Storyline
In the year 2435, the remote mining planet of Hillys is under siege by a race of aliens known as the DomZ, who abduct its people to drain their life force or turn them into slaves. A military regime called the Alpha Sections has risen to power promising to defend the population, yet it seems unable to stop the attacks, and an underground resistance called the IRIS Network suspects the two are secretly in league. Into this conflict steps Jade, a young photojournalist who lives in an island lighthouse that shelters children orphaned by the DomZ, alongside her boar-like companion Uncle Pey'j. When a photography assignment draws Jade into IRIS's investigation, she is recruited as an agent and sets out to expose the truth behind the disappearances plaguing Hillys.Read more
