In SkyKeepers, Tangi and Pelagi fight their way through a fantasy world to save their fellow villagers and collect O’na to help restore and repair their once great SkyKeeper Village. As the village is revitalized, Tangi unlocks new attacks and skills allowing for unique, high-level fighting styles to evolve.
