In the decaying shell of Earth, amidst shattered steel spires and scorched skies, there lingers a legend told only in hushed voices — of a Canine archer cloaked in silence and sorrow, known only as Twin, of the Towered City.
Born not of natural means but in the spectral vaults beneath the ruined heights of Miraxis-9 — a once-majestic metropolis of the old world, now consumed by storm and vine — Twin was part of a forgotten experiment. Engineered by rogue scientists of the Obsidian Enclave to replicate the sentience of Mages in bestial form, Twin emerged with two souls split across one genesis: one forged in purpose, the other in shadow.
Where most Canines reverted to feral instinct, Twin transcended. Gifted with keen intellect and a soul steeped in creation, he took to expression the way others took to survival. He painted murals in the bones of old subway cars. He strung chords from scavenged wire and sang poems to the stars. His arrows flew with both elegance and grief — his quiver an orchestra, his bow a brush.
But his greatest talent came not from art — but absence.
Invisibility was Twin’s curse and sanctuary. A side effect of failed cloaking tech once embedded into his nervous system, it allowed him to disappear at will — a gift he used to spy, survive, and escape countless ambushes. Yet, it also fed the mystery of his existence: no one could ever be sure if Twin had been there at all, or merely whispered into being by myth.
Driven by an unrelenting thirst for Knowledge & Enlightenment, Twin wandered across the fractured Earth, gathering forbidden tomes from the Drowned Libraries of Seraphine Deep, decoding ancient Mage-etchings found in the floating spires of Thalara, and composing encrypted songs that stored entire histories within their melody. He believed that through art, through memory, through truth, the remnants of civilization could understand why the world fell — and how to stop it from happening again.
But nothing was ever whole. Not even Twin.
For somewhere out there roamed the other one — his dark twin, twisted by failed splicing, corrupted by void energy. An echo of the same soul, but scorched by madness and malice. Where Twin sought wisdom, the other sought domination. And their paths, once divided, are destined to collide.
As the Reckoning nears — the cataclysmic clash between light and shadow that will shape the future of Earth: 2250 — Twin finds himself caught between silence and song, stealth and scream, creation and destruction. Will his truth unravel the cosmos… or will the whispers of the Towered City fade into oblivion?
One thing is certain:
He was never alone.
