Roan and Yuufa enter Rune-Midgaard's capital on the beginning of their adventures. After doing a bit of shopping, they wonder around the city and get lost. In a back alley they stumble across three ruffians accosting a lady mage. They help the mage and scare the ruffians away. The mage, Takius by name, sits down to eat with Roan and Yuufa and while there, they discuss the growing evil in the land. The three ruffians summon a powerful monster, called The Clocktower Manager, to get revenge for their defeat earlier.
