You are a Swordian, a human with the ability to manifest the skills and techniques used by characters of legend. A Swordian’s manifestations are known as Swords, weapons of great power that descend upon the battlefield as the legendary characters themselves. As a bird yearns to soar in the heavens, so too do the Swords seek a place to do combat. Answer their call, let them sing out in battle. Alone or outnumbered, you fight on, undaunted. In the shadow of death, you stand unafraid. For you are a Swordian, a sworn defender of the peace!

You open your eyes and find yourself in a story—the story of the betrayal of the Muses, embodiments of thought who dwell within legends. As a Swordian, you know the Muses to be allies who can influence the world in the form of Swords. Even so, you must now challenge these powerful beings in order to avert a tragic fate. Fortunately, you can still call upon your trusted Swords from your own world. You can also receive aid from other Swordians whom you encounter in this story. However, you can only do so a handful of times, and the precise nature of this aid is determined by chance.
