Our story begins hundreds of years before the legendary adventures of Lenneth, The Battle Maiden. Silmeria Valkyrie is charged by Odin, Lord of the Gods, to gather the souls of the fallen. Silmeria serves her master faithfully until a certain incident causes her to doubt, and ultimately rebel against, the law of Odin. Odin immediately recognizes the danger. He transmigrates Silmeria's soul and summons the next Battle Maiden in her place. But the Sovereign's Rite, the divine spell used to transfer Silmeria's soul, is not complete. Silmeria awakens within the body of a young princess of Dipan. The princess's name is Alicia. Normally, valkyrie souls do now awaken when trapped within the body of a mortal. Lord Odin will not suffer one who defies his will to remain alive and conscious. One day, Odin will discover that the traitorous valkyrie lives. One day, he will bring divine retribution down upon her. Battles take place in real-time, utilizing the Advanced Tactical Combination (ATC) battle system.

Invoking his power as king of the gods, Odin hastily reincarnates the spirit of rebel valkyrie Silmeria into Alicia, Princess of Dipan. However, unbeknownst to Odin, the spirit of the battle maiden awakens within Alicia, still seeking vengeance. Years pass. Believing his daughter to be possessed, King Barbarossa of Dipan declares Alicia dead and exiles her to a faraway castle. Odin learns of Silmeria??s awakening and dispatches the imperious Hrist Valkyrie to summon her spirit to Valhalla. Alicia runs in fear- and Silmeria in defiance- as they embark on a journey where nothing is what it seems and all hide behind a mask. Sacred treasures offering unimaginable power suggest hope for independence, but manipulation and intrigue fool those who fight fate into fulfilling more diabolical destinies. The battle rages through the realm of Midgard, over the bridge of Bifrost, into the heavens of Asgard, and beyond as the struggle for control- over Alicia??s fate and the fate of all existence- unfolds in unforeseeable dimensions.
