Download Orphan [Ch.2.5]

Marring the frigid surface of a doomed planet lies an impossibly massive crater, so wide that one could never hope to see the other side with their naked eye, or the crumbling edge high above. Looming in the dark abyss of space above, a purple gas giant seems close enough to touch, casting a luminous violet haze over much of the world. Smothering one side of the bowl lies a sprawling city-state, Cradle, where rampant and relentless slavery fuels the day-to-day misery of the multiracial mass within. The cracked, cobbled streets descend far down into the earth, where the poorest and lowliest lie, steam seeping through a ruined labyrinth of pitch-black alleys and shadow-filled lairs. Here begins a tale of a boy who had his destiny stolen away from him. What follows determines whether or not he is able to steal it back.
