When a sudden, unprecedented event causes a heavy rain of countless
giant leeches across the small globe, a group of heroes come together
to summon an obscure, ancient deity to bestow his powers upon them
so they can save the world. Despite the success of the summoning, the
Sentinels of Anathema lose millions of lives. The deity, Anathema,
relays how the remaining humans can live blissfully without damaging
and angering the world again.
So, the Sentinels of Anathema build 35 cities and surround each
with tall curtain walls as barriers between nature and man, and the
remaining humans live in the cities under their authority to ensure
there are no mishaps. One night, one of the cities is attacked and
burned to the ground by a mysterious being akin to the Sentinels, who
believes the Sentinels of Anathema are evil and seeks to slaughter all
of them and all of their people.
He films himself committing the holocaust and leaves the film
in one of the Sentinels� cities so they find it. The Sentinels keep
this attack under wraps and send The Jackal after the mass
murderer, but this only leads to him planting information in The
Jackal�s mind in an attempt to pit the Sentinels against each other.
