Assuming Lina to be a damsel in distress, the foolish yet magnanimous man confronts the brigands in order to rescue her.

However, without realizing it, Lina has chanced upon a mighty magical item among her most recent spoils.

This way they begin their adventure, one where the fate of the world itself may be at stake.
