In the continent of Aesera, where the source of magic has been broken, a thousand-year curse has been reawakened by the rediscovery of the ancient artifact "Heart of Darkness". Kyle, a young scholar who cannot use magic, accidentally becomes the container of this catastrophic artifact and is forced to embark on a thorny road of escape and search for the truth.
Intertwined with his fate are Isabella, the elf astrologer who suffers the pain of the decline of her race and is full of hatred for humans; Grim, the dwarf runemaker who hides underground and holds the key to the seal; and Maurice, the high priest of the cult who lurks in the Islands of the Dead, trying to unlock the seal to summon the ancient gods.
From the fall of the human kingdom to the truth about the decline of the elven secret realm; from the deep underground city-state of the dwarves to the Cursed Islands inhabited by the undead... A heroic adventure related to the fate of the entire continent begins. Kyle must stick to himself amidst the whispers and corrosion of the artifact, work with his partners to prevent the arrival of the ancient evil god, and find the glimmer of hope amidst the ashes of despair.
