The
prologue begins with Alberio, the leader of the Cobalt Knights
who leads his troops to a place inaccessible to normal players.
He had received a tip on a Vagrant AI from an unknown inactive
account (later found out to be Morganna hacking the account).
The knights corner the Vagrant AI in
Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground,
who appears in the form of a little girl in a red dress
named Lycoris, but she escapes their grasp and the mission
is a failure.
Alberio later receives another tip in regards to the same
Vagrant AI, from another hacked Morganna account. He enters
the field and reencounters Lycoris, who requests Alberio
to take her to the Gott Statue, where he will receive the
first Lycoris segment, "eciov.cyl". Alberio gives
it to the Vagrant AI child, who regains the ability to speak.
She suddenly teleports them both from the Gott Statue, to
Alberio's apartment in Mac Anu, where a monster attack is
being held, and a newbie Wavemaster named Hokuto requests
Alberio's help to defeat it.
Upon defeating the monster, he receives the second Lycoris
segment, "rae.cyl", which he also gives to Lycoris,
who can now apparently understand what Alberio is saying
to her.
Soon after, Orca and Balmung visit Alberio to request his
help in defeating the mission "The One Sin", a
mission considered unbeatable. Alberio kindly declines,
telling them that he is in the middle of an event (referring
to Lycoris). Once Orca and Balmung leave, Alberio attempts
to log out but can't. Lycoris has prevented him to do so,
due to her wanting him to help her.
