Story / It is a place called The Cage

A girl awakens on a cold stone floor. She finds herself in an infinitely vast place filled with buildings that touch the very sky.

To reclaim what she has lost—and atone for her sins—she sets off on a journey through this place of unknown creation.

  • Mama: A mysterious creature who calls herself Mama. She seems to know something about The Cage, and acts as a guide for the girl.
