The game begins in a chrysm mine in a far corner of the world, where a rare and powerful mineral is being harvested from the fossilized remains of dragons. When a large deposit is cracked open by dynamite, a preserved baby dragon emerges and quickly attacks the panicked miners before being knocked unconscious and placed aboard a train to be taken away for study. On the way out of the mine, the dragon jostles his cage off the train and falls down a hill on the outskirts of a large forest, where he transforms into a young boy before again losing consciousness. He is found by a wandering thief named Rei, member of the cat-like Woren clan and fellow orphan who believes him to be just another abandoned child. Taking him to his home in the woods, they meet Teepo, Rei's longtime friend and partner-in-crime, who agrees to let the boy into their thieving operation. Afterwards, Teepo mysteriously recalls Ryu's name. The team commits several crimes, and come into favor with local village when they stop the Nue (under orders from Bunyan, who caught the group stealing from his house), a beast stealing food from the farm and taking it to the mountains. Afterwards, a hooded man named Loki convices the trio to break into Mayor McNeils manor and steal the tax money back for the villagers. After battling several ghosts, the trio escapes with the money, and re-distributes the funds across town. Secretly a member of a large crime syndicate, the mayor contacts two hitmen, the horse brothers Balio and Sunder, to seek revenge, who proceed to burn down the trio's home and violently attack them.
