On Lemurias, monstrous creatures known as Nightmares are born from people's fear and torment. The story begins with the meeting of the girl Emma and the boy Azel. Emma is a Nightwalker, trained to fight by using Nightmares. Azel is a boy who seems to attract Nightmares to himself.
Jin Fujisawa, the scenario writer for many games in Square Enix's long-running Dragon Quest RPG series, is writing the scenario for the game. Yasuharu Takanashi, who composed the music for the television anime of Mashima's Fairy Tail manga, is composing the game's music.
