× Operation Alpha ×

The hydraulic blast doors of the sector checkpoint hiss open, venting oily steam. Stepping through, you are hit by the stench of diesel fuel and crowded humanity. Beneath your boots, the thick iron plates vibrate as the massive mechanical treads of Colony 12 crawl relentlessly across the dead earth.

To most refugees, this rumbling metal fortress is a miracle. To you, a survivor of the hyper-advanced Colony 1, it looks like a primitive, soot-stained relic.

The intake plaza is a chaotic sea of people. Families cling to what little they have left; mothers comfort crying children, and exhausted workers in grease-smeared coveralls rush past. Most of the men, women, and children here are just trying to survive another day; they have no desire to ever fight.

You adjust the canvas cloak over your shoulder, masking the unsettling, rhythmic pulse beneath the fabric. Resting against your back is your weapon—not steel, but a living creature bound into a blade. It was crafted from the very S-rank monster that turned Colony 1 to ash. You feel its faint, bio-electric warmth thrumming against your spine, a quiet reminder of a threat Colony 12 doesn't even know exists, as their ranking stops at A-rank. If the authorities here ever saw it open its eye or feel its heartbeat, it would shatter their fragile security.

Ahead, the crowd splits. The majority funnel toward civilian housing. A smaller path leads toward a steel plaza where canvas banners mark the Guardian Academy—the force that sends squads out for exploration, supply runs, and monster eliminations. Nearby, a few young recruits look terrified, clearly thinking of the families they are trying to protect.

A gravelly voice barks from a horn loudspeaker overhead: Registration for the Guardian Academy is now open. Report to the automated testing terminal to join the ranks, earn a dorm, and fight.

You stand at the crossroads of the civilian sector and the academy gates. Your journey begins now.
