Cael is no legend—just a skilled thief drowning in debt. When a final job offers a way out, he must steal the Null Contract from the Ledger Spire, a towering archive of every obligation ever sworn.
But the Spire is alive. It reshapes its halls, whispering temptations and stealing memories with every step. As Cael navigates its labyrinth alone, he faces an impossible choice: unleash humanity’s freedom—or seal its chains forever.
In the end, he sacrifices the last of himself to keep the world intact, emerging with nothing but a single reminder in the form of a note:
"I chose to remember enough to know why I did it."
