The game begins with Riou and Jowy waking up from their sleep, they are the member of the Unicorn Youth Brigade of the Highland army. On the same night, the maniacal Prince Luca Blight orchestrate [[false flag]] attack on Highlander soldier, blaming the Jowstonian and giving the excuse to justify an incursion deep into Jowston territory after the recent peace treaty. After witnessing the slaughter of their fellow Highlander, Riou and Jowy have no choice but to escape by jumping from a cliff into a river, promising to return to that mark if they ever get separated.

Riou is rescued from the river by a group of mercenaries working for Jowston Army, led by Viktor and Flik from the first ''Suikoden'' game. Riou is detained as an enemy soldier of Highland. Jowy is rescued and nursed back to health by the keepers of a mysterious shrine in a nearby town. Learning of Riou's imprisonment, Jowy rescues Riou, and the two escape back to their hometown in Highland. After reuniting with Nanami and recruiting Mukumuku, Riou and Jowy are captured and sentenced to death by the Highland army to silence the truth of the youth brigade massacre. They are once again saved by Viktor and Flik, but the mercenaries prove no match for Blight and the Highland army and are forced to flee. As Luca razes the region, Riou and Jowy return to the now-destroyed town where Jowy was rescued, and discover that the shrine is the resting place of the Rune of the Beginning. Inside the shrine, each receives half of the Rune, with Riou gaining the Bright Shield Rune and Jowy gaining the Black Sword Rune.
