Story
sometime in the 1800s, right after the era of Richter Belmont. As the Belmont clan has disappeared at the time, several organizations were created to study countermeasures against Dracula and his back end. Among these organizations, the most promising is the Order of Ecclesia, which creates a magical flying machines triumvirate of power is based on Dracula, called "Dominus." Shanoa is a member of the order chosen by the leader, Barlowe, as a human vessel for Dominus. As the ritual begins, the Dominus glyph (Anger, Hatred, Suffering) which was stolen by Albus Shanoa colleagues, and Shanoa lost memories and emotions. He went to retrieve them, aware of the actual intentions.
In that pursuit, Shanoa Wygol arrived in the village deserted and found that Albus abducting people, bringing them to a different location that is hidden, and imprison them. As Shanoa save them throughout the game, he knew that Albus captured them to perform such experiments on those involved to take their blood samples. On two occasions, Shanoa track Albus, who was willing to give two of the Dominus glyph. When he found himself to be possessed by the power of three flying machines, he was forced to fight him. After killing Albus, mind and soul are absorbed by Shanoa together with recent Dominus glyphs. He learned that the real intention Albus' is to find a way to beat Dracula without Dominus Shanoa use, because he knew that it would cost his life if he uses it. The lost memories and emotions really taken by Dominus, and Albus, as has been said Shanoa Barlowe. He also revealed that the reason he experimented on the villagers because they are the last descendants of the Belmont clan, and he believes their blood will have the power to help him control the Dominus without it ate him.
