Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse.

Countless technologies and advances had been lost to time as the Specters, horrifying beings with terrifying powers, arrived and destroyed the world.

Over the coming thousands of years, humanity had built itself up but always died again.

Nobody remembers the past.

Nobody remembers what humanity had once accomplished.

Now, everyone is living in a world where the Specters reign supreme.

-----

A boy with amnesia woke up in the middle of the Dregs, the worst part of Crimson Fungus City.

The boy grows up and manages to become strong enough to pass an exam for one of the most prestigious jobs in existence, a Zephyx Extractor, someone that can harvest the powers of Specters.

Sadly, he had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position.

But then, a mysterious man visits him.

And his luck finally turns around.

Kill the Sun

For a couple of hours, Nick just watched the motionless coffin.

It was almost like it was just a normal coffin.

Wyntor's voice came out of the speakers inside the Containment Unit.

"Is it already six a.m.?" Nick asked.

"Sure," Nick said. "Would be nice if you could keep a watch over the Screaming Coffin. It doesn't seem to do anything while it has a corpse inside of it, but I want to know when it actually starts to move around again. Don't worry, it is very slow, and you can easily retreat from it if it tries anything."

"Should be fine as long as you take a look inside every hour."

"Sure," Wyntor said. "I can do that."

By now, Nick had already opened the door and walked outside.

"By the way," Nick said, looking at Wyntor. "Can you also tell the others about the Screaming Coffin? They don't need to work with it, but they should know that we have a second Specter."
