The fifth entry in Liarsoft's Steampunk Series is a mysterious fairy-tale in which fantasy and reality intertwine. The story unfolds from the perspectives of two women: one who travels through the ruins of Engine City New York, destroyed in an unexplained disaster some years before; and one who finds herself in an underground world with a purple sky, where the "vanished" city still stands.

The central focus of the tale is Lily, a girl devoid of memories who sets off through the bizarrely transformed "Underground New York." Driven by her determination to reach the "ends of the sky," she travels through this dangerous world accompanied by an enigmatic young man known as A. In the course of her long and difficult journey, they meet many of the city's inhabitants, and fend off the attacks of strange and terrifying monsters.

Key Features:

  • Dramatic Storyline Penned by Hikaru Sakurai: Enjoy a deep storyline full of action, mystery, and dramatic encounters in this 30+ hour tale written by Hikaru Sakurai, the author of the Fate/Prototype novel series, Satsuriku no Matrix Edge, as well as Fate/Samurai Remnant, and more.
  • Lovecraftian Horrors: Immerse yourself in world full of strange and esoteric steampunk devices fueled by eldritch science and invented by the geniuses of history tapping into things from beyond that were never meant to be understood.
  • Strong Cast of Unique Characters: The great tragedy that befell New York City has transformed the residents as well as the ruined city they now live in. The many strong personalities Lily will encounter on her travels have each suffered and been altered by the disaster in their own ways, yet still they strive towards their own goals. Some may aid Lily, some may oppose her journey, and others will teach her valuable lessons along the way.

What lies at the end of the road Lily travels? How is she connected to the woman exploring the ruins on the surface? And why was New York destroyed? In the course of their journeys, many mysteries will be unraveled...
