Adapted from the hit manga! Far from the dungeon beneath Oraria rises a new threat, one the beautiful goddess Artemis has sworn to destroy with the help of her chosen warrior.

Instead the fate of Artemis\u2019 quest falls upon the shoulders of Bell Cranell, who must partner with the goddess and stand against the menace lurking in the remains of a distant, ancient city. Although Bell is the ordained champion of Artemis and a member of the goddess Hestia\u2019s familia, their adventure will test every skill and take every ounce of courage that Bell has\u2014and perhaps, along the way, turn him into the hero he has always aspired to be.
