Catalium is a relatively peaceful world, with the only real problem being the bandits that have never been quite as active as now. The land has not seen war for some time now, and everyone seems to get on, the balance of power not being tipped in any direction.
Our main character is a girl in her fourteens who lives there, in a town called Vrail. She lives with her father, her mother having departed all too soon.
However, there can never be complete peace. There will always be rebels, or bandits. And when the bandits deal a crushing blow to the life of our main character, she is thrown into a tough world, one that is quickly and forever changing into something that no living being could ever have predicted.
And when times change, so do those that have always been close to you.
And the ones that were the hunters, become the hunted.
And Catalium is changing, more than ever, and there is nothing to do, except try to live through it, to try to survive in the world that was once peaceful.
This... is the APOCALYPSE!
