Seles is a small village near the southeastern border of Serdio. It is the current hometown of Dart and Shana. As Dart returns from a five-year journey in pursuit of the Black Monster, he finds the village in ruin.

Story

In the opening cutscene, the ground is set ablaze by order of Fruegel, head warden of Hellena Prison. Soldiers advance on horseback as villagers flee. The Great Commander rides into the village, escorted to where Shana has been captured. After a short discussion with the Hooded Man, she is taken away to Hellena.

The aftermath is witnessed by the protagonist after Dart confronts two soldiers leaving Seles and then is rescued by a woman from a dragon. Dart asks the woman about the dragon, and the woman answers that the dragon is related to the war. Realizing that Seles must have been targeted, Dart rushes to the site where he finds some buildings still smoldering. He enters the village and encounters some stragglers from the attack, drawing his sword to protect the remaining villagers.

Further into town, Dart comes across his friend Plos, who is one of the few survivors. Plos elaborates on how Shana, Dart's childhood friend, has been captured. He explicitly notes that she was taken away and was the soldiers' purpose for targeting the village. Dart is left with no time to digest this information, as he is approached by the Commander. The Commander reveals that Shana has been taken to Hellena Prison, then charges forward to attack. After defeating him, Dart promises Plos that he will return with Shana.

Dart finds a few more survivors. Among them is his old sword master Tasman. Tasman challenges Dart, wanting to ensure his old pupil is strong enough to take on Hellena. This battle is optional and only serves as a tutorial. Dart then sets out on his new quest to rescue Shana.

Trivia

This is the first location where named NPCs can be missed by the player. These two children, Isha and Lowe, can be encountered by entering the first house closest to Dart (right) after exiting the post-battle cutscene with Plos.
Leftover on the game disc is an unused screen of Seles. It looks nearly identical to the larger town square area, but a less quality. When accessed by external means, the player can move around the scene as a draft version of Dart's 3D model.

+<!--Synopsis - this content will be seen first. A short opening paragraph that summarizes the location. Spoilers should be limited; write the location the way it is introduced to the player. For example, if the location is Hellena, do not write that Albert is held captive or that Lloyd is the Hooded Man. However, it is fair to assume that the reader is aware of events prior to the point this location is introduced. -->

+<!--Initial expansion of synopsis. Provide an opening paragraph or two. Additional writing is to be added in the below div tag, where "Additional Text Goes Here" is written as a placeholder. The code it is wrapped in, will allow the Story section to have one paragraph showing by default, and the rest of the write-up expanded via a "Read More" button. This prevents the rest of the page contents being pushed very far down by default in the event that a reader is not looking for story content at the moment, while still allowing anyone to opt-in.

-;Introduction
-In the opening, the ground is set ablaze by order of [[Fruegel]], head warden of [[Hellena Prison]]. Soldiers advance on horseback as villagers flee. Houses burn, up through the rooftops. The [[Great Commander]] rides into the village, escorted to where Shana has been captured. After a short discussion with [[The Hooded Man]], she is taken away to Hellena.
-A majority of the buildings are burned down and destroyed, the survivors forced to live in ruins of their old homes. Dart arrives near Seles the next day, reading about a rumored war approaching from a news pamphlet. Upon hearing the galloping of horses, Dart gets up and is greeted by two soldiers. They question whether Dart is a mercenary with their weapons drawn at him. Dart draws his sword himself, startling one of the soldiers. Before anything could happen, a thundering noise approaches the three. A [[Dragon]] appears, causing the two guards to flee. Dart tries to fend off the dragon, but has to escape after realizing its power. While trying to run, a woman dashes over to Dart and brings him behind a forested area where the Dragon cannot see him. The woman mentions after they are safe that "that village" could have easily been destroyed without a Dragon. Dart questions her statement, and suddenly realizes she must be talking about Seles. Dart exclaims that Seles is his village, and rushes off towards it. Dart returns to find the village destroyed like she said; some buildings still smoldering. As he enters the village he encounters some stragglers from the attack and fights to protect the remaining villagers.
+The aftermath is witnessed by the protagonist after [[Dart]] confronts two soldiers leaving Seles and then is rescued by a woman from a [[dragon]].
