The Lifetime’s War has raged for centuries, leaving combatants on both sides of the conflict with no understanding of why they fight. Each side knows only to trust in the monocles they wear and the knowledge it provides, marking who is their foe and who is not, so they may lay down their lives if necessary to become one with The Rising.
After a devastating battle, a soldier and a medic, each from opposing sides, find themselves alone and separated from their troops, forced to rely on one another in order to survive the harsh winter elements without a functioning monocle to tell them who to trust or what to believe.
