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
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, their homes set ablaze. 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 are forced to live in ruins of their old homes. The protagonist, Dart is meanwhile reding about a rumored war approaching from a news pamphlet. Upon hearing the galloping of horses, Dart rises and is encountered by two soldiers. They question whether Dart is a mercenary, weapons drawn. Dart retaliates, his own sword drawn, and in turn startles the soldiers. Before the situation escalates, a thundering noise approaches the three. A Dragon appears, causing the two guards to flee. Dart tries to fend off the dragon but after realistically experiencing its power, opts to flee. 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, but 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 as she said; 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 Shana's situation, Dart's childhood friend, explicitly noting that she was taken away; Shana was the reason that the village was targeted. Dart is left with no time to digest this information, 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.
