Kenji (or Kami Kazi when he's angry), a lone fighter with mixed Caucasian and Japanese parentage wanders the desert of a steampunk wild west, working for clues and battling corruption and lawlessness on a quest to find his father. Miss Dolores Abyss (who many claim to be a witch) follows a parallel path, seeking justice to those responsible for atrocities committed against those she calls family. Her telepathic talent to sap emotions from those she confronts helps along the way. Kenji and Abyss cross paths in Wildtown, and are captured by Beaumont, the big bad half-cybernetic entrepreneur that owns the place and operates out of his fusion reactor plant that powers the town (and many of its vehicles). His elite cowboy force of ten, known as 'The Dispatchers', and his loyal Comanche brave assassins insulate him from any threat, and Kenji and Abyss pose a threat.
