"Don't pray... it won't save you!" This is a tale of long ago, when the world was obsessed with witches. In the kingdom of Ekskuld, the "witches" who worshiped and made offerings to devils were convicted by the clergy and burned at the stake in the name of God. One member of "The Hammer for the Holy," which hunts the clergy who carry out "witch hunts," is a lower knight called Mist, who challenges the "holy warrior" who carries a mysteriously huge sword to a duel.
