been suffering in many ways for 1,000 years. Players will witness Kaim's life as
he lives through many generations, becomes part of numerous families, falls in
and out of love, and confronts all of the conflicts that arise. Kaim's struggles
are set in a world that is on the verge of a "mystical industrial revolution,"
where mankind has attained dark powers.
