Gods are not immortal, but consumables forged with "world gears" - every miracle accelerates the corrosion of the gears. When the core gear of the God of Light is about to collapse, the church wants to sacrifice the entire town's children in exchange for a false "ultimate miracle."
Ike, a border orphan who could see the rust on gears, was slandered as a heretic and hunted after witnessing the conspiracy. He was forced to team up with the undercover Oracle Sister Lenore, while avoiding the iron hoof of the church, while fighting against the Rust Tribe who tried to awaken the Chaos Gears.
When the gods fell and the gear storm swept across the earth, Ike realized that the so-called miracles were just an illusion of the rotation of gears; the fate of mankind should never be held in the gears of gods. He will bring the newly forged star core gear to recast the rules of the world - this time, gods will be defined by mortals!
