Everyone in the Ashland believes: Deep within a certain ruin buried away by danger and famine, a path leading to a new world awaits. To step into the new world, one only needs to find a special key and open that certain door.

There, the land is bountiful, as if milk and honey flows through it. The sunlight is dazzling, as if coldness and darkness are washed away. The people will no longer have to face desolation, monsters, infections, mutations, and dangerous things of all kinds.

There, children are joyous, adults are happy, everything is fine as they are supposed to be.

Every Antiquarian, Ruin Hunter, and History Researcher in The Ashland knows: They are in the new world.
