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

One month had passed since Nick finalized the merger with Solace, creating Sky Dream.

For the past month, Nick had been showing Hera how he ran Dark Dream up to this point.

Naturally, since Hera was already a very experienced Chief Zephyx Extractor, she learned things very quickly.

There were a couple of things that Nick learned from her as well, but most of the time, Hera was learning from Nick.

Solace had it a bit easier when it was established since they had received a lot of funding back then.

Even more, the city had wanted another Manufacturer since there hadn't been a lot of competition back then, and Solace came at just the right time.

Then, they got the Bright Candle, and their status as a Manufacturer was essentially unassailable.

Everyone needed light, and getting a good source of that wasn't easy.

Dark Dream, in comparison, had it much harder.
