The Goddess' Protection

If you asked a man who ventured into unknown territories and dangers how he survived, he'll probably say, "The Goddess protected me, of course!"

An old legend on Sol goes like this:

"If thou wish to cross the mountains,
the rivers, the plains, the deserts, and the sea,
The goddess will watch over thee.
For if you seek to find the Promised Land,
The Goddess will guide you with her hand."

Any adventurer can recite this by memory. They believe in it very strongly. After all, they haven't been maimed yet!...

Plot Synopsis

So, there's this continent called Sol. And it has a smaller sister called Luna. Luna Island, they call it.

The largest settlement on Luna is a city fondly named St. Astrol. At least, it was, before it up and disappeared over night.

The strangeness of situation sent all of Sol in an uproar. ...But, despite incredible efforts, nothing is found.

A decade later, the island of Luna is mostly uninhabitated, save for a continuing investigation led by the government and some crack-pot conspiracy theorists/tourists. Despite a yearly remembrance day for those who vanished, life went on.

Another item has taken over the news: A young adventuring pilot has been scouring the unknown world, slowly filling in the blanks of the increasingly growing world map. His brave efforts have been recognized, and a spot on the telly is being broadcast across Sol. The brave pilot has been given the nickname, "The Discerning Aviator."

You, the pilot, are eating out in a diner one rainy night when you are given a summons to head to Lady Elena's mansion across town post-haste. When you arrive, she reminds you of the strange occurrence many years ago, and makes a request.

She asks you to find her fiance, who disappeared along with St. Astrol. He had been on a business trip, and when he returned, they were to marry.

The next morning, You, Lady Elena, and her butler, Jeremy, depart in your airplane for the island.
