Shroud Power Plants. Long had passed since such a name caused a scandal. The inventor was a scientist who was often called delusional, but he never denied these claims. During one interview, he was asked whether or not SPPs were ethical. He replied by saying, “Scientists like me care not for ethics, for we have already sold our soul to progress.”

Much of the world has adopted the use of Shroud Power Plants, facilities that extract energy from a race of people known as shrouds. Shrouds are beings who are able to transform into demonic forms resembling various beasts. Because of this, the government of Vergessenheit had created the Shroud Procurement and Countermeasures Bureau (SPCB) in order to capture shrouds and use them to power the country.

A young shroud man, named Aster, works as a shroud hunter, killing people of his own kind so that he can one day become human.

The only way that Aster can achieve his goal is to follow the Arbiters' orders, but will his efforts may only lead to suffering.
