Lost Soul Aside sees players stepping into the role of Kaser, an war orphan who was raised by his younger sister, Louisa, who both Jon up with a resistance group known as GLIMMER, which opposes the Empire’s oppressive rule. However, the world is shaken by the arrival of Voidrax, mysterious invaders form across dimensions; as such, Kaser is forced to embark on a perilous journey to save humanity and Louisa.
