Synopsis

A fantasy drama set in a distant dystopian future about two individuals from worlds away who find love in each other and are gifted with the rarest of phenomena: the Bond. Its preservation is paramount in the fight to renew a sense of hope for a better future. If Oriana and Roan can unite the long disconnected Factions and find a way to topple the totalitarian Reign, they may be able to open the gate to The New Tomorrow.

An incomplete Mosaic known as the Apocalypse, becomes the catalyst for a hostile Rift between the once united leadership of The Order. The Reign would use the Apocalypse to manipulate their way into seizing total control of Promethus as the Wandered fled Akadia in possession of something with the potential to undermine the very foundation of the Reign’s power.

The Order would go on to become the Imperium under the Reign and they preyed on the fear evoked by the Apocalypse as means to enact their Righteous Imperative. Positioned as providing new purpose for the Fallen, there was no way of knowing this “righteous” pursuit was born of corrupted hearts until it was too late. The Imperium endeavoured to take control of the Factions and eliminate any potential threats to their Imperium. The Eternal Night was all but inevitable.

The Reign, however, were not the only ones in possession of the Mosaic made out to be the Apocalypse. It was also in the hands of the Wandered who would see to its completion by adding one single Image. When this Image was added, the Mosaic revealed the true nature of the Apocalypse, and would give hope for the future of all Factions. For contained within that single Image was an essential Echo. An Echo of a stranger with the power to decide the fate of the future. Preserved for generations, the Wandered would finally share their Mosaic among the Factions when they found the stranger revealed within. This Mosaic would become known as The Prophecy.

Roan, the bringer of the Eternal Night, or the hope for the New Tomorrow, must stare down his destiny as the Historian. Together with Oriana, his decision is made more a responsibility than a choice as their destinies become intertwined by the Bond.

The two must fight to preserve their Bond, overcome the Shadow's influence, and somehow lead the Factions of the Free in a rebellion against the Reign. Hand-in-hand, Oriana leads the love of her life in a fight for not just their own future, but for the future of all Factions.
