Amelia vonstadt, an avid treasure hunter and explorer had always been into history and mythology even since she was a kid, she was born in a middle-class family in Kyoto, Japan. Her father was from England and mother was Japanese. She lost her father at a very young age who was an archeologist when 
he was on an expedition, but they never knew how he died. She would always read books and articles related to ancient mysteries. Ever since she had an affinity towards history, she had decided to become an archeologist in hopes that she could explore and unravel the mysteries hidden within the planet. But there was a corporation called Maxtek Corp that was supposedly retrieving powerful artifacts from the black market and using their mysterious powers to build something that would cause the whole world to plummet into an eternal state of war, Amelia had heard a lot about them from her father’s old books and diaries which let her to believe that they were the ones behind her father’s disappearance. As time went on and she kept completing expeditions, she eventually encountered a lot of other illegal organizations that were behind these artifacts. Due to this she learned martial arts and gymnastics which helped her turn the tide in her favor if she ever ran into any of these organizations during her research and expeditions. She completed her studies in the fields of archeology and paleontology and started travelling around the world to uncover various artifacts and mysterious treasures.  One day she was venturing with her team in Katakuri forest in Shinjuku, Japan in search of a lost artifact that was said to have mysterious powers. Little did she know that things were about to get messy for her and her team. As they were exploring, they were chased by a bear which made them split up, she lost her team and couldn’t contact them as there was no signal. She ventured forward and found a mysterious abandoned temple in the forest and went in to explore it, the temple looked like it had been abandoned for years as all the effigies and statues in the temple were collecting dust. It was a Buddhist temple and there were sacred ropes wrapped around the temple which were used to ward of malicious entities which almost insinuated that there was something in the temple that shouldn’t be tampered or messed with. After observing all this she saw that there was an empty doorway that led to nowhere, Amelia was confused as to why Just then she realizes that the temple gates shut down and she got locked in. She explores the temple and finds a weird doorway that was supposedly glowing. Curious enough, Amelia headed towards it and got sucked into it, which caused her to travel to another realm. Everything seemed whirly around her until she landed in a weird place. It almost seemed like something out of a science fiction movie.  Weird trees and creatures were roaming all around. She was astonished just as much as she was scared. Lost in an unknown world, Amelia explores and 
finds herself stuck in an unreal and ethereal world and it’s up to her to find a way out and solve this mystery.
