Far into the future after a mysterious apocalypse, the human race has risen once again. Freedom is perseverance, and compliance is mandatory.

On one fateful night a theft from the city repository begins a chain of events that will force Aericat to choose a side in the war over the truth itself. These events could very well unravel a conspiracy that has been hundreds of years in the making, and decide the fate of Novus...
