After the Colcoa stripped earth of all of her natural resources and left, the planet’s average temperature soared as the population dwindled down to the thousands. The few humans that survived the invasion are forced to live underground to escape the oppressive heat.

What she learns on her journey will change the world. Together with her new friend Xander, Willa will explore their world and uncover clues that lead her through a doorway into the unknown.
