The large nation of Leazas fell in a single day. Prince Patton of the Helman Republic led an elite force aided by Dark Lords; the castle was taken quickly, Princess Lia was captured, and the country collapsed shortly after. One ninja escaped in the chaos, carrying both the national treasure and a final message from the princess. The ninja makes it to the free city of Ice in the west, carrying barely enough hope to be useful—and calls on the one person who might actually help: a brutish warrior who spends most of his time thinking about beautiful women.
