Guardian of the Witch is set in a fantasy world in which humanity lives in walled cities to protect themselves from roving monsters (evils). These cities are protected by teenage girls (witches) that have been given magical powers by merging them with the essence of evils (seeds). Our main character, Fafner, is the guardian of the fire-witch Manasfa. However, after rejecting orders to kill the witch due to impending corruption by her seed, they escape the city in search of a cure.
