The world is mostly ruled by the Empire that tries to become even stronger and expand even further, but there are still islands that oppose them.Īt the start of the story, we are presented to a small chunk of the world, the cookie-cutter island where Gran lives. People who fly on those vehicles are called skyfarers. Granblue Fantasy is set in a universe where people are constrained by the place they live in, that being a flying island, with the only means of travel being airships. I"m going to tackle each of those elements. On their journeys they meet new adventurers, some of which join their crew, discover new lands, some of which they have to save, and uncover the corrupt reality that was created by the ruling force: the Empire.įirst let me pose a question: What's the most important part of an adventure in a piece of fiction?

That object turns out to be a girl, more specifically: Lyria, a government experiment that's been hid in special facilities until she was rescued by her guard Katalina.
