Prologue: About Wellsworth

It was a city in the United Kingdom, known for its Filipino culture and hospitality. Home to 5,000, most of which are immigrants from Asia. It was the epicenter of a 2035 epidemic, which has claimed a total of 10,000 lives.

It was also located next to the Wellsworth River, after which the city was named. The river was a minor trade route, only supplying goods to Wellsworth and its neighboring towns Finburg and Denburg.

A city of simplicity, where neighbors knew each other, where you can feel the sense of home. It has 2 jeepneys running around the city, serving passengers everyday.

It also boasted its own underwater highway system, where a large sheet of glass divided the river and the bustling area below. The system also provided a way for Wellsworth’s citizens to travel to other towns by road.

But now, when the epidemic struck the city, together with neighboring towns, it was a total disaster. There was also an unforeseen disaster that almost ruined the city, damaging every structure except for a lucky few.

Now, the population was cut by half. The 2,500 people that survived hopes to restore the city they loved back to its old glory.
