In the past several decades the YU’s Pelagium research has rapidly advanced under the supervision of renowned scentist Toerwahn Tijksyn. With his recent disappearance, research has stalled. His daughter, Mira Tijksyn, is sent on an expedition escorted by members of the secretive YU State Security. There, she begins to understand the source of her father’s discoveries.
