18 years, 18 years since the world ended.
Nothing remains of the earth that once was. No birds flying freely, no sheep frolicking.
Where there was once intelligent life, nothing but shadows remain.
If there was a way all this catastrophe could be stopped, would it be worth fighting for? Or is the world doomed to remain as a barren wasteland?
“Are we the only species that ever existed?”
One young shadow monster, cursed by his curiosity, decided to look for answers.
He stumbled onto ancient ruins with drawings on the walls telling tales of great jumping creatures that navigated through the heavens to fight the great evil.
He craved to learn these great skills and trained in the art of the jump. Perhaps he might be able to even venture to space one day and meet this great evil for himself.
Until one day, the shadow elders caught wind of his activities, for exploring the ancient ruins is forbidden by shadow law. When the shadow monster was asked to explain his crimes, he said he wanted to fight the great evil and restore the world to what it once was.
The shadow elders did not take this answer kindly. As punishment, they marked the shadow monster as a fugitive doomed to be hunted down by the shadows that he was born from.
His valued friends have now become his mortal enemies in the form of spike beds, wheels, and other deadly traps. The shadow monster has to leave what he once knew behind and go the way of his heroes. By doing what they did best...JUMP.
