Prologue

Rising out of the northern ocean is a large island, known as Britannia

since unknown ages past.

On that island, there was a never-ending battle between a belligerent

race of demons and the island’s other races, revolving around the

bountiful magical power of the land.

It was said that at the end of a violent battle, under the goddesses’

command, the humans, fairies, and giants united to seal away the

demons. And so peace finally came.

However, in doing so the goddesses lost their power as well,

disappearing from the land, and the number of giants and fairies also fell

drastically. As for the humans, now the rulers of the land, in exchange for

their greater influence, their magical ability waned. Of those remaining

who could convey that power even weakly, there were only a small

number of magicians, and a group known as the Holy Knights.

Three thousand years passed and the truth of those events was lost from

the memory of mankind.

Only one ancient poem remained.

When shooting stars cross and tear apart the sky, An immense

threat will fall down upon Britannia.

That will be a trial fated from ancient times, And will be the

omen of the start of the Holy War

Between the guide of light and the vessel of wicked blood.

At long last the prophecy had come true, and down fell a rain of

shooting stars, crisscrossing and tearing apart the heavens.

The many triggers set three thousand years ago were going off one after

another, and the demons, with their seal released, had been revived.

It was believed that Britannia would once again fall back to an age of

bloody conflict.

However, some opposed the demons to prevent that from happening:

The seven warriors, chosen by their strange fates to be known as the

Seven Deadly Sins.

And the Holy Knights who gathered to fight beside them.

They threw themselves into the fray to protect their loved ones.

They kept struggling, seeking the light along a path that didn’t have a

one-in-a-million chance of success.

What will be told here are brief tales of the everyday lives of those

heroes.

With each of their lives touched with a bit of color, this is a story of the

rainbow’s light.
