Angel Falls is a town in IX. It is the first town visited in the game. It is also the town which the Hero/Heroine is selected to protect as guardian.

Story

After a short animation, you see your character staring at the Guardian Statue. Then Ivor comes to you to teach you "Village Rules", but really he is making fun of you. Then Erinn comes and sends them off (Then you say thanks to Erinn in your head) and tells you to take a walk, and when your ready, come home. The Hero goes to Ivor's house to see him being scolded by his father, the mayor. The hero heads back and rests.

The next day, Erinn wakes you up to tell you Ivor is there to see you. The hero goes and meets Ivor, who takes him/her outside to the side of the house. He tells you about how a landslide came between the path of Angel Falls and another town called Stornway. He says he will clean it but he wants your help. If you say no, he reasons with you by saying you have to pay back Erinn like this.

When you head to the exit of the village, Hugo stops you but Ivor pushes him aside (not literally). You two head out and reach the pass. When you reach, there are 3 paths. On the straight one you see the Starflight Express. Of course, Ivor cannot see it and says it's just a fallen tree. On the right side there's a pond with a treasure chest. Open it and find a Gold Ring. On the left the continuing path with the landslide. You and Ivor can't clear it, but you hear voices from the other side. They are Stornway soldiers, saying that they will have the landslide cleared. Then they mention a woman named Patty, who came through the Hexagon.

When you head back to Ivor's house, his dad was very worried about him, and scolds him as usual. Then Erinn swooshes into the room to see if the hero had really been out of the village, and takes him/her back. Then, after, you go back to Ivor's house, Ivor thinks he's a hero.

Erinn hears about Patty and asks the hero to see if she's fine. But then she changes her mind. The next day the hero heads out to the Hexagon and keeps going straight when in. There is a stone wall blocking and a ghost comes, as if guiding the hero. The ghost then leads him/her to a statue with a button behind it. When pressed, the wall moves. When the hero makes it to the end of this first dungeon, he sees a woman (Later finds out she is Patty) trapped under a pile of rocks. She says she got trapped when running from a beast, when you help her, it comes back. Then when you defeat the Hexagoon.

You go back to Angel Falls with Patty and head into the Inn. There, Patty reveals that she has come for the Inncredible Inntertainer. When found that he is dead, she sees a future in Innkeeping for Erinn. Erinn refuses, seeing that there is no one to care for this inn. That night, when the hero goes to Erinn's house to call it a day, he/she sees a ghost, the same one at the Hexagoon. Then while you are talking, a blue ball of light comes and takes form of a faerie. She reveals herself as Stella, captain of the Starflight. She wants you to prove that you're a celestrian. She wants you to send the ghost's spirit to the heavens. You then go to a bush next to the waterfall, and obtain the Inny. You give it to Erinn and she sees it was her father's. When you come out, there is the ghost (Edwinn) fading, going to the heavens. Stella tells you to pick up the benevolessence, but it's invisible.

The next day she decides to leave for Stornway to run the inn there and leaves Ivor in charge of the one in Angel Falls. Then Stella tells you to go back to the pass to see if the Starflight will work now. You go, yet it doesn't work. Then she decides you go to Stornway and see if things get better from there. Thus ending the Angel Falls story line.


The Town Inn when it was under Erinn was a popular resting place for travelers, however when Ivor took over the Inn lost some of its reputation.The waterfall for which the town is named is said to having healing properties This is the reason given for why Erinn and her father moved there when she was a child and is later used in a few quests to produce Angel Tears when combined with fresh water.

At the east side of the region is the dungeon The Hexagon, the original connection path between Angel Falls and Stornway.

Inn

In the start of the game, Erinn will give the Hero/Heroine free rest at her house. Later, Ivor takes over the Inn after she leaves for Stornway.
