Impressed with Kor’s growing skill, his grandfather bequeaths to him a special type of weapon known as a Soma.

Soma users must possess exceptionally strong Spiria, the source of all life from which the human mind and will are derived. Armed with his Soma, Kor soon encounters a young woman named Kohaku Hearts who has been placed under a spell by a mysterious witch. As Kor attempts to lift the spell, he accidentally shatters Kohaku’s Spiria Core, the source of her emotions. Kor must set out on a journey to find a way to make Kohaku’s Spiria whole once more.
