Story
Separated from the other SRF ships after departing Earth, the SRF-003 Calnus crash lands on this planet. The surface is covered with densely populated jungles and forests. Unfortunately, the crew of the Calnus encounters several types of hostile creatures immune to their rail-guns, being forced to rely on more archaic weapons to combat them. Edge manages to slay the oncoming beasts and him and Reimi journey on. They travel through the creature infested jungle until they end up on a beach. Further up on the beach is a wounded soldier from the SRF-005 Eremia which is crashed nearby. The man tells them about a something that destroyed the ship. After his death Faize joins the party. But soon after the greeting a boss battle occurs - Armaros. The party defeat this creature and return to their damaged ship on to find that the Eldarians have set up a base expedition camp on the surface. They wonder round the base and talk to the head of the Eldarian base and eventually find out that their ship is fixed. They get to leave soon after and return to space.

Dictionary Entry

 * A minor planet located in the Sirus system, 8.7 light years from Earth. Gravitational interference from Sirius' binary companion prevented the planet's discovery by Earth until A.D. 2021. Its atmosphere and environment closely match those of Earth, and it had long been investigated as a potential candidate for terraforming. Once interstellar travel became a reality, it was chosen as Earth's first colony planet. Unmanned exploration reports turned up no signs of dangerous creatures or intelligent life, and the environmental samples revealed no harmful elements or unknown viruses, leading early researchers to dub the planet "Second Earth".
