STORY

Bitter from the pain of his past, Andel seeks out Aphass Kexxir, King of the Kexxrans, to stop the Vribyss exploitation responsible for the greatest refugee crisis their world had ever seen. In his pursuit, he encounters displaced people who reveal more about his mysterious past.

Andel begins to seek solutions in the unseen world as he notices his natural skills and combat strategies aren't enough.
