BEFORE PURIFICATION DAY

Beyond the Edge
of Perfect Civilization

Year 5488. Humanity calls the inside of the domes paradise and the outside blank. In that blank, life has already built its own order.

01 / ERA

The Golden Age Before Purification Day

After nuclear catastrophe and two world wars, AI, megacorporations, and the Neo Babylon order rebuilt civilization. Most humans live in domes, towers, floating cities, or high-seawall settlements; the rest of Earth has been redefined by mutant ecology.

02 / HUNT

Hunting Does Not Have to Mean Killing

Tracking, sampling, repelling, rescue, or changing an engineering route can all be part of a hunt. Sometimes the real target is a door, a net, or humanity’s bias toward the wild.

FIELD PARTNERS

Two Observers

Fang Chenxing / FANG

Treating the Unknown as a Language

A 22-year-old genetic-engineering doctor and BCI ecology researcher. Sharp and curious, she is the one who asks why a creature behaves the way it does.

Zheng Keshuang / K

Guarding Through Position

A young hunter responsible for tactics, survival, and extraction routes. Quiet and dryly humorous, he stands between Fang and danger more often than he explains himself.

Only the earliest journey records are public here. Their origins, abilities, and mainline fate remain for the prequel.
