00:00When the stars aligned once again in the eternal cycle of time, the Great Old Ones tore the veil between the planes of existence, bringing chaos and madness to Earth.
00:11One man saw it coming.
00:14Howard Phillips Lovecraft.
00:17Foreseeing the apocalypse, together with a chosen few called the Dreamers, he devised a plan to save humanity.
00:24They entered the Dreamlands through self-induced slumber, joining the sharpest minds that live beneath our reality.
00:33They gave birth to the last hope of humanity, the Rail Gods.
00:38Meanwhile, in the waking world, survivors struggled in the last strongholds of humanity.
00:44Magic stations along the endless railways protected from the madness by giant shielding domes.
00:50Twenty-five years have passed.
00:54The Dreamers are now awakening with a new powerful weapon.
00:58The Rail Gods, behemoths of Shoggoth, Plasm, and Iron, the only ones able to roam through the wastelands of Esteria, preparing humans to rise against the Great Old Ones.
01:10Their power is only rivaled by their hunger.
01:13They demand flesh.
01:14They demand sacrifice.
01:16They need to be nurtured.
01:17They need to evolve.
01:20In their dark powers lies the key to humanity's survival.
01:25For its end, plead the resistance against the Great Old Ones.
01:30Become their evil.
01:32And banish them once and for all.
