They halted Panagea's decay. Some gave everything for the good of the land. For the good of the people. But the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the iron fence. The efforts of Nicholai, Umbriel, Kazuaki, and the crew welcome the purifying breath of nature back into a depleted, metal world. But it isn't all they invite back. The archaic gods and goddesses of Panagea's past, forgotten long ago, when mankind realized they could answer their own prayers with machines, return. While humanity was quick to forget them, the gods never forgot the betrayal they suffered from those who created them. Those who were supposed to love them. With new changes allowing them to crawl back into the forefront of men's thoughts, they intend to issue a painful reminder. As Nicholai and the others scramble to contain the gods' wrath, they learn the only advice they have is absent of any comfort. Hold fast. Keep your wits about you. And most important of all... no matter what else you do... don't pray.
