In a world ravaged by a super virus known as "The Great Crisis of Man", the final humans struggle to survive within a domed-in city. Joseph — a lowly cubicle worker for the government — awakens from a prophetic dream during work, leading him to believe that he knows how to find the meaning of life. The first step on his list is to do the unthinkable: break out of the city. After risking his life and leaving everything he knew behind, Joseph soon comes to realize that the outside world is not dead as he was led to believe. Civilizations begin to rebuild under the law of life and death, harnessing the ancient and rediscovered powers of magic. The outside world is cruel and unforgiving, but Joseph's eyes are locked on an ominous mountain looming in the distance.
