The sun is broken.
The heart of Gov, the four-in-one saviour, staggers through the sky, drenching the starving lands in burning light, or plunging them into frozen night. The deserts drown fertile lands in sand and dust.
All of this is our punishment for failing the covenant with the four-in-one, who saved us from the Emergency nearly 300 years ago.
When the sun stalls for minutes, hours, or days, some say that it is dying, and Gov with it. Rumours on the wind, swiftly stilled by the brutal efficiency of the Church.
Twice before, fiery blessings fell from the sun, destroying the lands and peoples below.
Nothing grows where these splinters of a broken sun touch the earth-- nothing but knowledge of the lore lost in the Emergency, for those who can claim these relics.
It has been 30 years since the last splinter fell within the Church's domain. The sun grows less stable, and the earth sweats and shivers, but life continues to find a way.
It is the year Emergency Plus 260. Four youths, freshly out of general school and starting their apprenticeships, live together with their parent groups in a traditional quad.
Their lives are like any others: hard, but routine. There are no surprises in the Church's domain. Three days a week, they work the fields or the fungus caverns; three days a week, they learn their new trade; and one day a week, they go to the Shrine in the center of town to receive Gov's blessing.
Today is just another day, this meal is just another meal, and the sun outside of town is in just another stall. Soon, it will move again, and time will resume, and life will continue its dreary crawl.
Soon.
Any minute now.

For the third time in history, a splinter fell from the broken sun. Four apprentices living in a quad in Town 3-7 witnessed the fall, and decided to try and claim the splinter for themselves, hoping to turn the chaos to their advantage-- financial or otherwise.
In the confusion of the lockdown, they escaped their quad and made their way to the walls, where they were able to climb out of town and onto the baked steppe outside. There, they saw another group making for the crater. The race is on.

For the third time in history, a splinter fell from the broken sun. Four apprentices living in a quad in Town 3-7 witnessed the fall, and against all good sense (and laws) decided to try and claim it for themselves.
In the confusion of the lockdown, they escaped their quad and made their way over the walls, where they encountered a rival group and battled them on the baking steppe. Now, they must summon all of their strength to make it into the crater... and see what the sun has left them.

Four years have passed since the Third Splinter fell and our heroes touched it. They have completed their apprenticeships, and their mandatory military service, and are finally ready to join society as full adults. Today is Shrine Day, so it's time to go and receive Gov's blessing.
Of course, it would be pretty boring if everything went as planned, wouldn't it?

Shrine Day didn't go as planned.
Against all odds, Héctor Qeema-- Emren's adoptive father-- was chosen to receive the Blessing of Piety. Unfortunately, it was a trap: rather than delivering a blessing, the shrine delivered death. Six Auditors came from the sky, initiating a purge of Town 3-7 as punishment for their harbouring members of the Excom. Thinking quickly, the five apprentices just barely escaped with their lives, and ran through the city to head for Izabel's lab, and the hidden library within.
And it had been such a lovely day...

The five emerge from the earth into darkness. For one of them, that darkness is permanent. For all of them, what lies beyond the shadows is beyond anything they could have imagined.
Welcome, travelers.

Emren is blind. Medb is injured, poison coursing through her veins. The Five stagger through the darkness, looking for food, water, shelter... anything. Looking for hope.
They find something, all right.

Our heroes have survived in the Hub for six weeks, but supplies are running low, and the local wildlife isn't friendly. Each of them has found their own way to pass the time.
Now, however, time is almost up. Our heroes must go deeper into the Hub than they've ever dared before, and face trials that will either make them stronger than they've ever imagined... or simply kill them.

Deep in the bowels of the Hub, our heroes stumble upon a hidden kingdom, and there must confront its queen. Who shall rise, and who shall fall?
