During the latter parts of the 19th century the world was thrown into an ambulant energy crisis. In desperation, a team of scientists resorted to an experimental and dangerous solution: the draining of celestial energy from parallel dimensions. But instead of discovering a rich world from which they could drain their precious energy, they entered a void. In order for the universe to maintain the balance, the dimension from which the scientists hailed was replicated to fill the void that the new-born dimension had opened up. In a matter of nanoseconds there suddenly were two parallel worlds based off of the same mould and the portal that was opened from the “old” world collapsed. The scientists whose experiment had ended in disaster and several deaths got frightened and permanently rejected the technology and abandoned the research center.

But, on the other side, in the replicated dimension the results truly astonished the clones of the researchers of the old world and this new, revolutionary technology was embraced and led to a technological renaissance that lasted for almost two thousand years. All this, while the old world struggled to get by with few technological progressions, generation after generation.

The replicated world was to be known as Antigrafi by it's inhabitants while the other, old world was named Katagogi, and while the scientists of Antigrafi were aware of its twin dimension, the scientists in Katagogi remained eternally unknowing of Antigrafi.

Though, living the utopian dream does not make a world invulnerable. In time, the ignorance and the neglecting of the natural balance by the people of Antigrafi resulted in what's come to be known as Soldurma: the rapid withering of the ozone layer, resulting in the obliteration of the majority of the worlds population as well as making large parts of the planet uninhabitable due to extreme levels of radiation. After years of neglect, the planet fought back. In time, the degradation came to a halt and the remaining humans started to re-structure their lost societies.

Our story takes place about three hundred years after the events of Soldurma came to a halt where Antigrafi is starting to, once again, get into balance.

Isak Block is a professor in historical linguistics in Katagogi, who is offered a strangely well-payed job in southern Turkey. He accepts the job solely in order to pay for the treatment of his dying twin-brother.

Katagogi is a bleak, industrial nightmare, highly over-populated and over-polluted. Isak travels to his destination in a mountain range in southern Turkey. During all of this time, he can't shake off the uneasy feelings related to the nature of the job.

On his first day on the job, he travels to what seems to be an abandoned research facility that predates anything he's ever worked with. Shortly after entering one of the buildings, his clumsy college accidentally starts some kind of machine. They try to escape the room, but the attempt is to no avail. The room vaporizes around them and everything turns blindingly white.

The next thing he knows, he's laying in the sand on the floor of an old stone room with his college's lifeless body right next to him.
