Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth chronicles the quest of a new adventurer as he or she attempts to reach the top of the towering Yggdrasil Tree. For it is said that whoever braves the dangers of the dreaded Yggdrasil Labyrinth and reaches the summit will have their greatest wish fulfilled.
This is the story of Yggdrasil, the world tree in the land of Arcania. Children of men pass down an ancient fable: “The power of the gods will be granted there…” Disciples of magic study an archaic myth: “The great mysteries shall be answered there…” Descendants of warriors recite their folklore: “The ultimate techniques can be mastered there…” Nomads of the plains exchange a fairy tale: “The lost treasures must be slumbering there…”
From all across the land of Arcania, each culture pursues its own legends. They journey to Yggdrasil, yearning to reach the top and meet their destinies.
