In a distant realm where magic thrives, ferocious beasts shake mountains and rivers with their mighty roars, and individuals wield superhuman strength capable of reshaping their surroundings. It is a magical world where the strong rules. But rampant corruption and chaos exist, where slavery, rape, murder, and discrimination against the weak were all but common. The magically superior people trample over the lesser unfortunate folks, using them as stepping stones and disposable assets.

This civilization became the heaven for people seeking a stable and peaceful life. The Earth rose and seas parted ways, and the environment had totally changed for its adaptability. Unfortunately, the inhabitants of this great technological civilization are all but manaless, arriving in a world where they are seen as inferior and as slaves.

How will they survive against deadly monsters, magical beasts, and superhumans that could threaten entire nations? And how will the other powers that exist in this world react to a powerful, advanced nation filled with a race they deem inferior? This is the story of one of the most powerful empires on Earth, and how it broke the balance of power and rose to the top.

During an interview, when someone brought up the Arasaka Corporation, they casually asked: "Arasaka Tower? There's no such building in Night City - at least, not below..." The man slowly lifted his head, his eyes reflecting the city skyline - and behind him, a massive inverted triangle blazed with the blinding white PROJECT logo. (CYBERPUNK x LEAGUE OF LEGENDS)

Elias and Eliza, a couple paired through the Population Sustainment Protocol, struggle to reclaim their autonomy. The remnants of humanity now exist in enclaves, each a terrarium with pre-fabricated habitats. Some are lush biospheres glowing with neon chlorophyll and flowing with opulence. Others are drought-dominated dunes, frosty cavernous alpines, burping bogs of swamplands, and thrashing pyroclastic fields.

Kallen has to decide: Does he keep holding up a world that treats him like a spare part? Or does he let it fall?
