- Synopsis
- The citizens of Hypogeum are struggling for survival centuries after a global disaster wipes out most of the planet and the majority of the human race. The sealed off, self sufficient world they live in is lacking in privacy, freedom, and fresh air. Problems arise as the synthetic habitat's strictly enforced social castes struggle to coexist. Of the Hypogeum citizens, the wildly corrupt Orcus family reigns over the toxic bubble of stone and steel. The origin of the family's power is a mystery, yet the Orcus' manage to terrorize the population with spying cameras and a team of Deathsmen. The masked Winnower is appointed to rid the decaying society of sinners. However, the Winnower's own tarnished past causes him to reevaluate his morally driven agenda.
