A thousand years have passed since an ancient Demon Lord subdued a portion of the human continent.
In the long ages that followed, humanity was worn down by relentless natural disasters, famine, and wars with no end in sight, and gradually consumed by sorrow.
Blaming all of this suffering on "the malevolent souls of demonkind," the kings of men denounced the demons and, as one, launched a campaign of demon hunting.
In response, the demon kingdom of Deslyde chose the path of absolute isolation, turning away from humanity and sealing itself off from the outside world.
Meanwhile, in Almenan, the kingdom neighboring Deslyde, a single princess known as the Hero sets out to slay the Demon Lord at the command of her mother, the queen.
Proclaiming that "demons are evil", she raises her sword in the name of the justice she believes in...
This is the tale of those who struggle amid chaos.
A romance that bears ruin.
