  • Phoenix's story will take place in the Kurain Kingdom, while Apollo's story will be set in Japan
  • Most citizens of the Kurain Kingdom follow the Kurain Religion, which is primarily centered around spirits and mediums
  • The Kurain Supreme Court is located inside the Jinn Temple, where proceedings are ruled by the "Divine Message of the Spirits"
  • Gaspen Payne is back and has been an undefeated prosecutor in the Kurain Kingdom ever since being chased out of the Japanese legal world
  • Leyfa Padma Kurain is princess medium of the kingdom and has the power to see a victim's last moments prior to death
  • She'll be known as the "Oracle of Spirits" and will use her powers in court to project her visions of a victim's death onto the "Water Mirror" in the middle of the courtroom
  • Whatever appears on the mirror cannot be disputed and will be taken as absolute fact
  • Phoenix will be fighting an uphill battle and will have to find contradictions in the visions to disprove what is depicted
