The narrative centers on Shio, a young boy living on the planet Noah, a world where humans coexist with sentient, mechanical beings known as "WaqWaq." These entities are revered as divine protectors, and their presence is integral to the planet's culture and survival. Shio, however, harbors a unique connection to the WaqWaq, as he possesses the ability to communicate with them, a rare trait that sets him apart from others.
The story begins with Shio's life taking a dramatic turn when Noah is invaded by a mysterious force known as the "Black WaqWaq," malevolent entities that threaten the planet's existence. Amid the chaos, Shio encounters a girl named Fenne, who is revealed to be a key figure in the conflict. Fenne is pursued by the Black WaqWaq, and her survival is tied to the fate of Noah. Together, Shio and Fenne embark on a journey to uncover the truth behind the Black WaqWaq and their connection to the WaqWaq of Noah.
As the duo travels across the planet and beyond, they encounter various factions, each with their own agendas regarding the WaqWaq. Among these is the militaristic organization known as the "Holy Empire," which seeks to control the WaqWaq for their own purposes. Shio and Fenne also meet allies and adversaries, including other individuals with unique abilities tied to the WaqWaq. The narrative explores themes of coexistence, the nature of divinity, and the consequences of technological advancement.
The plot delves into the origins of the WaqWaq, revealing their creation as a result of humanity's attempts to harness advanced technology.
