The story is set in the late 22nd century. Political instability and disease have decimated the world population. The United States has been hit particularly hard and it's population has dwindled. Asian corporations have bought the remaining urban centers within America and sealed them within geodesic domes. Protected from disease, pollution, and crime within these cities, life continues with all the convenience and ease that technology can provide. Citizens are housed and cared for, while machines see to their every whim. However, the price for such a life of luxury is a police state that allows for zero dissent.
Outside these dome cities, the wilderness is lawless, but free. People live according to their own vision. Some live off of the discarded technology of the past. Repurposing computers, and bits of robotics for survival and profit. Some use violence as a means of survival. Others practice magick and the dark arts, manipulating the boundaries between science and the supernatural.
One such group is called the Circle of Eyes. They are an ancient group of witches, whose traditions go back a thousand years. They eschew technology and focus instead on refining their abilities in sorcery. They live in self-imposed exile within their labyrinthine complex, constantly searching for more mystic knowledge. Some who reside there, came seeking refuge from a world that offered only ignorance and brutishness. Others were born within the walls of their tower.
Our hero, a girl named Iris, has returned from Kaigara City where she has been living for over a year. She had wanted nothing more than to escape from the isolated world of the Circle, where she was born, and spend her life living "normally" in the city. However, when the telepathic connection she has always shared with her mother is abruptly severed, Iris knows that her mother is in danger. She must return home. Home to the CIRCLE OF EYES.
