Spoilers ahead

Two companion sorceresses, the overpowered Lina Inverse and the underdressed Naga the Serpent, wander into the town of Stoner, famed for its enterprising golem makers. There they rescue a young girl named Laia Einberg from an out-of-control golem, and the two magical duo hopes for a well-deserved reward. Laia leads them to her workplace and introduces them to her father, Galia, and her brother, Huey Einburg. Galia is a renowned crafter of classic toy golems, celebrated for his skill, yet he’s recently feeling the pinch of money troubles. The tension between him and Huey—over how their golems should look and act—creates a brewing clash of visions within their workshop.
