Sun Saga

The Sun Saga is a series of collectible book items in Golden Sun: Dark Dawn that provide a retrospective on the events of the previous two games in the series. When one of these are used, a corresponding movie will play on the bottom screen, in which a condensed form of the previous games' story will be told through simple pastel art, with the classic characters appearing in a chibi style.

Sun Saga 1
This book can be found in the main room of Lookout Cabin, when the area that green books lie upon are inspected.


 * The saga of the Golden Sun begins long before the transformative event happened over Mount Aleph and the village of Vale.
 * The relics that could release the Golden Sun were hidden within a temple known as Sol Sanctum.
 * Then came the day that the villagers Garet, Isaac, and Jenna set out to meet the local scholar of Alchemy.
 * They stumbled across strangers in the shadows who desired to possess the relics of the temple.
 * They rushed to find the scholar Kraden, who said they had to find out if Sol Sanctum had been breached.
 * Though only priests were allowed inside, Kraden and his friends dared to enter the temple to find out the truth.
 * The traps they found within the temple should have scared them away, but its mysteries lured them ever deeper.
 * But what they truly couldn't resist was the spirit of adventure.
 * Their final destination took them to the heart of the mountain where the relics of the temple had been hidden.
 * Their moment of wonder was interrupted by the arrival of thieving fiends!
 * They'd duped Kraden into solving the temple's riddles for them!
 * Their guide was Felix, none other than Jenna's brother, who was thought drowned during a storm in Vale three years earlier.
 * The thieves stole Jenna and Kraden away...
 * and then stole the legendary relics from Sol Sanctum...the Elemental Stars.
 * Isaac and Garet were left to fend for themselves in the relic chamber.
 * Their exit was cut off. They couldn't leave the chamber!
 * The mountain began to shake angrily, awoken by the loss of the elemental relics.
 * Magma began to bubble and gush. Mount Aleph was, in truth, a slumbering volcano!
 * Isaac and Garet were trapped!
 * Just then, the protector of Sol Sanctum appeared! The godlike Wise One had come to their rescue!
 * The Wise One explained that a nightmare had been put into motion by the theft of the Elemental Stars.
 * Four lighthouses, which had sealed away the apocalyptic power of Alchemy, could now be powered back up!
 * The lighthouses could be reignited with their matching Elemental Stars...
 * unleashing Alchemy upon the world.
 * After telling of ancient catastrophes averted...and a new one soon to begin...
 * the Wise One teleported Isaac and Garet safely out of the mountain, back up to the temple entrance.
 * They were saved from the volcanic wrath of Mount Aleph.

Sun Saga 2
This book can be found in Patcher's Place, by entering the lowest-left residence and inspecting the upper left cupboard.


 * The day after Mount Aleph erupted, Isaac and Garet left Vale.
 * They began their quest to get the Elemental Stars back.
 * And, of course, to rescue the kidnapped Jenna and Kraden from their captors.
 * Jenna's brother, Felix, who had turned traitor on Vale, had to be stopped.
 * As they traveled across the continent, the two heroes met others who joined their party.
 * The Wind Adept known as Ivan was next to join. Along with his power over the skies, he could read people's minds.
 * The three Adepts journeyed onward...
 * enduring trials of their heroism throughout the continent...
 * until they finally arrived in Imil, where they found the first Elemental Lighthouse.
 * Here they met Mia, who had devoted her life to caring for the sick and elderly of Imil.
 * Mia was also one of few members of her family still alive to look after the lighthouse, the one devoted to the water element.
 * Unfortunately, by the time Mia and the heroes entered the lighthouse, they found its beacon already lit.
 * Someone had beaten them there, someone who'd helped reignite its fire.
 * This intruder was Mia's cousin, Alex. As another surviving member of her family, Alex was a Water Adept, like Mia.
 * His betrayal of his people meant failure for the heroes as well. They could not stop the beacon from being lit.
 * Isaac and the party had traveled so far, yet their journey had been in vain.
 * Mia was bound by duty to join Isaac and his friends.
 * She knew that her cousin would stop at nothing to ignite all of the lighthouses.
 * Together, they could perhaps stop Felix and Alex, the two fiends who had the same mad ambition.
 * The party was now four strong! The Adepts renewed the chase!
