Götterdämmerung :: Twilight of the Gods

A world destroyed by nuclear war...
A conspiracy to free mankind by all means necessary...

A mysterious amulet that may be the key to many secrets...
A guitarist in search of the greatest song in the world...
Welcome to the world of Götterdämmerung!
In the year 2012, a series of unexplained terrorist attacks pushes the world into nuclear war; civilization as we know it is completely destroyed. The war's few survivors gather in small villages and struggle against famine and disease. In the following decades, six charismatic leaders appear in various parts of the globe and begin shaping new civilizations from the ruins. It does not take long before these new empires start to fight among each other, and new wars break out.
Slowly, gradually, the new empires learn to live with each other; today, one hundred years after the nuclear war, the world lives in a fragile peace.

When a mysterious flying object falls into his father's cabbage patch, his life is suddenly about to become a lot more interesting...
