The kingdom of Altago is rebuilding their kingdom around a newfound peace after years of war against the kingdom of Romn ravaged the land. A couple of adventurers, Adol and Dogi, arrive on the harbor of Altago and quickly find themselves in trouble with the Dragon Knights, the military police body of the kingdom, when attempting to save a local girl from harassment from one of their commanders. Upset from the interruption by a couple of outsiders, the commander arrests Adol and Dogi, charging them with the crime of espionage.
The king of Altago, having known of the duo’s pending arrival from an old trusted friend, quickly releases the pair from prison and summons them to his chambers. He tells the men about an ancient shrine that was uncovered after a recent earthquake and asks for their help in investigating the mysterious new area. Adol and Dogi oblige, unaware that they are undertaking the start of a long journey involving the resurrection of a great new evil, and consequently their mission to unite the five tribes of Altago and awaken their corresponding deities to have the “Five Dragons” assist them in the final battle to determine the fate of the world.
