Set in an original world, where the advent of an industrial revolution is clashing with the magical folk of the continent, you are caught in the middle of a great religious event that has been prophesized for ages. The implications of this event spawn out into various consequences that see you being hunted and sought out be organizations of all sorts. It is your mission to find the truth behind all these happenings and fulfill your destiny for better or for worse.
