Story

Meet Yukumo, a young girl traversing the world in her beloved airship. Upon arriving at a particular Far Eastern town to run some errands, her airship suddenly breaks down. She decides to explore the town to search for parts for repair; however, the town has fallen silent with no trace of the people who live there, the only inhabitants being a strange cat-like species.

The Town

Sanctuaries

Your Airship

Hop aboard Yukumo's trusty airship to explore piers, valleys, and lakes. Gather the Sources of Earth to expand your scope of your adventure even further.
