Imagine if you could fully enter a game and play as you are, fully experiencing everything as you would in the real world. That is the dream of the full dive system. The only problem is there is currently no idea what that may do to the human psych and body. Well for Scion this opened a new door of opportunity. Dieing from an unknown disease he is given a choice. His body will be frozen allowing time to pass for a cure to be developed and although the body will be at rest the mind stays active. Thus making him the perfect candidate to be a test subject for the new full dive system. Or die. For Scion the choice was simple, with nothing left to live for and no relatives to worry about, he'll become the first test subject for the new full dive system. The only catch is, the system might kill him itself. Join Scion as he travels an unknown world, tempting fate as the new system is developed.

The Real World has become monotonous. Everyday it's the same thing, work, eat and sleep. New adventures and fantasy has become a thing of the past. The imaginations of the people have dulled and main streamed. Boredom has taken over the youth as game after game became easier to play and usually have the same parameters, such as beat the boss, or save the princess and complete the story line, but, not anymore. Starlight International had a vision of revitalizing the fantasy of the entire planet and threw all their resources in creating the most diverse game ever to hit the markets. 10 Years after their announcement to challenge and change the gaming industry, Starlight International rolled out Divine World Online, a virtual reality game which changed the face of not only the game market, but also every other departments of the world. Boasting a full mind saturation system the game enables the player to truly experience the game as if he/she was present inside a new world. In just a few weeks the number of active players reached the 8 digit number. In a few months it became an absolute necessity to play the game. Due to the time difference in game of 4 days to 1 day in the real world, schools now held classes in game for longer hours using private servers; Armies, Navies and Air Forces have requested private customized servers where they can practice combat tactics in different environments, Companies now had meetings and practice trading techniques in game and testing of new methods to be used in the real world has become a trend. 1 Year after the game’s release, everyone was and is playing the game now. Everyone, but a small orphaned boy of 16 who is busy lifting boxes for a convenience store in order to get some money to buy food and survive the harsh realities of the world around him.
