Titan Shift

They say a single candle can both defy and define the darkness.

So too can a single soul defy and define a world.

Across the maze of space and time lies the City of the Seven Holy Stations. Here, the remnants of a people, banished from their homes, have raised a new land - a city of light and purity. Here, castles of ivory and gold soar into a vermillion sky, and women float in painted gardens in gowns of silk and silver. Everyone lives in peace, content with their rules and their duties, happy with their station in life. But there is more to be found in this sparkling land than simple piety. Below the surface of this white-washed utopia lies a cancer; a darkness that is spreading. It is a darkness that will threaten to destroy them all.

It is up to Jahavis Dragutin to stop this darkness.

Orphaned at an early age, Jahavis grew up on the streets of Sixth Holy Station. Learning quickly of the cruelty of man, she raised a rebellion, and begins to lead the fight against the darkness of the Holy Mother Church. But there is more to Jahavis than meets the eye. Somewhere, in the blood and the black of battle of the Seven Stations, she seeks answers to the questions of her past. She will test it all, her love, her life and dreams for the answer. But will it be enough?

Far away, across the Seretti Plains, lies an ancient people. They are untouched and unbroken by the land of the gold men and light - but separated by their own delusions. Tribes, each more different than the last, are battling it out for freedom and dominance. Each seeks to reign supreme but it will take more than a battle to heal their wounds. There is one among them that can save them all. A hero prophesied before the landing of the White Lord. But, can this hero lead their people to freedom and victory, or are they simply a myth, a legend of the ages?
