In the realm of Ars, humanity wages a multi‑decade conflict against colossal beasts that scourge the countryside and consume its bounty. Those who confront these monsters are Paladins, wielding the fierce might of Clerics—entities endowed with wild, boundless magic.
While grieving his fallen comrade, ex‑Paladin Jiiro encounters Kuumi, a novice who has just begun to channel her own sorcery. After they pledge to protect the city from a looming beast assault, Jiiro discovers that Kuumi has fled a laboratory and is pursued by the henchmen of Mezami, the director of that facility.
Reluctantly, Jiiro agrees to escort Kuumi away from her trackers. He then travels with his new ally and her companion Myaa, a girl sporting a cat‑themed headdress. As the unlikely trio traverses Arsian terrain, high officials set their schemes into motion—and the adventurers soon realize that human foes are far more dangerous than beasts. Their journey reveals that the greatest threat lies within human ambition, not in the monstrous giants.
