Absurdly High Level Cap only applies if reaching the max level is wildly unneccesary to beat the game. Reaching 90, while just below 100, is still within Absurdly Low Level Cap.

In the land of Valisthea on the twin continents of Storm and Ash, five great crystal mountains known as the Mothercrystals tower over civilization. The Mothercrystals are mined for crystals that are rich with [[{{Mana}} aether]], a valuable resource that allows the people to enjoy lives of comfort and plenty. Six kingdoms rule over different parts of Valisthea: [[TheGoodKingdom The Grand Duchy of Rosaria]], [[PrivatelyOwnedSociety the Dhalmekian Republic]], [[TheEmpire the Holy Empire of Sanbreque]], [[TheHorde the Kingdom of Waloed]], [[TheTheocracy the Iron Kingdom]], and [[TeamSwitzerland the Crystalline Dominion]]. The six vye for control of the Mothercrystals for the power, wealth, and security they provide. In recent years a threat to all of humanity has crept up on them: the Blight, a phenomenon where the aether in a region is dried up, leaving it [[{{Mordor}} a dead wasteland]] where the water is stagnant, plants do not grow, and animals will not lie. As the Blight slowly encroaches and displaces towns and villages, the nations of Valisthea have stepped up their aggression to flee the Blight and seize territory from each other.
Born into the people of Valisthea are [[DifferentlyPoweredIndividual the Dominants]], humans born with power over ancient beasts of destruction, "[[{{Kaiju}} Eikons]]". There are eight known Eikons, one for [[ElementalPowers each element]], and their Dominants can call upon their Eikon's power to empower themselves to [[OneManArmy fantastical extremes]]. In especially extreme circumstances, they can even [[ElementalShapeshifter transform into the Eikon]], becoming [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever towering beings]] of [[FantasticNuke magical mass-destruction]] that can reshape continents and level mountains. Some people hate the Dominants as abominations, others admire them for their power, but all fear them, and they are used as {{Human Weapon}}s in Valisthea's wars, willing or not. Below the Dominants are the Bearers, humans who can use magic without the need of a medium like a crystal. Unlike the Dominants, Bearers are near-universally loathed; upon their discovery a Bearer is [[MarkOfShame tattooed on the face]] and taken by the government, and then [[SlaveRace pressed into servitude]], forced to use their powers for the betterment of society.
In Rosaria, [[TheProtagonist Clive Rosfield]] is the first-born son of Rosaria's ruling archduke, and the sworn First Shield of his little brother Joshua, Dominants of the Eikon of Fire, Phoenix. However, on the night Clive, his brother, and father are readying for war, they are betrayed by the Empire and the archduke is killed. During the attack something unprecedented occurs: a monstrous entity emerges from within the castle walls, Ifrit, a ''second'' Eikon of Fire; something which should be impossible to exist. When the flames settle, the only survivor is Clive, who is seized by the Empire and enslaved as a Bearer to fight in their military. 13 years after the fall of Rosaria, Clive takes an opportunity to escape the Empire and sets off on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge, intent on tracking down the cloaked figure he believes to be Ifrit's Dominant and killing them to claim vengeance for Joshua. Along the way he'll [[CharacterDevelopment learn more about himself]] and [[TheChosenOne his role in Valisthea's fate]] as buried truths about the Dominants, the Eikons, and the Mothercrystals, come to light, and an AwfulTruth emerges - for Valisthea, and humanity, to truly be free, the Mothercrystals must be destroyed.

** Eikons are the game's take on the ''Final Fantasy'' Summoning mechanic, usually used as a LimitBreak or a long-lasting buff against tough enemies in prior games, but not otherwise immensely destructive to the surrounding or allies in the team party. This game shows how dangerous the consequences of summoning beings with near godlike powers would ''actually'' be, especially in situation where they're matched against the Eikons of opposing kingdoms who can match their own might. Unopposed, the Eikons can devastate the landscape by the incidental use of their powers, and even the weakest of them can single-handedly destroy entire armies without effort. When locked in combat with each other, the collateral damage from their attacks is equally as devastating to their own side as to the enemies, with Titan and Shiva's clash in the prologue nearly killing Clive and massacring the warring armies around them by accident as the fighting draws nearer them. Accordingly Eikons are treated like [=WMDs=] and the threat of one priming is considered a grave danger to ''everyone''.

* CounterAttack: Precision-dodging an attack allows Clive to follow up with a counterattack. Additionally, various eikonic abilities are counterattacks.
** Phoenix: Heatwave by default sends out a flaming slash. If this slash hits an enemy's projectile, it blocks that projectile and Heatwave Counter is triggered, sending out even more slashes and reducing the ability's cooldown.
** Garuda: Rook's Gambit has Clive jump back and then deliver an attack. If the jump makes him evade an enemy attack, then the follow-up attack is stronger and cooldown is reduced.
** Titan: Titanic Block is a shield that blocks attacks. Precision-blocking an attack allows Clive to counterattack up to three times. There's also Raging Fists, a series of punches. If the first hit blocks an enemy attack, Raging Fists does more damage and has lower cooldown.

* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: A late-game sidequest reveals this to be the case [[spoiler:for the Bearers. A highly heretical tome called ''From a Distance'' details how, in the past, Bearers were highly revered and lauded for their ability to wield magic without the need of crystals and could assume positions of political power. Ultimately, however, it was the Bearers' decision to create an organization "by Bearers, for Bearers" that proved their undoing as this caused most, if not all of Valisthea to turn on them, leading to a series of events that escalated into a full-blown civil war the Bearers ultimately lost. The tome also implies a great deal of the prejudice against Bearers is rooted in the brutal conflict as the anti-Bearer forces came to demonize them to the point they were no longer considered human]].

Born into the people of Valisthea are [[DifferentlyPoweredIndividual the Dominants]], humans born with power over ancient beasts of destruction, "[[{{Kaiju}} Eikons]]". There are eight known Eikons, one for [[ElementalPowers each element]], and their Dominants can call upon their Eikon's power to empower themselves to [[OneManArmy fantastical extremes]]. In especially extreme circumstances, they can even [[ElementalShapeshifter transform into the Eikon]], becoming [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever towering beings]] of [[FantasticNuke magical mass-destruction]] that can reshape continents and level mountains. Some people hate the Dominants as abominations, others admire them for their power, but all fear them, and they are used as {{Human Weapon}}s in Valisthea's wars, willing or not. Below the Dominants are the Bearers, humans who can use magic without the need of a medium like a crystal. Unlike the Dominants, Bearers are universally loathed; upon their discovery a Bearer is [[MarkOfShame tattooed on the face]] and taken by the government, and then [[SlaveRace pressed into servitude]], forced to use their powers for the betterment of society.
In Rosaria, [[TheProtagonist Clive Rosfield]] is the first-born son of Rosaria's ruling archduke, and the sworn First Shield of his little brother Joshua, Dominants of the Eikon of Fire, Phoenix. However, on the night Clive's brother and father are readying for war, they are betrayed by the Empire and the archduke is killed. During the attack something unprecedented occurs: a monstrous entity emerges from within the castle walls, Ifrit, a ''second'' Eikon of Fire; something which should be impossible to exist. When the flames settle, the only survivor is Clive, who is seized by the Empire and enslaved as a Bearer to fight in their military. 13 years after the fall of Rosaria, Clive takes an opportunity to escape the Empire and sets off on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge, intent on tracking down the cloaked figure he believes to be Ifrit's Dominant and killing them to claim vengeance for Joshua. Along the way he'll [[CharacterDevelopment learn more about himself]] and [[TheChosenOne his role in Valisthea's fate]] as buried truths about the Dominants, the Eikons, and the Mothercrystals, come to light, and an AwfulTruth emerges - for Valisthea, and humanity, to truly be free, the Mothercrystals must be destroyed.

** During the first half of the story, a lot of focus is given to how Annabella and her Black Shields are purging Rosaria of its Bearer population and slaughtering any village that gives them shelter.

While Clive himself seems responsive to the idea, and come the end of the game he certainly has the means to do it and no one could feasibly stop him, it never goes beyond an idea discussed.
