That's how the protagonist, 14-year-old Rion Steiner, finds himself in. When Rion hears a girl's voice calling to him for help inside his mind, he psychokinetically frees himself and sets about trying to find his way to her. Little does he know that the attempt will pit him against a whole army of guards and robots, several other psychics known as Galerians, and [[BigBad Dorothy]], a very angry supercomputer with [[AGodAmI a god complex]].
Unique to the game is that instead of guns or melee weapons, Rion relies on chemicals known as PPEC, which allow him to do various psychic powers. They are also very limited in supply and continuous absorption will cause Rion to have a splitting headache, known as "shorting", that can harm non-psychic beings around him.
