PENDULUM takes place after the events of KAI’s debut title Walpurgis. It had been four years since the abominable ‘Circle of Doom’ incident and true peace still had not fully returned to the world. Various areas were still infested with grotesque angels (circulars) and it was up to a group of girls with magical powers, Magus Order, to rid them once and for all.

It appeared that their efforts had lowered the numbers of the circulars. However, people started questioning the existence of the Magus Order when their powers rivaled that of even the military. This caused a rift among the members of the Magus Order itself, resulting in a split of the group.

But even in the midst of the confusion, the fact remained that circulars are threatening the world. They cruelly murder humans and revel in hearing their screams and suffering. The Lightning Lancers division of the Magus Order descended from the assault dropshop Orthros into this hell which no one wishes to see, to fight against these ‘angels’ before disaster envelops the world once more.
