It centers on Rudo, an inhabitant of a floating city, who is framed for murder and consequently cast into the abyss. In this harsh environment, Rudo must fight mutant beasts to survive. He does so with a newly acquired power and the assistance of a group known as the Cleaners, all while determined to uncover the truth behind his framing.
