On the fantasy planet called Gaia, civilization and war are intertwined in the shadow of the "fog". This mysterious substance is not only the energy that drives machinery, but also the disaster that spawns monsters. It also involves the fateful entanglement between two planets, Gaia and Terra, that spans thousands of years. Garland, the guardian of Terra, tried to devour Gaia through the "Soul Cycle Plan" to continue the existence of Terra, but his creations, the silver-haired madman Kuja and the thief boy Jitan, became variables in this conspiracy due to their awakened self-awareness.
