For a year and a half, Youko Asagiri has carried an unreturned affection toward one of her classmates. To convey her feelings, she writes a solo for piano that she intends to present when she finally speaks. Yet at the decisive moment, Youko lacks courage and her classmate is left unspoken, and suddenly the earth engulfs her!
In an instant, Youko finds herself in the enigmatic land of Ashanti. She quickly befriends a talking dog called Lingam, who reveals that Ashanti is a sister domain of Noa, the world she once knew. She learns that Ashanti thrives on ancient magic, contrasting Noa"s technology. Its people cherish the old ways with reverence today. The two realms were linked before but were split by the warrior Leda to safeguard Noa"s citizens. Now, Youko"s arrival has briefly opened a corridor between the worlds, which Zell"s malevolent forces aim to solidify.
Zell"s agents seize Youko"s cassette player, believing it to be the legendary Heart of Leda, which powers the seal that keeps the worlds apart. Yet Youko evades capture by assuming the form of Leda"s warrior, a transformation that grants her unmatched strength and speed. With these newfound powers, can she defend Noa"s people and return to her original realm? Her journey will test her resolve, friendship, and destiny.
