The provided text appears to be a script or a transcript of a game or movie. It's a complex narrative that unfolds over a long period, involving various characters, races, and a multitude of plot twists.
In the beginning, we're introduced to two titanic forces locked in an eternal battle. Life begins to grow on their bodies, which leads to a resumption of the battle on the Mekonus. The Mekonus is inhabited by the Mekons, robots that eat people, and the Homs, a race of humans with a fantasy-sounding name. The strongest Homs is Dunban, who leads the Metcon resistance. His signature weapon is the Monado, a weapon that can effectively destroy Mekons but kills anyone who is not the chosen one. Dunban is not the chosen one, but he possesses a strong willpower.
The story takes a turn when Dunban is betrayed by Mumkar, a character who was predicted to betray his comrades. Dunban and Dixon charge at the Mekons in a last-ditch effort. A year passes, and the protagonist Shulk, who lives in Colony 9 with his best friend and childhood love interest, picks up the Monado. He can now see into the future, giving him the chance to change destiny.
Shulk and his companions embark on a quest to destroy the faced Mekon, a character with a face that is an important part of the plot. They encounter various challenges, including a gaggle of faced Mekongs, including the one from the beginning of the game. Shulk eventually beats up the Telethia, a race that appears to be invincible, using a new Monado power.
The story takes a turn when Shulk starts having visions about a place called Prison Island. They meet a bird lady named Melia, who is revealed to be their princess. Melia's visions are about a place called Prison Island, but to get there, they have to pass through Aeris Sea, which can only be accessed through a portal in the nearby Napon Village.
The party reaches Alchemoth, a floating island in the sky inhabited by bird people. It's revealed that Melia is actually their princess, but her wings aren't as big as the other Hiantia because of her mixed blood. The party follows the emperor to Prison Island, where they meet the giant shown in Shulk's vision. The giant, Zanza, reveals that he is the one who created the Monado.
The party encounters various challenges on the way to the Mekonus, including a rock falling from the sky that kills Mumkar. Fiora, a character who was predicted to betray her friends, turns against Agile and gets decapitated. Shulk rescues Fiora, who joins the party as a permanent member.
The party reunites with the rest of the party and enter a village full of peaceful Mekongs. They are given a mission to kill Eggiel, who tries to explain that the Bayanis is about to reawaken and that all life on Bayanis will be used as a sacrifice to supply it with ether. Shulk confronts Eggiel, who is then killed by Dixon.
The party confronts Zanza, who tries to convince Shulk to join him and rule the galaxy. Shulk refuses and begins the final battle. He manages to awaken the third Monado, which is actually Alvis's true form. Zanza is obliterated once and for all. Albus then sends Shulk back in time to witness the birth of their universe.
The story concludes with a flashback revealing that Zanza and Manith were originally scientists who were performing experiments to create a new universe using a supercomputer run on the AI known as Alvis. However, an accident caused the destruction of their own universe and the creation of a new one.
