After his father’s death, a man’s life is afflicted with uncontrollable repressed memories, so vivid, it seems as if he travels back into the memories, but with no way to control them, it’s difficult to define what is real, and what is not. One day, he experiences an unknown memory and learns about the Ring Of Consciousness, which heightens senses, controls the mind and memories. To find the ring, he must reach his father’s old house in the old area of Arch city, a mysterious city like no other, viciously controlled by people living in the shadows, who do not seem who they appear to be. In search for his father’s house, the man risks his life, and faces life threatening situations, until he falls and gets locked in a dark empty room. What unfolds after the dark room, shows him the difference between reality and illusions.
