It has been a millennium since a global war known as the "Seven Days of Fire" destroyed human civilization. Only a tiny remnant of humanity survives, huddled in small enclaves across the continents. The Sea of Corruption, a thick jungle whose spores and plantlife are poisonous to humans, covers much of the Earth's surface.
Feeding on the pollutants of the former human civilization, the Sea of Corruption continues to expand, enveloping the outposts of mankind and consuming them. Giant mutated insects are now the dominant form of life, living both in and above the Sea of Corruptions. Of these, the Ohm reign supreme - seventy-meter long pillbug-shaped guardians of the Sea of Corruption.
One of these islands of humanity is known as the Valley of the Wind in Eftal. Protected from the spores by strong winds from the sea, these winds also power a forest of windmills to perform work and pump water from underground wells. Nonetheless, the inhabitants of the Valley must still be vigilant to ensure that the fungi do not gain a foothold amongst their crops and water supply.
All those who dare enter the Sea of Corruption must wear breathing masks, lest the spores rot their lungs. The human race is dying out and Earth is being destroyed further and further...
The future is bleak. Where will you stand as one of the last living members?
