Long ago, fire became even deadlier to humans than before. Anyone too close to natural flame would combust, causing a global disaster that drove humanity into darkness. Many years into the rebuilding of the world, two young people become embroiled in the struggles between powerful factions and must brave monsters, divine magic, and a wildly fluctuating quality of animation to survive a confoundingly vague plot. Take a listen to our thoughts as we puzzle out what happened in this weird series.
