Gimel is first introduced in a mysterious flashback [[Aleph]] has in [[Valhalla]], in which a [[Mekata|man]] introduces him to Aleph and asks if he remembers his name. If Aleph responds he does, Gimel can be renamed. Otherwise if he responds with no, then he will be told Gimel's name. | |||
Gimel's first in-person appearance is in the Arcadia district of [[Tokyo Millenium]], after [[Zayin]] reccomends that Aleph visit him. There, wealthy citizens hand-picked by the [[Center]] live lives of luxury, free from pain and strife. They refer to Gimel as their lord, viewing him as their true savior. When Aleph meets with him, he discusses the state of Arcadia, claiming that he built it into an ideal world that serves as a prototype for Millenium's vision for the [[Millenium Kingdom]]; A world where demonic threats and conflicts between others cease to exist. He requests that Aleph tell Zayin that Arcadia is a great success, and sends him on his way. | |||

If the player chooses to visit Arcadia after Zayin announces his rebellion against the Center, Gimel will comment on it, saying that he is saddened to hear him saying such things. The rest of Arcadia will also voice similar, albiet more hostile, thoughts, not believing anything that Zayin says. | |||
When Aleph gains access to [[Makai]], a spatial distortion can be found southeast of the [[Yetzirah Corridor]] that sends the party to a mysterious facility. In it are multiple people with dilapidated apearances, tied to chairs and hooked up to small machines. In reality these people are residents of Arcadia, and at the topmost floor, the real Gimel can be found, a featureless, cybernetic man hooked up to a giant machine, a stark contrast to the ethereal appearance his virtual avatar has. There he reveals the true nature of Arcadia: It is nothing more than a lie, a virtual simulation he administrates that merely emulates the appearance of a peaceful world. Gimel reasons that even if it is a lie, it is one that gives people the peace they so desire, and so declares that he cannot allow anyone who discovers the truth to live, attacking Aleph's party right after. | |||
After defeating Gimel, Aleph is presented with a choice: Enter his name into the system, which will register him as the new savior of Arcadia, destroy the system, which will destroy Arcadia along with killing all the residents hooked up to it, or simply leave it be, leaving Arcadia without an administrator. | |||
