Two Face World
In the rain-veiled world of Astea, the sky has not cleared for generations. Beneath eternal gray clouds, humanity survives through artificial sunlight, indoor cities, and fragile alliances built on fear, profit, and power.
On rare nights, a crystalline droplet known as an Astea Tear falls from the heavens—granting miraculous abilities called Asten-Drives, while condemning their bearers to irreversible side effects. These miracles fuel empires, criminal syndicates, governments, and faiths alike.
After the death of his mother, Nickle Amacaria, a former vigilante haunted by recent loss and resentment, receives an unexpected invitation from the rising Wingarde Family—a powerful organization determined to challenge the rain itself. Drawn by shared ideals and unresolved grief, Nickle leaves his past behind, puts on a new face and hoping for new expectations and expereiences and journeys to the vast metropolis city of Eura-unichario, where disputes between families, associations, syndicates, factions, and even the government itself erupt daily beneath the unchanging sky.
As Nickle takes on new missions, forges bonds, and confronts enemies shaped by the same cursed miracles, he starts to wonder if the rain he hates may or may not be a disaster—maybe even be a foundation holding the world together? Is the sun still even there, hiding behind the thick grey rain clouds? Who even knows...
Because in a city where every single type of power you could possibly think of has a price and every ideal casts a shadow, Nickle must decide what kind of future is worth fighting for.
Because in Astea, every miracle has two faces.
