About
Ancient. Rampant. Tectonic.
A series of events has led a group of investigators to uncover EONS’ operation to steal and mass-produce Zoha Hedad’s Flexible Steel. Zoha, currently based at Candela, has revealed disturbing details about the origins of her ideas—the voice that whispers in her mind. Omroan, the mysterious not-a-lightkeeper, has called upon specialized individuals from various backgrounds. Their mission: to uncover the true nature of this disembodied voice and the forces behind it.
This mini-campaign is inspired by Women in STEM! Many themes will relate to discoveries and inventions by women, as well as their backstories.
