Mordred was a scientific genius, inventor, and former ruler of the Kingdom of Arturus. His experiments with cyborg organisms was decried by the populace and he was deposed. Years later, the solar system is raided by the robot forces of the Binary Bard, who has built creatures much like Mordred's designs. When the Princess is kidnapped from Arturus, space knights are sent out to rescue her.
