Story Summary
Long ago, a ferocious war, which came to be known as the Holy
War, was waged. It was during this bloody conflict that humanity
erected a magical barrier to keep both gods and demons from
overrunning their world. Once the war was over, it was believed
that peace would return. However, humanity soon began to turn on
itself, and war began anew.
Many centuries after the Holy War, the Branshaldo Empire and the
Aura Republic engaged in an extended war for control of the
Grantria Peninsula. The conflict eventually ground to a halt and
an uneasy truce was reached, as neither nation had the resources
to continue fighting. Even so, the animosity between the two
parties never faded, but smoldered beneath the surface, always
threatening to explode into flames. In the resulting tenuous
peace, the people of the peninsula began to resume their normal
lives, always aware that the war could resume at any time.
It was against this backdrop that the protagonist begins their
fight against rival factions, hordes of ravening monsters
controlled by enigmatic puppet masters, and even their own dark
impulses...
