Pan has never seen the sky. He has spent his entire life believing the surface of Earth would kill him. He was wrong. Raised within one of humanity's last underground sanctuaries, Pan has only known the Vault and its ancient caretaker, the Shepherd. For over a thousand years, the Shepherd has protected its people from the truth… at a price. Forced to the surface after a mysterious Ichor fuses with his body… Pan awakens to a world completely transformed by the System. Towering forests have swallowed forgotten metropolises. Massive Titans roam the land. Humanity survives in scattered bastions, twisted by the System that remade the world. The further Pan ventures from the Vault, the more he questions why the Shepherd hid him from the new world… and what it feared. Some truths are worth dying for; others are worth becoming something else entirely. ... What to expect - Blood, gore, graphic violence - Meaningful Skill Evolutions & Mergings (Similar in scope to Hell Difficulty Tutorial and Path to Transcendence) - Numbers going up - Biohacking & Body Modification
