She's not in any real danger, but a dim-witted yet good-hearted swordsman named Gourry Gabriev comes to her rescue anyway. The two join forces and head to Atlas City, battling foes they encounter along the way. Unbeknownst to them, two mysterious figures are hot on their trail, particularly interested in the “treasure” Lina and Gourry have stolen.
