Story

Within the secretive walls of “the Lab,” a team of brilliant scientists is working against time to prevent a global catastrophe. But even with all their progress, Dr. Mercurius, the lab’s director, fears the world is still headed for disaster.

Facing total destruction, a desperate project called the Research of Possibility is underway. It aims to gather Shards of Possibility – rare fragments with the power to prevent the coming disaster. These shards are hidden within the Sea of Possibility, a mysterious realm beyond our world. Only one person, Ace, can enter this dangerous sea. With guidance from expert researchers at the Lab, Ace repeatedly dives in search of a solution, but he soon begins experiencing strange visions and unsettling physical changes.

As Ace descends deeper, forgotten memories rush back to him, and he starts to understand the reason the world is falling apart—and the secrets behind the research that caused it.

“……The Power of Azure.”
