Ys disappeared from the landscape soon afterward, but life around it continued on. Six priests wrote the collected history of Ys, its prosperity as well as its calamity, in six books, and these books were imbued with the power of Ys. At first, its discovery was seen as a sign of fortune, but it soon brought disaster to the land. Together, they watched over the land, as the people of Ys lived in harmony. Long ago, the land of Ys was created by two goddesses, one which represented order and the other which represented freedom. Subsequent versions of Ys I & II were released, with new titles, for Windows (2000), PlayStation 2, Nintendo DS, PSP, again for Windows (Vista/7), and finally Steam. The game was also released as part of a compilation, Ys I & II, for the PC Engine/ TurboGrafx-CD in 1989, along with Ys: Ancient Ys Vanished's 1988 sequel Ys II. Ancient Ys Vanished saw many subsequent releases, such as English-language versions for the Master System, MS-DOS, Apple IIGS, and TurboGrafx-16, and enhanced remakes for the Sega Saturn and Microsoft Windows systems. Initially developed for the NEC PC-8801 by Masaya Hashimoto (director, programmer, designer) and Tomoyoshi Miyazaki (scenario writer), the game was soon ported to the Sharp X1, NEC PC-9801, FM-7, FM-77AV and MSX2 Japanese computer systems. Ys: Ancient Ys Vanished, abbreviated to simply Ys ( イース, Iisu ?) in two versions (see the names section for other various published names), is the first installment of Ys, an action RPG series developed by Nihon Falcom in 1987.
