Sorey is a human youth who grew up among the ‘Seraphim’ (tenzoku), spiritual beings not visible to humans. Sorey believes in the folklore that says that long ago, every human was able to see the Seraphim, and he dreams of unravelling the ancient mystery to make the world a place where people and Seraphim can live together in peace.

One day, Sorey visits the human capital for the very first time. He becomes embroiled in an incident during which he pulls out a holy sword imbedded in a rock and ends up becoming a Shepherd, one who casts calamity away from the world. He begins to realize the gravity of his mission, and his dream of the coexistence between mankind and Seraphim becomes more intense.

And thus, the Shepherd embarks on an amazing journey with his companions.
