In a world plunged into darkness twenty years ago, as the sun disappeared behind a mysterious dome, humanity was divided into two classes: an elite living in a luminous city filled with luxury, and the rest of humanity in dark regions that knew nothing but cold and hunger.
But when a poor, rebellious young man catches a glimpse of a mysterious flash resembling sunlight, he begins a perilous race to discover the truth. Accompanied by a mysterious man who was once part of the ruling system, they embark on a journey against robotic guards, a giant dome, and buried secrets.
It's a story of hope and rebellion, as a simple man faces the most powerful force known to history in a decisive battle:
Either the return of the sun... or eternal immersion in darkness.
