隠居暮らしのおっさん、女王陛下の剣となる
Watt Sears, an aging former Mechsteel knight, has traded his glory days for a quiet life as a train station employee. He spends his time showing new pilots the ropes, much to the chagrin of his boss, the city's baron, who wants him back as a Steelrider, hunting monsters and defending the city.
Now nearing forty, Watt prefers to support the new generation rather than stand in the spotlight. However, his peaceful retirement is shattered when his long-lost daughter, Anna, appears before him. She asks for his help in a brewing royal power struggle, and Watt vows to protect her.
As assailants descend on the city from all sides, keeping his promise proves to be no simple task. With turmoil rattling the kingdom, can this old knight survive his new post and keep his daughter safe?
