However, several underground factions sense that a change is on the horizon and begin to make their move. Meanwhile, Spriggan Van Arkride begins an independent investigation, triggered by a visit from an unexpected person. The game will seek to uncover the mystery behind the massacre, and the fate of Agnes as she seeks the Eighth Genesis.
