In the future, the First World was devoured by dark rifts from which monsters of unknown realms poured out.
Cities collapsed one after another, and everything humanity once knew drowned in chaos.

Those who survived fled, abandoning their original homeland behind them,
and forged a new empire upon the ruins of the past—an empire born from fear and hope alike.

a small child stood in a pool of blood, surrounded by torn corpses.
His tearless eyes stared at the bodies of his parents, hanging from the wall,
while something inside him—something deep and unknown—began to awaken… slowly.
