Transcript:
Ages ago, advanced technological cities covered a once-beautiful land. As the great races of this land experimented with artificial life they also discovered a great energy source within the land itself. Using four pillars, they used their technology to construct a perfect immortal cell to harness this energy and imbue them all with immortality, but their experiment went horribly wrong.

A great explosion rocked the land. Before the survivor's could regroup, four titans were mysteriously unleashed, causing further devastation. The races of the North, South, East, and West stopped the titans, but only at great cost. Ages later, their struggles continued in a cursed land, their past lost to legend, unaware that the cell that brought their destruction still festered underneath the surface.

You are a blue-skinned drifter armed with a sword of light but you are super sick. When you aren't coughing up blood, you're having visions of the technological utopia of the past and the destruction that cast the world in shadow. An ethereal canine wants to lead you to answers but a shadow creature fights to entangle and destroy you instead. With a mysterious illness and nothing to lose, slash your way through each region and uncover the mistakes of a haunting past.

Have fun!
