Vandal Hearts is sort of hard to explain. Ummm. The theme is sort of medieval-ish. It takes place in a country called "Istaria" which is ruled by members of the Asash (sp?) Dynasty, who decended from Toroah the Messiah. Arris the Sage witnessed oppression and crimes against the people from the Dynasty, as the power went to their heads. He staged a rebellion that was successful, but he vanished sometime after.

When the games starts I forget who is ruling the country, but the defense Minister, Hel Spites, is planning on overthrowing him. Hel is a crooked leader and gets bandits to do his work, and he is seeking the Flames of Judgement (a mystical flame capable of mass destruction).

THe first three main characters are: Ash, Clint, and Diego who work for a security force that is in competition with the Crimson Guard, lead by Hel's son, Kane.

Yeah. I don;t really know how to explain it all though. You pretty much have to" play it or read a guide, to understand :P
