   Summary

   In the 2050s, The United States, now under a dictatorship, falls to a mysterious virus turning people into zombies. 6 years later, the kingdom of Novara rules over the fallen country. The wealthy live like kings in a walled off city while the common people live herded up in 10 sectors. People with magical abilities are exploited for the rich.

   Once a popular ghost hunter, Ryan Bergara now spends his days working at a brothel to feed his younger sisters. Shane has disappeared after being drafted, and his other family members are either dead or missing. After an incident during a purge of his sector, he and his sisters are forced to retrieve an alleged cure with a group of fellow "rebels". As their journey goes on, more secrets are unveiled. In the end, they must decide if the future of humanity is worth sacrificing everything they stand for.
