TALE follows Earth's struggle in the twentieth-second century against an alien threat known as the Kaynians. This story depicts the journey of a genetically created super soldier named Tale, whose first official mission goes wrong with a squad called Sword and Shield (S.&.S.). The cause of this mishap is a piece of Kaynian technology called Gate, which can open a wormhole anywhere in the galaxy. This sends him, his A.I. partner Vee, and his Kaynian rival to a distant planet called Eldrant. A world of magic, fantasy, and elves, a planet ruled over by magical kingdoms and monarchs.
