Human civilization is rebuilt under the guidance of the Great King, using the power of eight gems (8 Eyes). These stones were formed as a result of eight nuclear explosions and carry a secret power. One day, eight dukes from the King's entourage steal these stones and the world is in danger. The player will have to become a warrior named Orin and go in search of all eight stones. Orin has a trusty companion - falcon Cuthrus, who helps him in all situations.
