Mother Earth

WWIII never happened, but the threat of its destruction sent the country into a downwards spiral, and after the second civil war there were only broken cities left behind. Science became a strict religion for survivors, and following the reconstruction scientists ruled civilians stronger than the government ever had. Populations grew around laboratories and research facilities, and a few decades later the areas thrived with new technology and agriculture.

With the promise of better life, Ark Corporation conducted its city. They weren't questioned, weren't accused, and were never wrong. Their lab rejects were always monsters, no matter who they were before or how they were treated while in testing.

With the balance of life teetering in Ark's hand, and the world edging destruction by pollution, Sivan is left stranded in his small town outside the city, wrapped within the political turmoil caused by the runaway experiments.
