Synopsis[]
The year is 2222 (taking place 20 years after the game). It has been years since Tears of the New Moon, a mysterious rain, poured and wiped out almost the entire human race. The poisonous salt water rain gave birth to deformed creatures devouring humans called "Enders", and humanity escaped underground from the danger. As means for survival, the humans then built an underground haven; Amasia. In this newly built dystopian city, in a pursuit of maintaining their existence, they run into an Artificial Intelligence named Magus.
