Synopsis:

A century after a decisive victory over the demon king, Orvelia enjoys a fragile peace. Whispers of renewed demonic activity in the forests shatter this tranquility, prompting a scouting mission that yields unsettling results. As fear spreads, a mercenary leader, driven by ancient grievances against humanity, schemes to seize control of Orvelia and enact retribution for past injustices.

The story follows Kasel, a knight apprentice unexpectedly burdened with a lineage tied to the original hero. Guided by a priestess, he undertakes a quest to rescue a missing comrade, only to discover his destiny is intertwined with the legendary Holy Sword Aea – the weapon that vanquished the demon king. Kasel’s journey towards fulfilling this prophecy clashes with the vengeful ambitions of Riheet, creating a complex dynamic as both strive to shape Orvelia's future and confront the lingering shadows of a hundred years past.
