! Tell us more!

Lyria: Hehe. We're just glad to be of service! Isn't that right, (Captain)?

Albert: Thank you.

Albert: But it looks like this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Albert: We still have a lot of work left to revive our country.

Albert: I want to do something to bring back the energy that used to fill these streets. Does anyone have any ideas?

The crew throws out a handful of ideas to invigorate the kingdom.

After going over all the ideas, they narrow them down to the top three.

Albert: Levin has always prided itself on its local specialties. And they are...

Mina: A unique type of grape liqueur.

Mona: Spa treatment in the hot-spring district.

Mena: And don't forget the lightning! We've got lightning year-round, and other places can barely hold a candle to that!

Albert: I see. We should leverage these three things to help put the kingdom back on its feet.

Albert: First, Mina and the crew, you'll help me take care of those monsters in the hot-spring district.

Mina: Yes, sir!

Vyrn: We've got this! (Captain)'s ready and rarin' to go!

Lyria: And I sure want to go to one of those hot springs...

Albert: Mona, you go to the distillery and ask them to pitch in.

Mona: I'm on it! I know someone who works there too!

Albert: Mena, can you think of something special to do with lightning?

Mena: Yeah, you betcha! Coming up with good ideas is my specialty!

Albert: Good, then it's settled. I'm counting on each and every one of you!

And with that, each person splits off to go fulfill their part of the plan.

Albert, Mina, and (Captain) head out to the hot-spring district to start clearing out monsters.

Reviving Levin: Scene 3[edit]

The crew gets rid of the monsters in the hot-spring district of Levin, and it soon brims with activity again. (Captain) and company later return as guests to find Mina and her sisters selling grape liqueur and Albert offering Levin's new Thunderswift Jacuzzi.

---

(Captain) and company go to work and get rid of all remaining monsters in the hot-spring district.

Some time later the crew returns to the area to find it brimming with activity.

Albert invites them to come to the hot springs, this time as guests.

Lyria: Umm... I think this is the right one...

Vyrn: Wait, isn't it that one?

Vyrn points to the distance, where the three sisters Mina, Mona, and Mena are standing and selling the local drink.

Mina: Step on up and get one of Levin's finest beverages! Grape liqueur, anyone?

Mona: Mina, bring us more of that stuff!

Mena: Hmm? Hey, it's (Captain) and the gang!

Vyrn: Wow! Look at you guys!

Lyria: You've got all kinds of customers flocking to you!

Mena: Hehe! Betcha didn't see that comin', did ya?

Lyria: Wait, but where's Albert?

Mina: Albert is over there on important business!

Mona: Feel free to stop by and see him!

The two girls point the crew toward Albert, who is solemnly gripping his lightning sword.

Albert: Haaa!

With a fierce look, Albert thrusts the sword into the water before him.

A smile quickly spreads across the face of a customer sitting in the water.

Vyrn: What the? What is he doing?

Mina: Albert... put forth his greatest efforts to—

Mona: He made Levin's new Thunderswift Jacuzzi!

Mena: Hehe! And I came up with the idea! Whaddya think? Pretty great, huh?

Lyria: Oh... Um, yes...

Albert sees the crew approach and flashes a smile, inviting them over to take a look.

Albert: (Captain), Vyrn, Lyria! Thanks for stopping by!

Albert: Come on over and try our new Thunderswift Jacuzzi!

Albert: Hmm? Why do you all look so puzzled? Get over here already!

Vyrn: Uh... What do we do here, guys?

Lyria: Well... He did invite us with a smile. We can't exactly turn him down, can we?

Reluctant but willing, the crew starts to scoot toward Albert.

Albert: Hah hah hah. I wanted to let you know I appreciate everything you've done for us.

Albert: So today... You all get the Albert Special! On the house!

Though Albert had caught them off guard with his initially solemn expression, they shrug it off and go to enjoy the new experience.
