About the Game

After suffering a prolonged disease, a girl named Lily dies and meets the False Light of the Great Devourer. Somehow something awakens within her and she is able to perceive the horror at the last moment. She runs away and stumbles upon Amok who reveals her that she is in the Imaginary World. Reluctantly, Amok agrees to help her escape the Cycle of Devouring and to teach her magic and to follow her through her own hell.
