Welcome to the dark and merciless realm of our action-adventure RPG There Is No Light, coming to Xbox on August 1, 2023. Get ready to embark on a treacherous journey through the grim Underground world. Brace yourself for intense battles, ruthless enemies, formidable bosses, and the freedom to explore the vast world of the game the way you want.
In today’s post, we’d like to bring you a concise and easily digestible summary of the game’s captivating lore. Hopefully, it will offer you a clearer understanding of the enigmatic Underworld and the path our valiant Hero treads.
From the outset, the Church swiftly seized control over Central Station, establishing an iron grip on the heart of this desolate realm. Bolstered by the indomitable Sun Corps, the Church’s formidable army, they possessed unrivaled strength, thanks to their access to an infinite reserve of the mystical substance known as Wax. This extraordinary resource bestowed upon them unparalleled vigor and vitality, surpassing all others who inhabited the Station.
To this day, Central Station stands as the most coveted place within the entire Underworld, beckoning countless souls who yearn for its relative comfort and refuge. Alas, such aspirations are often thwarted, for the Station remains closed to visitors for the majority of the year, with a single exception—the fateful day of Ascension.
Once in a great while, within the majestic confines of the Great Hand’s temple, nestled in the heart of Central Station, an arcane ritual unfolds. This solemn ceremony demands the sacrifice of innocent newborns. The Father, the revered leader of the Church, personally selects the children who will be offered to their God, the Hand, invoking ancient powers beyond mortal comprehension. These very gates, which once ushered the Church’s faithful into this world, now accept the innocent infants, leading them to an unknown fate.
Tragically, the child of our Hero, the central figure in this tale, falls victim to one of these chilling rituals. Driven by unwavering determination, our protagonist embarks on a daring quest to disrupt the sacred Ascension at any cost. Little does he know that his actions will set in motion a cataclysmic chain of events that will reshape this world forever.
As you dive deeper into the rich tapestry of our game’s lore and story, you will unravel the intricacies of the Underworld, understand the Hero’s noble purpose, and witness a captivating tale of heroism and defiance.
