What Ys: The Oath in Felghana is

Ys: The Oath in Felghana is an adventure game developed by Nihon Falcom and released in 2005. It is available on PlayStation Portable, Legacy Mobile Device and PC (Microsoft Windows).

The premise, in the publisher's words

When redheaded thrill-seeker Adol Christin and his eternal blue-haired companion Dogi make an unannounced visit to Dogi's homeland of Felghana after an eight-year absence, it quickly becomes apparent that things have changed dramatically. Hordes of violent monsters roam the outskirts of town, a long-dormant volcano has suddenly sprung back to life and the new lord of the land has begun mercilessly and inexplicably extorting money from its long-suffering citizens. While Dogi seeks out his former combat master for answers, Adol tends to the townsfolk -- and finds himself embroiled in a world of political conspiracies, ancient legacies and unthinkable taboos.
