Two hundred and fifty years ago, a red star fell from the heavens and brought with it a horrifying invasion. Humanity is dying. Demons overrun the world, killing those who venture beyond the city walls. Two girls, Hannah and Aytan, join a new mage squad formed under secretive conditions. Can their efforts turn the tide before it is too late?

* AmbiguouslyBrown: Although the girls seem like they come from a variety of backgrounds, no actual ethnicities are specified. That said, Mina's features seem heavily Indian inspired.
* ArmorIsUseless: Originally not the case, until the whole world was set on fire with the demonic invasion. People have since discarded them in favor of greater mobility since magic has been discovered.
* CitadelCity: Humanity was quickly forced back to only five remaining megacities in the face of the initial demonic onslaught.
* CrapsackWorld: Entire world's been killed and everyone that survived is stuck in one of five cities. Humanity's numbers are also slowly but surely dwindling, limiting their ability to project power that much less every year.
