Synopsis[]

Part One[]

Safely tucked away inside the hollow earth where humanity survived after Ragna Rok, precocious young Lilja receives visions of a new darkness taking root on the surface. Defying her elders, Lilja awakens the timeless oracle—once known as Frankenstein—to investigate the warnings and, perhaps, even explore the new world above.

Part Two[]

As Lilja and Frankenstein explore the vibrant world around them, they rescue someone who introduces them to the new race of man. But unbeknownst to them, evil lurks within the shadows, tracking our heroes while sowing seeds of death and destruction.

Part Three[]

Having made contact with some of the new worlds mysterious inhabitants, Frank and Lilja continue their search for the "Star Lady." But the danger they're trying to prevent has already caught their scent literally and now it's a race for what could be the fate of the reborn world.

Part Four[]

Lilja and Frankenstein's exploration of the surface world takes a dangerous turn—between monstrous people and genuine monsters, not everyone will survive.
