The nation has developed its own energy source, the “dragon vein,” and has achieved a unique development mixed with science and traditions in the Edo period.

However, behind such a gorgeous city, the dissident organization Kuchinawa smolders the flames of revolution and aims to overthrow the government.”Nue”, the dark organization of the Tokugawa government, was entrusted to exterminate the rebellions.
