A hundred years ago, the town of Alamos was shaped around an incredible workshop of sound and sight, built by the restless architect Godey. He designed an enormous network of musical instruments housed within the Space-Time Towers, a place where music and mystery could bend space itself. In his diary, a chilling nightmare was written down and later found by his great-grandson, the scientist Tonio Koji Yamamoto. The entry warned that two powerful beings that should never meet would cross paths in a space-time rift, their fury capable of enveloping the town and bringing it to collapse.
