And Ashley is sent in by the VKP to break the cultists' hold on the manor. The manor of Duke Bardorba of Valendia Kingdom had been seized by a cult of religious zealots lead by Sydney Losstarot, while the Duke was away. Set in Medieval times, the game's story revolves around Riskbreaker Ashley Riot, who is a member of the Valendia Knights of the Peace (VKP). Truth be told, the actual storyline of the game plays out much better than most of today's big blockbuster films. In fact, the five-minute long opening sequence to the game is one of the best one will ever encounter in a videogame and will pull the player deeply into the storyline as well as any opening to a big budget Hollywood action flick. Under the fine direction of Yasumi Matsuno, the game has a storyline and presentation that are equal to that of Hideo Kojima's cinematic masterpiece, Metal Gear Solid. The biggest case in point is that Vagrant Story is generally overshadowed by Square's other titles such as Final Fantasy IX, Chrono Cross, Legend of Mana, and Parasite Eve II, when it's arguably one of the best games on PlayStation.
