Deep in a quiet forest was a house where a boy and a black cat, known as a Mana, lived. The boy had no relatives, and the cat was his only friend, as close to family he had. The two had lived quietly together. But their quiet life ended with a sudden visit from an outsider. The man who came said he was a teacher at Al-revis Academy, a school that taught alchemy. That was the beginning to his life with his friends at Al-revis. ...and his introduction to Alchemy.
