      Lore

      Welcome to the world of Ink Rain.

      You are Linkisa, a man who has forgotten his own name, stripped of his past and bound to a single purpose: serve the Empire of Orana. Tasked with carrying out its will, you must recover your lost memories while hunting down the Supreme Leader of the Voroma Organization.

      But you are not alone.

      By your side exists Aloka, your living shadow, a mysterious entity bound to you. Together, you seep into the minds of the powerful, spreading disorder and bending the balance of power.

      As you journey through a rain soaked and fractured land, questions begin to emerge. What was taken from you? What is Aloka and what is its true purpose? And what does the Empire truly seek?

      Fight as a powerful being, shape your destiny, and restore order, or uncover a truth that was meant to remain hidden.
