What happens when a society ruled by gods learns that those they had worshipped are gone?  The Hundred Gods governed the lands of Inner and Outer Auracae from its centre: the Marble Heartland. They built magical aqueducts that brought water and life to the world. Through their power, they brought the many races of the world together into a unified empire. But within a single day, the Heartland stopped beating. The gods dissappeared and the aqueducts ran dry.  Tiln, a simple farmer and a mute bears witness to the death of an empire- and must survive in a world where society is in the process of breaking apart.
