About THE LAST REMNANT

Story

In ancient times, mysterious artifacts referred to as Remnants were
discovered all over the world. Offering incredible power, they soon came into
the hands of the covetous few, and thus was the world’s delicate equilibrium
shattered. The people were divided into those who ruled and those who were
ruled over. War was inevitable. Our story begins a thousand years later …

Rush lives with his sister Irina on the secluded Eulam Island, a place far
removed from the ceaseless battle for control over the Remnants which rages on
the mainland. However, his peaceful life is shattered one day when he
witnesses his sister’s abduction by a mysterious group of soldiers. He
immediately sets off after them, ill-prepared for the evils of the outside
world but determined to find his sister at any cost.
