Words Worth - Plot of The Anime

Plot of The Anime

With the help of Nina, Astral obtains a Swordsman's license illegally. Before he can join the battle against the Light Tribe forces and their king Fabris, he has his first of many sexual experiences: first with Maria, who has been taken prisoner and whom he naively rapes, and then with Nina, who had always harbored a secret crush on him.

Eventually arriving on the battlefield, Astral sees Hyde die at Sir Fabris' hands, which ignites a powerful rage, and he races to rescue Sharon as she is about to be raped by Fabris. Astral surprises Fabris and manages to slice off one of his arms. But then Maria, who has managed to free herself, casts a powerful spell at Astral in a fit of vengeful furor, inadvertently blasting him onto the surface and 20 years into the future as well as obliterating his memory.

After many wanderings, Astral finally reaches civilization (i.e. the tribe of Light) and is immediately mistaken for Pollux, a famous Light swordsman who had mysteriously disappeared many years ago to whom Astral bears a striking resemblance. Finally, he is taken in by King Fabris, who recognizes both his attacker and his value in his schemes against the Shadow people, and successfully tricks Astral into opening the sealed gateway between the Light and Shadow realms.

Meanwhile, Wortoshika has nearly completed the tablet, much to the chagrin of his advisor, Tessio. As it turns out, both Tessio and his Light counterpart, Menza, are two parts of a monstrous entity which is responsible for destroying the Words Worth tablet in the first place. Determined to prevent the completion of the task, they attack Wortoshika in the cavern where he stores the tablet.

In the meanwhile, Astral confronts Sharon in combat and gradually recovers his memory. Together with her and a few other allies, including Nina and her daughter Ariadne, he reaches the secret cave where the incomplete tablet is stored. Fabris and his men also arrive for battle, but instead end up allying with the Shadow forces against the entity of Darkness, and a dying Wortoshika reveals Astral's true lineage: he was kidnapped from the Light tribe as a baby - though the fate of his real father, implied to be the late Pollux, is never shown - in order to fulfill the prophecy with the expected child from Astral's and Sharon's union. However, it is Ariadne — who, as Astral's and Nina's daughter, fulfills the terms — that manages to complete the tablet and read its message, which reveals both God's desire for both tribes to be progenitors of a "complete" race of mixed Light-and-Shadow blood. This revelation results in the end the century-long conflict and union of both worlds.
