In the world of Crystan, countries are constantly at war with each other and had never reached a conclusion. Amy Bladia is someone who had his life drastically changed because of the confusions of the wars. In the country of Victoria, the Princess of the Kingdom of Bladia, was the only survivor of her kingdom's destruction and disappearance, so she had worked to survive for the next 15 years and was nicknamed the "Forgotten Princess", having rumors of having golden hair, red eyes, and a belt that had the symbol of a rabbit on it. Due to the disappearance of Bladia, the country of Victoria had become very weak in military power, making it the weakest of the three warring countries and also making the Forgotten Princess the hope of Victoria's survival.
In the town of Arenas, a boy named Cornell Throne, (nicknamed Nell) is the most well-known person in the town and also the smartest warrior. As a little girl traveling by herself enters the town, Cornell had mistakened her to be a girl who was looking for her father who had entered the town and had unknowingly irritated the girl. Once his mistake was corrected, the girl had introduced herself as Amy and had told him that she was looking for information about the forgotten kingdom, Bladia. Before Amy was able to get any information, the building behind them had exploded and the travelers from earlier that day had came out of it as if nothing happened. Once the travelers had began to stir up more trouble, Amy taken out her sword and had threatened them to leave, but they didn't, so they were then beaten by Amy, who then revealed her full name as Amy Chevalier D'La Bladia, the Forgotten Princess and the Red Rabbit Thief. Once Amy had saved the town, she had just noticed that she had accidentally destroyed the Throne's inn, Nell's family's home and business, and was chased out of the town by the fans of Nell but was also followed by him, telling her that until she pays him for the inn she destroyed.
