    Summary

    Cloud Strife was never meant to see the end of his world.

    Cryogenized due to illness, he slept through Gaia’s fall—a catastrophe even his friends failed to prevent.
    Five hundred years later, he awakens in an unfamiliar city. A world that moved on without him.

    Alone.

    But grief is a luxury this new life won’t allow. As days pass, Cloud finds himself drawn into the lives of strangers, quietly fixing problems that were never his to solve. Yet the truth he carries—Gaia’s fate as well as the power of mako running through his veins—is knowledge that must remain buried if he wishes to survive.

    Shortly after, rumors spread across the city. A new vigilante has begun moving through the shadows. Though unseen and unknown to the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, their actions seem guided by the same course of action :

    They seek justice, they bring change, they reveal truth.

    And chasing them is futile when one is blinded by hollow convictions.
    But answers are never easy to find through chaos. They say it lies in its source — in the eye of the storm.
