Nearly a millennia has passed since Earth was inhabited by Old Generation humans. Those who stayed behind were left to die and those who moved on and adapted to the galactical lifestyle survived. Fast forward several centuries when a micro-satellite discovers that life on the barren planet Earth may not be so dry after all. Eric Castor, a young environmentalist recruit fresh from the academy, is one of the first to set foot on Earth after centuries of abandonment. He is part of the New Generation of human species from a planet called Atlas. The New Generation are more intellectually advanced, physically structured, and live longer than any Old Generation would ever have dreamed possible. It was made clear whom the superior form of the species was, engineered better by nature. When Eric discovers the intoxicatingly dangerous specimen from Earth named Exotica, his entire view on the human race as a whole is warped. He must make the decision to either aid in the destruction of Exotica's remaining people, or save them from his own. . .

He's damaged. He's lost. And worse of all, his memories have come to life. If he wants to find peace, he'll need to redefine what it really means to move on. -- For the first time in years, Atlas feels like he's separated himself from the misfortune in his life. He's healed, he's rented a decent apartment, he's settled into a solid-enough-for-him job working as a grunt for some scientists. Now he's (reluctantly) traveling to the spring snows of Alaska, where they plan to test the first run of their earthquake-harnessing technology. But something goes wrong. They don't harness the energy of an earthquake. No. Instead, the ground rips apart. A massive crevice forms, leading deep into the Earth. The chasm lulls him forward like a Siren, telling him tales of his mother, of her laughter, of her scent of strong sandalwood, and of his life before her death. Waking up in what he can only describe as Hell, he's confronted with every misfortune in his life. Forced to befriend mirages made from his most painful childhood memories or pay severe consequences, he travels the twisted realm in search of answers.
