After saving Princess Cassani from an attack, the mysterious Esher is reluctantly escorted by her back to Aurelia Kingdom, where he requests shelter. Cassani’s royal companion immediately dismisses Esher as a powerless loser unworthy of the palace, but the Princess insists he stay. Their arrival triggers a summons from the Queen Mother, who upon meeting Esher, notes an uncanny resemblance to her lost son. As Esher reveals he is searching for his own long-missing mother, a hidden connection to the royal family seems to surface.
