It's now XX3048, where humans have evolved beyond comprehension and are inbred with other creatures who have brought monsters with them.
Three people, three different motives, and three stories, linked to the same event.
But it seems only one can have a happy ending.
As we set the stage, who will play the sinner?
Who will paint themselves the saint?
