In a solarpunk future, the society of New Kansai makes extraordinary technological advances without sacrificing their responsibility to the natural world. A young man, Hugo, resides in the high-tech metropolis of their society’s Capital. He doesn’t understand why people live outside the city, using technology to co-exist in harmony with nature.

Meanwhile, New Kansai's resource abundance causes tensions to rise with a society to the east – a metropolis of unsanctioned technology and corruption, threatening New Kansai’s sustainable way-of-life. The results of the new council’s election force Hugo to fight to save everything he loves. All while harbouring a secret that might outcast him in his own society...
