Four working individuals are set to begin their adventure in the once prosperous town where they have to collect information about its root of destruction.
---
In a progressive city of Minokawa, it is expected to be one of the cities praised for its high rate of economic growth. Their pioneering distribution of resources, responsible usage of highly developed technology, and its top priority to build institutions and provide quality healthcare to the public challenged the neighboring lands to be better.
But with all these striking descriptions of what the so-called Kite City can offer, there is a part of it that remained untouched by modernity.
Soluna.
Apart from its antiquated geographical data, a horde of historians, journalists, and curious onlookers strived on excavating the origin of the town. However, with the continuous failed attempts on their search, Soluna still persists to be impenetrable of what's beyond the town's historic rack and ruin.

"I'm the Angel of Death" Scoffing and pulling from his touch. "And you were assigned to me?" "Yes" "You're an angel sent to what? Kill me?"

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Complete
