Welcome to Ys
           
            Welcome to my Ys homepage.  I became extremely addicted to this weird little game that I've had since I was eight.  It starts off with you as a warrior who must buy armor in order to defeat monsters around the town. Then you meet this bizarre sorceress who asks you to find the six books of Ys.  As you find the books, you slowly discover the history of an ancient land until it is time for you to save Fiina (a girl who happens to be a goddess) and to save the world from a villian named Malificus.  Although more games were created, I have yet to manage to get them to work.  *sniffle*  However, you may read the books of Ys, the ending sequence, etc.  Cool, no?

            The Book of Mendal
            The Book of Toban
            The Book of Tawala
            The Book of Malak
            The Book of Zakan
            The book of Malificus
            Ending Sequence
             

            Ys has two goddesses.  Fiina is the younger one, but my favorite is Leah, the elder. She appears early on as a poetess who asks the hero, Arick, to find her silver harmonica as she can't compose any thing without it.  I am still looking for more information on her, and if anyone can find that, or a version of Ys II for the PC, please e-mail me.  If anyone has any questions as to how to get through Ys I, I would be glad to help as much as I can. However, due to the complexity of the mazes, I have not tried to write a walk-through.
