Aliens... they came, they saw, they conquered. Our world was was nothing to them but an asset to be stripped of resources. Even 600 years after the majority of them departed, humanity still struggles to survive in the mess they left behind. Together with their horde of genetically altered life forms and the hostile environment they continue to manipulate, the few remaining alien castaways keep us subjugated and condemned to a life of abject misery. It's a world where only the strong survive. Some worship the alien overlords and some work as their lackeys, but all exist at their leniency. Yet one man has a plan. He is the Strintouri. He comes to unite the clans, destroy the overlords, and cleanse the world of their dregs. He brings hope to a derelict world, but to build anew he must first destroy.
