The game centres on the absurdly typical Square Enix character of Rush Sykes, a boy of about 16 with a horrible mewling voice that makes me want to punch him. He is chasing after his sister, who has been kidnapped by some bad guys and ends up being dragged into a massive political battle between a strange entity known as the Conqueror and various factions who are battling for control of the 'Remnants', strange items left on the planet by forces unknown.
