For the time being, Percival and his friends have thwarted Ironside's evil scheme and escaped. They've also gained a new companion: Anne, who aspires to become a Holy Knight like her mother. On their way to Liones, the party stops at a post town called Cant. There, they run into someone unexpected—the captain of the Liones Holy Knight Corps, a famous warrior known for his achievements during the Holy War. But how did a venerated war hero end up here, drinking himself under the table in Cant? And how do he and Donny know each other? Percival and company thought this would be a simple pit stop, but they soon discover that they've unwittingly stepped into the lion's den!
