The Lower Sector, formally the United States, is infested with organized crime in the year 2044. Arkin is a war orphan, who escaped from across the seas when he was merely a teenager years ago and found his place as a gunman for various companies, while N works for a branch of the black market, dealing with the supply of organs to clients. Two sides of the same coin. Killers. Cold blooded. Maybe even too far gone. But if that were true, can monsters dream of salvation, like they do?

Aeterna Dystopia, so wie die Menschen sie nennen, ist eine "ewige Nacht", welche scheinbar aus dem Nichts aufgetaucht ist und nun schon seit Monaten andauert. Niemand weiß, wie man damit umgehen soll oder wie man sie stoppt. Die Menschen sind aufgewühlt und verwirrt, verlieren ihr Zeitgefühl, ihre Empathie, ihre Mentalität. Die jungen Menschen Nuy und Alenia schlagen sich durch diese schweren und fragwürdigen Zeiten, ohne auch nur eine Ahnung zu haben, wie ihre Zukunft weitergeht, bis sie sich eines Tages treffen und unverhofft über einen Hinweis stolpern, welcher über ihr Schicksal und möglicherweise das aller Menschen urteilen könnte!
