Humanity was at a complete loss in how to fight back until the god [[Myth/NorseMythology Odin]] appears in front of the world leaders at a global summit discussing The Pillars, providing humanity Walküres herocraft as their wings.
Several years later, the battle between humanity and Pillars rages on, with men supporting the Walküres as they soar through the treacherous skies to save the world.
Japan has also become a battlefront, with the Primary Pillar standing over Mt. Fuji, and the 3 Walküres, [[RagtagBunchofMisfits who are skilled but problematic]], fight against it. One day, an AcePilot is reassigned to their base from Europe...
