Plot:
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia takes place after Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, sometime in the mid 1800s. As the Belmont Clan had vanished by that time, several organizations are created in order to research countermeasures against Dracula and his eventual return. Between these organizations, the most promising was the Order of Ecclesia”Dominus.” Shanoa is a member chosen by the order’s leader, Barlowe, as the human vessel for Dominus. Before the ritual is performed, the Dominus glyphs (Anger, Hatred, Agony) are stolen by Shanoa’s colleague Albus. She decides to retrieve them, unaware of his true intentions. who created a triad of magical glyphs based on Dracula’s power, named
In her pursuit, Shanoa arrives in the deserted Wygol Village and finds out that Albus kidnapped its inhabitants, brought them to different hidden locations, and imprisoned them. As Shanoa rescues them throughout the game, she learns that Albus captured them to perform some kind of experiment on them which involved draining samples of their blood. On two occasions, Shanoa manages to track down Albus, who willingly lets her retrieve one of the Dominus glyphs. When she finds him to be possessed by the power of the third glyph, she is forced to fight him. After killing Albus, his mind and soul are absorbed by Shanoa together with the last Dominus glyph. She learns that Albus’ true intentions were to find a way to defeat Dracula without Shanoa using Dominus, as he knew that it would cost her life if she used it. He also reveals that the reason he experimented on the villagers was because they were the last descendants of the Belmont Clan, and he erroneously believed their blood would have the power to help him control Dominus without it consuming him. As for her lost emotions and memories, he revealed that Barlowe used them to create the glyphs, a fact he hid from her.
Confronting Barlowe after learning the truth, Shanoa hears from him that his true objective was to bring Dracula back to life using her as a sacrifice. After Barlowe is defeated in a fight, he ends up offering his own life to revive Dracula. Shanoa sets out for Dracula’s castle to defeat him. Eventually confronting Dracula, she successfully defeats him using Dominus Union (Dominus Anger, Dominus Hatred, Dominus Agony), but seemingly at the cost of her own life. However, Albus appears and reveals that only a single soul has to be offered. He sacrifces his own soul in Shanoa’s place, but not before he asks her to smile for him. Dracula’s castle crumbles and Shanoa escapes.
